    I've never seen a PR show in my life and I loved this but you are absolutely right. 

     

    I still don't get why this wasn't in August. Right before kids went back to school, would have eked out a bit more.

     

    Agree,I think it massive 64 percent drops the weeks after it release would have been a lot less. If it wasn't going up against those blockbusters.

    I'm about as "general audience" as it gets when it comes to PR, and I liked the movie.

     

    The rest of it -- well, you're a fan and you wanted a particular thing. I understand you're disappointed. But Saban and Lionsgate are probably turning a healthy little profit on this, so it's hard to say they did anything horribly wrong from a business standpoint.

     

    How much profit can they really be turning from a movie that probably only manage 87M in US and 170 WW? And here a question if they did put another movie out. Would you see it?

  2. The movie flopped period. Some PR fans can spin all they want,but it flopped. Their are several reasons they did so. Number 1, the director. I don't care how nice the guy is or how much a fan of the series he was. Haim Saban should have never been allowed to pick the director period. Lionsgate should have paid Saban to not be involved with the project. When you let Saban to be hands on. Stuff going to be done on the cheap. Case and point hiring a Director from a movie that bombed before this one. Number 2,the release date. Any way you slice it putting it up against BATB,Kong,and Logan was asine period. Number 3,the promotion of the movie. It had very little promos,ad,etc in the US or OS. If you have faith in a project. You promote the hell out of it. Clearly Lionsgate/Saban did not have faith in it. Finally the tone of the movie. The movie should have been none stop action,martial arts,and explosions. That was what the general audience was expecting. What they got was breakfast club junior. The fandom may have loved that,but the general audience didn't.

    Is Power Rangers popular in China? 

     

    Super Sentai is. China even made their own version of Super Sentai. Don't know if that will translate into any good numbers though. Were going to have a clue about how it will fair in Asia in 2 weeks when it's in South Korea on April 20. But right now it doesn't even look like it will manage 100M OS when it's whole run is over.

    I don't know. China is quite unpredictable. Perhaps robots and monsters will get the attention from chinese people there.

     

    I expect this movie to perform like Pacific Rim. 

     

    I don't see that at this point. Not with (Not) Star Wars Smurfs 2 being released a week before. Also how does a movie only manage 42M OS in 3 weeks.. ugh!

  5. How did Kong do RTH?

     

    P.S. So for PR to reach the projected number of 6.3 from deadline of yesterday. It would need another 1.9 on Sunday. Right now it's two day total from Friday/Saturday is 4.4M. Whitewashed Smurfette is only .8 ahead of PR in it's second week of release. Got to wonder if Whitewashed Smurfette will even be in the top 10 next week. When it loses theaters. It will probably drop below Kong and PR next week for sure the way it's heading.
