AniNate Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 Idk, we get melodramatic about release dates a lot but just got to wait and see how they both perform at the box office I guess. I suspect it won't be the bloodbath people fear. Do wish this had gone in August for my anxiety's sake but I've said enough about that already, nothing that can be done now but wait 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Human Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 @WebSurferNo individual did. somebody at Universal and somebody else at Paramount picked. They both want to be the animated film for September, and think they will win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not gonna lie-- I'm kind of disappointed. I was really looking forward to the possibility of a PG-13 animated movie. To ease your fears: it actually gets surprisingly dramatic and violent in the third act (some very visceral on-screen deaths). But they’re robots. So it gets a pass in the ratings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mutant Mayhem did like $180m last year. I think TF is a stronger brand (and One is a way better movie), so I do think something like $250m WW is doable. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumblebee was given huge praise and only got 127M when theater culture was way bigger. Most people are not interested in a Transformers movie not connected to the Bay films at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 I suspect normie reaction won't be as strong as the geek reaction, so Mutant Mayhem numbers seem realistic. I actually think this movie will be hurt more by Wild Robot opening after it than the other way around. It'll have a week of being the new big cartoon in theaters but then the presumptive prestige release comes out right after it and takes all the PLF. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll go back and check again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It should make at least $200M+ worldwide, since TMNT did very poorly overseas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morieris Posted August 27 Share Posted August 27 Quote In cooperation with AMC Theatres, B&B Theatres, and Regal Cinemas, a specially graded and mastered version of “Transformers One” will be shown in five newly-equipped HDR By Barco cinema auditoriums starting Sept. 20 when the movie opens wide in the U.S. The locations are AMC Americana at Brand 18 in Glendale; AMC Barrywoods 24 in Kansas City; B&B Theatres Red Oak 12 in Dallas; Regal Dania Pointe, Miami-Ft. Lauderdale; and Regal Times Square in New York. I would have checked it out if our Regal had gotten this, but hey, new film format. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
