'Transformers' rakes in $16 million


June 24, 2009 Revenge of the Fallen stormed about 3,000 locations Tuesday night, and the first midnight screenings of Michael Bay's action sequel captured a mighty $16 million. The Imax haul amounted to just over $1 million, surpassing Imax midnight record setter "The Dark Knight," which took in $675,000 on Imax screens last summer. The debut of the "Transformers" movie also overshadowed May's bow of Paramount's own "Star Trek," a Friday opener that collected $4 million at Thursday evening screenings and then took in another $3 million at midnight screenings.
