TMNT profit guessing game!

*ToTheNines* · 03-19-2007, 03:01 PM

How much do think it'll make opening night?

I'm hoping for atleast 8 mil.

20 mil. opening weekend

*ToTheNines* · 03-20-2007, 02:16 PM

no guesses?

Ralphmacchio · 03-20-2007, 03:06 PM

1 million dollars, no wait 100 billion dollars!

jignat · 03-20-2007, 04:10 PM

honestly, probably between 10-15 million.

While I could be wrong, an dI would love to see like 20-25 or more , there are wayyyy too many films opening up this weekend , which will have a drain effect on any profit tmnt may make.

Shooter is the biggest contender to get 1st, wahlberg off his oscar nom and it has explosions and stuff. 300 is still going strong and could upset it, I see one of these getting like 18-20 mil.
Hill have eyes 2 may get like 12 or so. maybe close or under tmnt. Mimzy and pride maybe in the under 10 million openings.
Then mmet the robinsons and blades of glory the week after =serious drain on turtles
Sometimes I wonder if they could have released it in Feb or maybe waited for
a low rush time like sept/oct. I guess theyt wanted to avoid the summer rush and honor the past live action 1-3 release being in march..

While it may be a big action flick, you also have to take in acount that its rated R, and thats going to have an impact on its numbers.

Im betting somewhere around 45 mil mark.

*ToTheNines* · 03-20-2007, 05:47 PM

TMNT should get more than 45 mil. world wide

*raphael_is_cool* · 03-20-2007, 06:08 PM

Sorry to gripe but you're not exactly looking at profit. Just box office figures.

After 300's break-away success, im kinda skeptical on R-raqted films being shut out of doing well.

45 total or just opening weekend.
I think tmnt will get 10-15(max like 17) this weekend then keep doing decent for awhile, making about 60-70 million domestic total.

45 opening weekend

Its still doesnt matter that much, the R rating on it is going to have its affect on Shooter's numbers. So 300 did great, but 300 is also a graphic novel based movie, whereas, Shooter isnt(far as i know). So ofcourse 300 had great numbers because it brought in all the graphic novel and comic fans.

*jeff the cheff* · 03-20-2007, 07:55 PM

I can't make it on opening night, but I'll be there Sat.

I did notice there were a lot of other movies coming out, and that stupid last mimzy might do better. My gf's little brother is going to see TMNT, but he wants to see the last mimzy too, apparantley more than tmnt

jignat · 03-20-2007, 08:05 PM

a bit OT: but i have only seen 2 TMNT commercials in the US channels.
for th emovies this week Number of ads I've seen from most ot least:

Reign over me
Shooter
Hills have eyes 2
Mimzy
TMNT

IS WB just coasting on the past popularity or turtles or is the ad budget just miniscule?
sigh...

Leonardo Mystic · 03-20-2007, 10:50 PM

I've seen tons of TMNT ads in the last week or so. Like every fifteen minutes or so on CN, there's an ad.

My guess? I believe 35-45 million opening weekend.

Raphman · 03-20-2007, 11:19 PM

19 million opening weekend...(I hope it does more)

*ToTheNines* · 03-22-2007, 01:54 PM

Well, I got my ticket in advance (6 more for my buddies) for friday. Then I'll be going again on saturday with at least 7 of my cousins. Then I'll be going again once it makes its way to the $2.50 theater... I'd say I did my part.

What happens if you dont like the movie? (Since your a fan of the turtles I think thats a fat chance)

*ToTheNines* · 03-22-2007, 02:03 PM

Oh man, I did think of that...

But I'll still go saturday, since I wont be paying for myself. And its only 2.50 at the other one, so I'm sure watching the movie will be better than doing anything thing else worth 2 dollars while I'm in winchester.

johnnyblaze · 03-22-2007, 02:54 PM

I just realized that Elias Koteas is in Shooter lol we have the turtles going against the former Casey Jones this weekend

Shooter stands no chance against the superior might of the turtles. Elias Koteas or not.

*ToTheNines* · 03-22-2007, 06:14 PM

I don't think shooter will do that well... seriously, how many times have we seen an action movie with some dude getting framed by the goverment?

bmxbandit · 03-24-2007, 12:21 AM
