Taking this too seriously is not what critics are doing. The movie is just garbage. The trailers alone show that Elizabeth Banks in this film is essentially Faye Dunaway's Joan Crawford in green spandex.

 

That's hardly an insult, considering Dunaway's performance was fucking amazing. I get the feeling all you've seen of that movie is the "no wire hangers" clip. It would be rather consistent with your judging Banks' entire performance based on what's in the trailers.

Lol I just heard one of the Power Rangers is gay in this. Well, if the film flops, at least we know what excuse the naysayers will be using!

MMPR Polling/Sales Data Inside

 

MMPR OW interest ticked upward the last 3 weeks, keeping pace with the last TMNT - ultimately closing ahead by a healthy margin.  At the same time, the 'no interest' number saw its largest decrease in this final week - can only speculate why, though some possibilities are aggressive marketing or visibility of the trailer for those who had it in front of BTATB. Of those polled, less than 5% stated the reviews would weigh heavily in their decision to see (or not see) the film.  One possible way to look at this is that it reflects a hardcore fan base; the other is that potential ticketbuyers simply don't care about the reviews for this film.

As polling closed this past weekend, 22.4% of those who plan to see it OW noted that the trailer had no (or almost no) impact on their decision to see the film. I would have expected that to be much higher, suggesting that it may be attracting moviegoers who aren't all that familiar with Power Rangers - or certainly weren't big fans to begin with.  Trying not to read too much into that, but interesting nonetheless.

As for sales, we're pacing 50-60% better than the aforementioned TMNT and more than 150% better than Fox's Fantastic Four.  That does not mean to suggest we're looking at $50m+ because there are a lot of factors to consider.  Most glaring is that F4 came out in the summer of 2015 so the presale landscape has changed since then.  It's why Fandango's comps are helpful, IMO - outselling something from 2-3 years ago doesn't have as much weight as a more recent release.

For planning purposes this weekend, we are expecting a certain number which I will not provide here.  However, those expecting an outright bomb may want to take this and any other information available into consideration to make their own assessment as to whether or not MMPR may be undervalued.

interesting.  the fanbase seems to be the same as Ninja Turtles. they don't care about reviews.  

 

but why did Turtles 2 drop so much from the first|?

Because nobody cared. The novelty was gone and not even several fan-favorite additions could bring interest back.

OOTS trailer 1 had 32M views.

[ddddeeee]

Brian Tyler clearly had someone behind him the entire time telling him to 'Make it sound like Tron: Legacy'.

 

Fun score.

wow more proof trailer views mean nothing. especially for movies which already have a fanbase

[TheDarkKnightOfSteel]

It does not look good for this one.Nor it should...it's probably a bit better than the atrocious TF films but still very bad.

I don't know if I'm seeing it in theaters, but I'm VERY tempted to because of the bull scene.

 

I suspect it's not as sensational as it's being made out to be.

[Gokira2012]

45% on rt

[Krissykins]

I heard tracking was $38m.

 

I predicted $35m, let's see! 

 

After the first trailer I fully expected to see this at like 9% on RT. 45% seems ok.

That poor theater in Alabama that boycotted BATB though. They're probably about to turn into Joan Cusack at the end of In & Out ("IS EVERYBODY GAY?!?!").

[NoobSaibot]

The RT score is about as much as I expected (40%-55%). To say that it looks "terrible" would be pushing it, simply because I can tell that Israelite is the kind of guy who would put love into a project of this caliber. That makes it somewhat redeemable. As for the OW, I am not sure how it will do. I think $50 million is possible, but I'm not expecting it.
