As of Sunday, Transformers: Dark of the Moon has taken in $97.4 million domestically, easily good enough for #1 at the box-office.  But North America is just a slice of the financial pie, as the feature has amassed over $372 million worldwide.  Coming in second was Cars 2 with $25.1 million, and unfortunately the debuts of Tom Hanks’ feature Larry Crowne (#4, $13 million) and Monte Carlo (#5, $7.6 million) were less than stellar.  Here’s the top 10:

1.  Transformers: Dark of the Moon - $97.4 million

2.  Cars 2 - $25.1 million

3.  Bad Teacher - With an estimated $20 million budget, the Cameron Diaz flick has exceeded expectations, as it’s made over $77 million worldwide.  Stateside, the picture collected $14.1 million.

4.  Larry Crowne - $13 million

5.  Monte Carlo -  Even with a little help from Leighton Meester and Cory Monteith, Selena Gomez’s starring vehicle had a sub-par July 4th weekend.   $7.6 million

6.  Super 8 - $7.5 million

7.  Green Lantern - Hal Jordan (Ryan Reynolds) can conjure up anything he imagines with his all-powerful ring.  These days, Green Lantern needs to imagine a lot more greenbacks, as the film made just $6.3 million over the weekend.  Thanks to horrible reviews, the picture has made just $102 million domestically (an estimated $200 million budget).

8.  Mr. Popper’s Penguins - The Jim Carrey summer film has amassed just $50.1 million since its release, and this weekend it remained at the top 10 with $5.1 million.

9.  Bridesmaids - $3.5 million

10.  Midnight in Paris - $3.4 million
