Wednesday Numbers: GOTG 8.8 (-26%), Lucy 1.9, Herc 1.16

Recommended Posts



I'd love to think that GOTG could have a sub 55% drop, but it just won't happen, not going up against a movie like TMNT. You guys are seriously underestimating TMNT. It's going to hit 50M, and I wouldn't even be surprised if it hit 60M.

If TMNT reaches those heights, that bodes well for Lionsgate and their Power Rangers adaptation.

BoxOffice is predicting 40M for TMNT. I think it could go maybe a little bit higher, but I'd be surprised if it hit 50M

 

 

Also, Weekend Warrior has it at 35.2m.

 

I think we shouldn't discount the Briana Evigan factor...

LOS ANGELES - August 7, 2014 - According to Fandango, the nation's leading moviegoer destination, Michael Bay's "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' (opening tonight) is shredding its way to the top of the company's Fanticipation movie buzz indicator, scoring a powerful 89 out of 100 points, while "Guardians of the Galaxy" stands strong with 87 points in its second week. Moviegoers are shelling out big time for "Turtles," with the movie leaping to the top of Fandango's weekend ticket pre-sales. Representing a major slice of tickets since Monday, "Turtles" shows no signs of slowing. It is outpacing both 2009's "G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra" and 2013's "G.I. Joe: Retaliation" at the same point in the Fandango sales cycle.

Fandango surveyed more than 1,000 "Turtles" ticket-buyers on its site and found that:87% watched the cartoon series;82% had seen one of the previous movies;72% are fans of the film's producer, Michael Bay;57% are fans of the film's star, Megan Fox;56% picked Michelangelo as their favorite turtle. "Like last week's blockbuster, ‘Guardians,' ‘Turtles' is a family-oriented action movie appealing to tweens and teens as well as parents looking for a fantasy nostalgia trip," says Fandango Chief Correspondent Dave Karger. "Throw in some giant action set-pieces courtesy of producer Michael Bay, and you've got the recipe for a late summer hit."Fandango is unveiling original artwork and videos inspired by "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles," including a unique time lapse video of Cleveland-based artist George Vlosich recreating the famous "Turtles" characters as an incredible Etch A Sketch portrait. Fandango is also debuting exclusive fan-created "Turtles" artwork (by Tracy Tubera) and an exclusive "Ninja Turtles" infographic by Kansas City artist Rachel Ignotofsky.

Don't care for the turtles at all, but if they rain on the Guardians parade, it would be hilarious to see people badmouthing it.

 

Seems like you must be a Marvel fanboy here or have your opinion voided with smartly thought out "U mad bro?"s

Yes, the bloodshed would be a sight to behold.

Seems like you must be a real martyr to go against the grain and let everyone know about it.

I really don't care too much if GotG gets 1st place this weekend. For the box office's sake, I wish TMNT luck. I just want GotG to cross $45m+ this weekend. That's all I wish.
