DotM becomes Paramount's first ever Billion dollar movie
According to Reuters, DotM has passed the billion US dollar mark globally (US$338million in Nth America, US$663million elsewhere), making it the first movie by Paramount to achieve this milestone in their 99 year history (obviously, if you took into account inflation, some older movies of theirs would equate to a billion-plus).
It is also the fifth year in a row that Paramount movies in the US have reached a combined billion dollar total at the box-office before any other movie studio, thanks to 6 consecutive movies of theirs this year that earnt over US$100million in Nth America each.
With that Billion dollar milestone, TF3 snuck its way into the top ten all time earners.
Interestingly (but not surprisingly), TF3 is still ahead of Harry Potter in America (it has never done as well in America as in other countries).
(it was also good to see that TF3 was #1 for 2 weeks, but HP was only #1 for 1 week)
