Undecided if it was wise to open on live action LOTR footage, because it doesn't really do favors for the anime. {nm}

Variety: LOTR: War of the Rohirrim trailer. Going head to head against Kraven is still a bad idea. notfabio Aug 22, 12:20

Consider this is likely a "we need to do a movie per the contract" so their focus is likely home ent + streaming where anime is huge Moviesnob Aug 22, 12:31

As my old WB rep used to say about non 4 quadrant films "There's an audience for it" :) Jan-Feb would be better. {nm} notfabio Aug 22, 14:21

pretty sure it has to come out before 2025. They probably also want it on digital for the long holiday {nm} Moviesnob Aug 22, 14:45

Yeah definitely could be. {nm} notfabio Aug 22, 15:07

I hate anime, very disappointed at how this looks. Was hoping for a sex and robots type animation. {nm} skunkrunner Aug 22, 13:52

Maybe there'll be sex in Transformers One. :) {nm} The Weekend Warrior Aug 22, 14:26

Depends on the rating... and LOTR fans are more diehard than "Kraven the Hunter" fans IMO. {nm} The Weekend Warrior Aug 22, 14:25

Most movie geeks thought it was bad idea for KRAVN to move against LOTR4 at the time. Antibody Aug 22, 14:44

It could still be of course with the history, but in either case they will likely cannibalize each other. {nm} notfabio Aug 22, 15:05

It looks like crap {nm} gogreenytd Aug 22, 14:47

Apparently most HSXers agree. Rare to see the price plummet on trailer release day! {nm} LiteratnStylish Aug 22, 17:32

If one moves to week prior, will make a huge difference VictorY Aug 22, 15:24

The week prior is terrible, and already committed to Chris Nolan for INTERSTELLAR for IMAX/70MM. {nm} notfabio Aug 22, 15:31

[Which on the date it's currently on it'll be sharing IMAX screens with Kraven...so 50/50 on what's a better scenario] {nm} notfabio Aug 22, 15:32
