People love to see sh*t blow up. Take, for instance, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, which opens this day. It’s a Michael Bay flick that’s currently sitting pretty at 21% on Rotten Tomatoes — but reviews be damned, studio executives expect the film to rake in about $175 million through the weekend.
