‘Wrath Of The Titans’ Vs. ‘The Hunger Games’ On March 23, 2012

And, if I had to guess, I’d say it’s going to be The Hunger Games. The film, based on a very popular novel by Suzanne Collins about a girl forced to fight for her life in an arena in front of the whole country, has “blockbuster” written all over it and if Ross delivers the goods – which he should based on such strong material – the film feels much more Summer or Fall than Spring. There’s no room to release it during the holiday’s this year (if the film was even ready by then) but holding it back until August 2012, once all the superheroes do their thing, could probably be in the cards.

Then again, Wrath of the Titans has a much easier path to financial success being as it’s already the sequel to a very successful film. Hypothetically, it could open at anytime and reap the rewards. Warners is probably hoping to open the film in March, just like the first one, then count the receipts as they begin the full-on marketing blitz for The Dark Knight Rises.

What do you think? Will one of the films budge? Which has more box office potential?
