Records fell this past week(end) as The Transformers topped almost all expectations and broke a couple of records.

There are some mitigating circumstances to deal with.
For instance, the midweek releases did pull some business from the weekend.

There was some good news over the weekend; the mini-slump ended as the overall box office pulled in $156 million, 1% over the same weekend last year. That's not a big increase, in fact, it is below ticket price inflation, but that's still something to celebrate and focusing on the good news is good for business.

Not the best week for sites as there was only one that had even a chance of winning, Surf's Up - Official Site. There were a couple others that showed potential, but they will need a little more work to win.
