TMNT is cooler than MOTU

The vast majority of schools in the US are on summer break after today.

Interestingly, I've been looking at the capacity for various theaters around my area at peak movie time today (around 7 PM) and the 3-D showing are pretty empty. The only ones that have a decent turnout at the standard ones.

Ok thanks, then that's probably why 2014 movie made more money than this movie.

If this movie bombs it will be the best Summerween present I could ever ask for.

My hope is that this film will end up being like the 2014 film, Edge of Tomorrow, which didn't open very strong, but actually became a sleeper hit and went on to gross $100 million in North America. There are even plans for that movie to have a sequel.

Tomorrow we will find out how much it does today.

Take note that the 2014 movie did $25.7M on Friday.

To even speak the name of that movie in the same breath as the last Turtle "film"... deplorable. Edge of Tomorrow earned its sequel.

That's... generally the way that works.

Update from Deadline:

Quote:
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows is on course per industry projections to make $11M today, with an opening between $28M-$30M, but rival distribution czars aren’t impressed by nor envious of this Paramount release’s weekend. In regards to a sequel’s opening vs. its predecessor’s, TMNT2 isn’t seeing the biggest drop from part 1, with its opening off by 54%-57% from the 2014 title. The goat horns for the worst sequel debut this year, of course, land upon the hat of Disney’s Alice Through the Looking Glass. Last weekend the James Bobin-directed movie opened 77% below its 2010 first chapter’s $116M debut. TMNT2 will have the added benefit of 331 Imax locations and 3D showtimes. The first TMNT reboot drew an over-25 crowd of 55%, roping in all the Gen X and Y fans of the comic books and New Line series. The sequel is earning slightly better reviews at 36% rotten than the first at 22%; the critics were no threat to its B.O. longevity two years ago. Nor were CinemaScore audiences, who gave TMNT a B grade

Even if it bombs, I bet there still be a 3rd movie. But they have to dump Megan Fox for someone cheaper.

After their first movie was critically mauled, and if their attempt to "course correct" flops, I'd hope that would ring the reboot bell regardless. Even if it blows up in China, they can't only make these movies for that market. If it performs domestically like these projections suggest, that's a failure. Even if it makes a profit internationally, these domestic numbers and that drop percentage won't be ignored.
