Weekend Numbers: GOTG - 94M (PG 180) [25.5M Sunday (Spatula) Cancel the Godzilla legs!]

[CJohn]

TMNT needs to win next weekend. One of my SOTM depends on it.

I think this will play better to families than CA2

 

Probably. This movie is a bit more foulmouthed than Cap2, but it's not as serious, either in tone or subject matter.

Haven't seen GOTG yet, but I do think CA2 played too political to appeal to families that much.

[Ezen Baklattan]

Go see it, Baumer. You'll love it.

I'm thinking 85m, I have a feeling it's OD will be front loaded compared to midnights but I see this having great legs thereafter. TMNT his getting hit by a freight train next weekend.

[CJohn]

I will say something: if GotG goes over 100M OW, it will win every single weekend of August and the first weekend of September. 6 weekends in a row. Mark my words.

i give up. Marvel comics rules the world. What a disgrace that number is. Cannot believe that many people like to see this piece of crap looking movie

 

I much prefer this making money then trash like Transformers

[Moviefanatic]

This should blow past my 75 million OW prediction (and I thought that was high) so I'm happy.

My turtles.....

It would only need to open to around 50M (even 48 would do I think). Not that much to ask for. I thought TMTN were popular in the US.

Already 3/7 (assuming you put the obvious answers everyone else did for the first three), so worst case scenario is -6k. Nothing to be worried about really

From the Deadline article comments section:Joe C. says:July 31, 2014 at 1:26 pmGuardian’s of the Galaxy is not a staple of the Marvel Franchise. People watch the Marvel brand for what they know: Captian America, Thor, The Avengers. Guardians of the galaxy is being shoved down people’s throats with a colossal marketing push but will only yield tepid results. It will do 35.5 million tops.

Baumer???

[alisson23]

It's very very silly and completely humourless hence the 91% RT rating and all the praise.

Shit. So it is nothing more than the trailers show....

Don't be an A-Hole. Go see GOTG.

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Turtles will be fine, it's very popular here in the United States.Poor Into the Storm though....

I'm basing at how they are marketing this movie, many books/toys etc aimed at kids

[Mango]

There are some great posts out here and I'm out of likes to give.

2nd weekend yes, but even 3rd with expendables opening?
