Having a quick look at BoxOfficeMojo you can see a nice comparison
page for the Domestic (US) takings of Transformers, Iron Man and
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. A basic summary breaks down as
follows
US Domestic earnings
Transformers: $319,246,193
Iron Man: $318,412,101
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen: $268,700,00
Worldwide Takings
Transformers: $708,252,592
Iron Man: $585,133,287
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen: $508,915,819
Interestingly
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen has now taken 68 million dollars
more (in the US) then it's cost to make, and is only $85million dollars
behind Iron Man's worldwide total takings. (Obviously there has
probably been an increase in box office pricing since the previous two
films).
Transformers Revenge of the Fallen is already the 38th highest grossing film in the US and 66th worldwide.

Hollywood Reporter is confirming that Paramount is reporting $60.6 million in ticket sales for Wednesday.
Also Variety.com have just reported that Revenge Of The Fallen has taken
a massive $60.6 million on it's opening day in the US, which is the
highest ever single day take from a Wednesday opening film and is the
second highest behind The Dark Knight's record of $67.2 million first
day (friday opening).
Paramount was looking for bigger with Michael Bay's highly anticipated Transformers sequel and it looks like they've got it. Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen debuted to a record $16 million last night, the most ever for a Wednesday midnight run. (Warner Bros.' The Dark Knight scored $18 million for its midnight run last year, but that was on a Friday.)
So how high will Transformers 2's
grosses go this weekend? Predictions have ranged anywhere from $125
million to $160 million for the five-day frame. Whatever the number, it
will be good news for the box office, which is having trouble
maintaining last summer's record draw.
