The new Step Up film is now going to compete against TMNT on August 8. http://wegotthiscovered.com/movies/s...th-august-8th/ Those films have performed solidly at the box office. http://www.boxofficemojo.com/franchi...?id=stepup.htm And they are marketed towards females. However, back on the same weekend in 2009 G.I. Joe: Rise of the Cobra still easily topped the box office while most females went to see Julie & Julia. http://www.boxofficemojo.com/news/?id=2609&p=.htm

My prediction is that TMNT will still take the top spot while Step Up finishes in 3rd place or possibly 2nd place depending on how big the drop is for Guardians of the Galaxy.

I think it'll be TMNT #1, Guardians of the Galaxy #2, and Step Up at #3 for that week.

That sounds about right. The last of those films opened in July 2012 and it came in 4th place and the franchise is experiencing some fatigue.

Quote:
Step Up Revolution, Summit’s $33 million sequel, finished the weekend in fourth place with $11.8 million — by far the lowest for a Step Up movie. Diminishing returns were expected, though. The original Step Up, which starred Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan, opened with $20.7 million and earned $65.3 million in 2006. Sequel Step Up 2 The Streets debuted with $18.9 million and found $58 million total in 2008. Step Up 3-D opened with $15.8 million and grossed $42.4 million in 2010. All three predecessors were produced by Touchstone Pictures and distributed by Disney. The franchise has now changed hands to Summit.

That's how I see it in America and I bet Guardians of the Galaxy will be at no 1 for a 2nd week (unless Planes: Fire and Rescue or The Inbetweeners Movie 2 beat it) here in the UK .

Edge of Tomorrow came out a week early and was up against Maleficent here in the UK which was a bad move because it's no 3 in the UK box office chart with X-Men no 2 and Maleficent at no 1.

Guardians of the Galaxy will be #1 for the week of August 1st, But once TMNT comes out on August 8, It will be knocked down to 2nd because of TMNT being such a very well known property.

But is this going to be a well-known movie? I've barely seen any promotion for it.

Well don't forget people watch the Nick show, read IDW comic books, buy toys ect. On Twitter I see so many people only finding out about the new movie (some are excited) every day.

I have a feeling once the main trailer comes out and Paramount finishes with promoting Transformers, promotion for TMNT will exploded and get something new almost every day.

Adobe Predicts Summer 2014's Box-Office Losers

The tech company -- boasting a 100 percent success rate for its fall 2013 box-office predictions -- forecasts financial losses for Tom Cruise's "Edge of Tomorrow" and Dwayne Johnson's "Hercules."

Adobe says its ADI boasts a 100 percent accuracy level based on nine movies it made predictions about last November, when it said Ender's Game, Delivery Man and 47 Ronin would not meet the threshold.

Edge of Tomorrow, opening wide in the U.S. on Friday, will flop, as will Hercules and The Expendables 3, according to Adobe, a technology company best known for software like Photoshop and Acrobat.

ADI predicts The Fault in our Stars, Guardians of the Galaxy, Transformers 4, The Purge 2 and How to Train Your Dragon 2 "will be the season's blockbuster hits."

Adobe does not mention TMNT but it is predicting success for GotG, so that's probably not in TMNT's favor.

Not to mention all the people who grew up with the Turtles back in the 80s who now have children of there own, They are gonna take the family to see it.

As it's been previously mentioned, many are predicting that Guardians of the Galaxy to open well during its debut weekend, but it will most likely take a big second weekend drop like most superhero films do. Even though X-Men: Days of Future Past had excellent word-of-mouth, it could not retain the No. 1 spot since Maleficent debuted the following weekend.

There's no doubt in my mind that GotG will succeed. I know I will probably want to see that one instead of TMNT myself.

Remember that, if you can. We don't care.
Really dude? LOL you kids are so fun to play with you huff and puff about what's wrong with this movie and when pressed your reasons sound ridiculous. Heck when I smashed Darksnovia on his own Youtube channel he had the common decency to admit the points he made were wrong. You on the other hand rather stay in that angry internet fan bubble.

Is "smashing" anything like "pwning"? And do either of them carry with them any real-life achievement or validation?

Just curious. I'm not hip to this internet lingo.
