Total box office gross of the TMNT 2 and 3 films?
 
Was wondering if there is any info on the total box office worldwide gross of the TMNT 2 and 3 films? This is nowhere listed on the usual sites like imdb.com, boxofficemojo.com and the-numbers.com. Does anyone know the worldwide box office grosses of the middle 2 films (counting TMNT '07 as film 4)? I'd just like to know it for comparison purposes of all the films worldwide tallies.

Wikipedia says $78,656,813 for Secret of the Ooze and $42,273,619 for the third movie.

Those are just domestic numbers. I can't find the worldwide figures anywhere.

Whoa, Secret of the Ooze made 78 million just in North America? That is pretty good. I wonder how much that would be today, adjusting for inflation.

According to Box Office Mojo the second two films never got international release.

No idea if that's true but it isn't totally crazy to imagine.

Well, they certainly both came out in the UK. I never went to watch the second one, but I remember very well seeing the poster of it outside our local cinema. As for the third, my dad took me and my two brothers to go and watch it.

With the power of the 'net and we can't get an answer for my question. Yeah I meant "worldwide total" tallies. The domestic grosses are the only info we can get apparently for the two films. It doesn't make sense that the movies didn't come out internationally. If the TMNT was so big at the time that shouldn't be the case. Look how big the 1rst film was. The other two films' combined domestic grosses doesn't even match the 1rst films total. They are both still profitable compared to how much they costed and the same sites showed their rental grosses too. Once you add that they really made some money still nonetheless.

Yes, it is crazy to imagine that 60-some markets would unanimously say, "No, we won't release it here." Boxofficemojo is outright lying.

Considering TMNT 4 was released in almost every country imaginable, I find it strange that TMNT 2 and 3 wouldn't when they were at the height of Turtlemania.

That or they just can't find the data. I mean they have international grosses for Gone With The Wind. They even have grosses for Metropolis. I'm gonna guess the data is long since lost. I'm gonna guess the grosses on both films must have been pretty decent considering they green lit a sequel to both. Granted 4 never came out but it was rumored to have a bigger budget then any of the previous films.

it almost makes me wanna become a director coz movies just so make money...

Spitfire 06-25-2012 12:45 AM

You wanna become a producer then. Directors really don't benefit financially from a films success like producers do. There are cases when they do but it's when they're also producers and sometimes they take net, but that's rare. Hollywood has a tendency to make it look like every movie they made actually lost money with shady accounting so they don't have to pay so much in taxes.

Mr.Turtle 06-25-2012 10:45 PM

that's why i said "almost"...
