kitik Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 TMNT skews towards a kids crowd, so that's a pretty darn good number. 50M isn't locked, but there's definitely a good chance of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecstasy Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Other 7pm previews this year Guardians - 11.2Spiderman - 8.7Godzilla - 9.3 If it behaves like Guardians it will make 38.7m, if more like spiderman then 48.4m. My guess is it will be somewhere in the middle.it had less showtimes than those movies though. My theater had 8 but a lot of places only had 2 and 4.

filmscholar Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 Turtles is most definitely going to split the "Family/Kids" Demo that Guardians got last weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narniadis Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Decent midnight. Should take the top spot but depending on that Friday hold for guardians it could be a very interesting fight. Ether way we will have nearly 90m in just the top 2 spots which is great for August. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olive Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 In comparison,Guardians of the Galaxy grossed $11.2M last weekend and has been logging a stellar mid-week gross. Last night, it took in approximately $7.6M. http://www.deadline.com/2014/08/box-office-preview-audiences-expected-to-shell-it-out-for-teenage-mutant-ninja-turtles-will-guardians-hold-fast-at-no-1/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpha Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 $7.6 million for Guardians obviously suggests Ninja Turtles could really give it some competition for first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXtacy Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) Hopefully this is a minor dent and Turtles is incredibly front loaded Edited August 8, 2014 by eXtacy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
