Blackout Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 This weekend makes me wonder how Power Rangers will do. Also, will Hollywood be tempted into doing a Thundercats movie. Seems like a no-brainer considering Thundercats has a concept similar to Avatar and the nostalgia of Transformers. Power Rangers could do really well, if marketed well enough. There's a big nostalgia factor and they haven't been relevant in a long time, could make audiences curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 (edited) I guess there is just one thing to say about the Friday performance of Turtles Edited August 9, 2014 by grim22 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Boxoffice projecting only TMNT 62m and GOTG 40m 25.6 mill to 65 does seem a bit much. 25.6 22 (10% bump minus previews) 17.2 (22% decline) That gets it to about 65....it is possible.

grey ghost Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 August is exciting ! I wonder if TMNT could crawl past $200M. Why would the legs be that good. It's a fanboy movie with crappy reviews. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fancyarcher Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I don't know how Into the Storm managed to be so big. 16 - 18m is better than expected but not big. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think having alot of young fans helped out TMNT plenty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wileECoyote Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 TMNT with 65M is looking at 160M+ total. It's going to royally fuck everyone in the BSG. Good for those in the TMNT over 140 club 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grey ghost Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I still can't understand why Hollywood would try to "adapt" Battleship when they have Power Rangers, Thundercats and He-Man sitting around unused. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
