Considering that both films are doing really well, it should not be an issue.
It should only be an issue if you're Into The Wind or Get on Up.

Yeah Guardians is doing well and I'm sure it has more replay value then ninja turtles. Plus next week is a new Expendables movie where keep in mind the first one had a higher box office weekend and made more money then the second one and this has a reputation of being PG-13 and Let's Be Cops so I'd expect Guardians to be number two or three next weekend. Higher then the Ninja Turtles. Then the next weekend after I don't think Sin City 2 would do that well since it's been nine years too late and barn advertised and bam it gets really dead after that. Like I said before I think Guardians is the movie that really benefited from a really dead summer blockbuster year and being one of the few interesting movies to happen during these dead months.
I really wonder if Marvel purposely released Captain America on March this year to give Guardians a chance

I really wonder if Marvel purposely released Captain America on March this year to give Guardians a chance Most definitely. Not to mention, Cap had a 5-week grace period before the summer really started, which has helped it. But yeah, Marvel needed GotG to open on it's own without anything else holding it back. It did and look at it now. People will see Turtles is #1, but GotG has the highest grossing second weekend this summer. BTW, it now has grossed more than Transformers did in the first 10 days. Sure, TF4 will gross a billion, but what will people remember more? I'm thinking about seeing it again this week.

And all that money for transformers is international and international box offices are only going up the past few years mainly because studios finally realized China is a huge market and they started more heavy advertising in foreign countries and getting more screens to air their movies. Also this is the lowest domestic earning transformers film which is terrible because they get a way way way way bigger cut from domestic revenue then international revenue by far.

Well it's a shame America didn't turn out to see the redemption that was Step Up All In, returning the series to top form (as achieved by Step Up 3D), presenting a great group of likeable characters (MOOSE!) and some fun wacky dancing. If other countries turn out I might get to see another Step Up film in theaters two years from now, but if not this was a wonderful way to end the saga that truly began with Step Up 2: The Streets, vastly preferable to the (admittedly more visually/conceptually ambitious) misStep Up that was Step Up Revolution.

One could argue that Ninja Turtles' success is in fact a by-product of GotG's reigniting of the moribund summer box office, if one were somehow personally offended by the result for some reason. Yeah, I'm sure the extremely popular Nickelodeon cartoon had absolutely nothing to do with it.

Planes Fire and Rescue - $90M That's got to hurt for Disney. Not really. Budget was $50M and marketing was rather low for a Disney release. It all goes back to the origins of PLANES, which is often forgotten (or not known): PLANES was originally supposed to be a direct-to-video movie, but then someone at Disney came up with the idea to release it in theatres (must've been a hole in the schedule?). It did really good numbers and more than made its money back, and then they probably made a bunch of money on it on DVD later. But it didn't do CARS/Pixar/etc numbers, so people thought it was a bomb. I recall reviewers even complaining about the animation levels.........not nearly up to snuff with the big theatricals, but for TV/DTV animation it (and the sequel, based on its budget) was right on par. Which was how it was intended.

In two weeks, Guardians has surpassed the four month domestic take of Incredible Hulk. That's enough for me, that was the only green thing they really needed to beat.

Saw one review that was upset that TMNT is apparently stealing some of GOTG thunder. Crazy Do you have a link to this? The butthurt sounds absolutely amazing.

Interstellar and the last Hobbit should both do well as well.

If 2015 doesn't get 300 million dollar domestic box offices with The Avengers, Star Wars, Final Hunger Games movie, then it's time to reevaluate the whole movie theater system in the USA.

Enough kids to make up a seven million dollar deficit and then add another ten on top in one day? Damn kids! Nerds go to midnight movies, parents dont take their kids to them.

Actually Fifty Shades Of Grey should be the start of that 300 million dollar domestic in 2015. You know Avengers, Star Wars, and Mockingjay PT2 will easily cross that.

I wouldn't bet that 50 Shades of Grey gets to 300 million domestic. I'm not saying it doesn't have a chance, but I think it's more likely to fall short of that.
