The 5 Riskiest Blockbuster Movies This Summer

[Big Blue]

It has so much brand awareness that you got the name wrong.
I'm just busting balls though, breh.
I am completely uncertain about Guardians of The Galaxy just because it is an obscure comic property that Marvel has really done a piss poor job of connecting to the rest of their cinematic universe.

Guardians of the Galaxy is the riskiest IMO.

Marvel has established a loyal fan base.

Weekend Report: Cruise Misses with 'Edge'

Edge of Tomorrow took third place with an estimated $29.1 million. That's on par with recent sci-fi movies like Elysium ($29.8 million) and John Carter ($30.2 million), which is surely lower than Warner Bros. was hoping for this mega-budget movie. It's also noticeably lower than last year's Oblivion (also starring Tom Cruise) and Pacific Rim, both of which opened north of $37 million.

While critics have been praising the movie's originality, marketing wasn't really able to convey that point to average moviegoers. On a large scale, this looked like just another effects-heavy alien invasion movie, the likes of which arrive in theaters a few times a year. Audiences also had a bit of deja vu thanks to Cruise's presence here, as the movie's visuals seemed too close to last year's Oblivion. Finally, last year's Elysium beat Edge of Tomorrow to the punch with mechanical exoskeletons. On the surface, at least, Edge felt about as redundant as it gets.

According to Warner Bros., Edge's audience was 61 percent male and 73 percent over the age of 25. Showings in 3D accounted for 47 percent of ticket sales, while IMAX delivered $4.2 million. Critics dug the movie (89 percent on Rotten Tomatoes), but moviegoers were less enthralled: they awarded it a so-so "B+" CinemaScore. The movie may still hold up well, but it will be a big surprise if it comes anywhere close to $100 million.

178 million dollar budget... 29.1 million dollar opening weekend.. probably wouldn't pass 100 milli
got beat out by some random teen girl flick i never heard of and 2nd week earnings from Jolie's disney joint

I guess Cruise takes the first L this summer.. or 2nd if you count jupiter ascending straight up takin they ball and goin home on some shyt.


rock and ninja turtles layin in the cut like

TSC knows Im not a blind Rock fan, but I do see him carrying that movie into big worldwide box office numbers.

Ninja Turtles... I enjoyed Transformers 3 but I dont wanna see it or anything else from racist ass Michael Bay. It looks like Michael Bay typical BS at its worst just like Optimus Prime riding a dinosaur ... that being said it will prob succeed.

Actually it is connected. The main villain in Avergers 3 will be in it. It will also. Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel, Zoe Solanda they all have core fans. And the main character is a cac stud with abs. cac stud with abs, that's like 50 million alone.

Edge of Tomorrow flopped hard in the US but did huge numbers worldwide.

I feel like GOTG is one of those movies where if the early reviews aren't any good you could kiss it goodbye.

I love The Rock but Hercules has flop written all over it

 

[Jello Biafra]

So far Maleficent is ruling the box office out of all of these movies having crossed the $700 million mark in global box office.
I don't think Hercules has a shot of beating it so it will be up to TMNT to beat Jolie out of all of these movies listed.

I think the original article was only using movies that disclosed their budgets and Marvel never tells anyone what their movies cost.
