| | Clarification request(s) and responseTomás Rosa Bueno: 6:42pm Mar 10, 2007: What is your context? A "blockbuster" was a WWII bomb, supposedly capable of razing a city block to the ground. Used for anything that is irresistibly powerful, especially in business. At the time it was translated as "arrasa-quarteirão".
