I just can't see GoTG beating out TMNT. They are just too damn popular. TMNT has a cartoon and Nick, a power house driving the car. I just can't see this movie failing. Then again Avatar the last airbender failed so hard, but their like Nick's red headed step child

remember you have to look at it with the eyes of the general public not a fan


GOTG is a chapter in the Marvel Cinematic universe while TMNT is a "new" property on the big screen


and as you said Last Airbender

I didn't think so either, at first. Till I saw the trailers. And you say Nick is a powerhouse, well, Disney is an even bigger behemoth. How many billion dollar movies has Disney got under it's belt now? I just counted 7. 2 were from last year alone.

GotG has Marvel and Disney. Disney beats Nick. And pretty much all of Marvel's movies have been very near universally loved and financial successes

Nobody's saying it WILL fail. A handful of people hope it will fail because they think it looks like crap, but nobody thinks it will. They're discussing the possibility of the movie underperforming based on other films possibly being better/more popular than TMNT and taking money away from it.

Another point. The cartoon is great and was hugely successful and popular. The movie was given to somebody who didn't really care and who took too many liberties and was given a terrible script with not very good actors.

And the movie was terrible. And it only was a VERY moderate box office success because of the overseas market.

Last air bender wasn't a flop
$319,713,881 is not a flop at all their budget was $150,000,000
not bad at all, now the movie it self was bad meaning getting a sequel is unlikely ever.

movie wise Air Bender is dead..the original Idea was to make the 3 chapters(seasons) into movies but it was nixed when it failed

So if I got a 31% on my Algebra test, I didn't do that bad?

Just to clarify. The 31% that you saw on that site meant that only 31% (out of 100%) of the Audience liked it.

And that 6% you saw? That meant only 6% (out of 100%) of the Critics Liked it.

So in other words, 69% of the Audience hated it, and 94% of the Critics Hated it.

GOTG looks pretty cool to me but it has bomb written all over it. Outside of Iron Man and Avengers none of the other movies have really done THAT well. They keep trying to work the Iron Man magic in the other franchises but it hasn't worked. I just don't see it going well with the general audience. TMNT on the other hand could go either way.

Don't understand that. For example, the second Captain America (Winter Soldier) already made what...over $160 million in the US in less than 2 weeks? And it's already got about $500 million worldwide. I would think that would be an example of a film that 'isn't Iron Man or Avengers' and yet it is doing very well.

And as much as I love the Turtles, I definitely do not see the new film doing the business that the new Captain America is currently doing...
