Has Guardians of the Galaxy already won August - Page 60

TMNT's Marketing has been way better than GOTG!

I don't think either Marvel or Michael Bay would be able 'save' either movie in terms of the Box Office competition, that comes down to the kids that those movies are aimed at and in this case, TMNT's probably gonna take GOTG's place as #1.

TMNT has had basically zero marketing in the UK, whereas GOTG is everywhere.

I've been seeing more TMNT products than GotG, but I've been seeing the GotG clips and trailers pop up about four times as often as TMNT. So really, they're both promoting like crazy, but in wildly different ways.

That because we don't get the film till October 17th. I think as soon as we hit September marketing will be everywhere.

Hence why Guardians could maintain #1 box office worldwide even if TMNT takes #1 in the US for its opening weekend.

MajorViolence · 07-22-2014, 09:21 AM

I keep forgetting that TMNT is staggered that way. It's much easier to see why so many don't count TMNT as a threat to GotG with that in mind.

*NinjaPug* · 07-22-2014, 10:10 AM

These articles talking about GOTG winning the box office in August is only talking about the domestic box office. The staggered international release date for tmnt has nothing to do with that. They just don't think tmnt poses much of a threat domestically based on predictions. Are they right? We'll see.

SwiftNinjaFox · 07-22-2014, 11:26 AM

With the shift to international box office being the focus and the worldwide market being more important (hell, overseas is far more of a factor in financial success than domestic), that surprises me.

Honestly, with the way this summer has gone, I would be really surprised for Guardians to be #1 domestically 2 weeks in a row.

With the earlier midnight showing ("Midnight showing at 7PM!" wut...) I think even more people are seeing the movies they want to see the opening weekend, especially with another movie they want to see the next weekend, etc.

I could easily see the domestic box office for August be
Week 1: Guardians
Week 2: TMNT
Week 3: Expendables

Sin City is a wild card, though.

What in the flying ****?
I don't know about Berry, but the first sentence is so ridiculuous, it's kind of baffles me.

Maybe that is the case for the Hollywood, but saying "majority of women can't act" is quite ignorant.
