This staggering percentage means that over 500 showings of the film, which stars Shia LaBeouf, formerly of Disney Channel's "Even Stevens," are already sold out.
This also means that "Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen" might outsell the first film and it may also beat out J.J. Abrams' recent success, "Star Trek: The Future Begins."
What does this say about the tastes of America's moviegoers these days? Sadly, I think it means that people still love unrealistically hot girls, gratuitous violence and big, monstrous machines more than something as thought-provoking as Star Trek's science fiction and time travel any day.
Perhaps the longevity of the Star Trek legend will win out in the end - or maybe a J.J. Abrams sequel will give Optimus Prime and Shia LaBeouf a run for their money.
