Box Office: 'Transformers: Age of Extinction' Poised for $100 Million-Plus Launch - Hollywood Reporter

Hollywood Reporter expects it to make $100 million+ on its opening weekend, according to pre-release tracking.


Personally, I'm expecting it to open at at least $110 million.

 

Is this just a prediction?

 

It's according to pre-release tracking. . . which one can see as a prediction.

 

I have a feeling it will make more than TF1 but less than rotf so about the same money as dotm so my prediction will be 90 million

 

I can see this getting 100 million+ easy.

 

So many big films have come out this year that didn't make 100+ over the three day weekend, so it would be kind of amusing (to me at least) if a Michael Bay film does it.

 

Comicbookmovie expect it to be captain america 2's opening.

BOX OFFICE: TRANSFORMERS 4 Expected To Beat CAPTAIN AMERICA 2's Opening

 

I was hoping Transformers make atleast $125 million for 3 days. Theres still couple weeks left, so it should make over $100 mil easily.

 

For the sake of principle I'd prefer if the film didn't earn a bunch unless it actually is of good quality. We've seen a lot of rather good quality movies this year that have had exceptional directing, casts and action - it'd be a shame if Transformers; AOE becomes successful solely based on the fact its another sequel.

As for my own predictions I feel that regardless of quality it'll earn somewhere between the earnings of ROTF and the earnings of DOTM.

If its a very good quality movie then it might push the earnings to around $1.5bn

 

Fingers crossed for the latter. Really hoping for a good quality film. Out of the four, this has the best chance with Bay still at the helm. It's like his second chance to start off a trilogy.

 

I think this film is easily gonna make 100 million in it's first weekend, lets face it, in the US, UK etc, the films easily make a lot, when someone see's "Transformers" they know what they are getting.

With this film, being advertised a lot more in other area's (Mexico, China etc) i can safely say it's going to be on par, or more, than ROTF.

I work in a Cinema, and people's reactions to the new trailers have been amazing, other trailers just don't compare to the AoE ones, the screens literally erupt with cheer when Grimlock comes on so i have no doubt this film will do well

Plus the GIANT Dino Standee's popping up at every Cinema gets people excited xD

 

This is the first Transformers film opening on a Friday whereas first three opened on a Wednesday.

 

Well I will be doing my part, I will be seeing it 2-3 times opening weekend and 4-5 times in the theater overall. I will also be taking friends along as my treat. I am hoping this movie is deserving of my $ because I really want it to challenge the Avengers on the all-time box office ticket sales for third (although I am a Marvel fan, I am a TF fan 1st). As much as these films have been criticized I am still glad they are being made. They are still very entertaining for this nostalgic 36 year old. I think it would be neat to see the 1986 movie updated with new animation or even done in a live action film or something as a stand-alone. Maybe they could even do for the cartoons what they did with the comics and continue from where they left off with the original series. Lots of characters I would love to see that haven't made appearances since then.

 

i can see it making 120-140m opening weekend..the dinobots is a big deal

 

this is true and thats a HUGE difference for opening weekends

 

Ya Paramounts got the LOCKDOWN on that $$$$!

 

This guy really understands.  

 

woa awesome!

It probably won't beat Avengers but it'll do major damage...ALOT of people wanna see this bad boy


it's funny the only TF film I saw twice or more in the theater was TF2

ahh..i can remember it like it was yesterday....the previews for X-Men 3....the teaser for TF1...just epic.

 

Transformers: Age of Extinction is probably Michael Bay last chance to convinced the general audience that Transformers films can be good, and that ROTF and DOTM is a thing of the past. I mean it's FOURTH film, this has to do good, it has to surprise. It's already certain that the film will make serious money. But I pray, PRAY, that this film does well. I'm sick and tired of these shitheads of the YouTube comment section talk shit about this film, i want them to be proven wrong, I want Transformers to be seen as trustworthy film franchise that you can proudly say "I love the Transformers Movies". I just pray.

 

Come on, the last movie made a billion dollars. You can't possibly think the general public hates Transformer movies.
