Mojoguy Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Cars 2 had Independence Day in its 2nd weekend to soften its weekend drop. Still dropped over 60%. Cars 3 won't, so it will definitely have an over a 60% second weekend drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the original Cars opened over $60M 11 years ago without 3D. The fact that this couldn't even crack $55M is a failure in my eyes. I'll have my hat and my crow with some barbecue sauce, thank you very much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kinda funny that ultimately this is performing pretty much how everyone expected it to when it was first announced, before expectations were raised by the "dark/edgy" teaser. Turns out it's still a mediocre franchise wearing out its welcome 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
centurion Posted June 25, 2017 Share Posted June 25, 2017 The Cars one is still the best though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That happens when the sequel does not generate any goodwill for the franchise. And people see it as a more of a kiddle mercandice series now than back with first Cars when it had more an image of being about racing and Route 66 that was just a bit more kiddle than usual Pixar films.

ThomasNicole Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 This probably will gross $ 500m, right? I'm thinking $ 160-170m in USA, $ 40-50m in China [i can't see this doing less than Dory], $ 290 OS - China. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it doesn't matter because of toy sales. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 (edited) It may not "matter" in the sense that Pixar will still be running, but there has to be a point where theatrical big budget movie releases aren't the most cost effective manner of maintaining the revenue stream. Plenty of toy product lines do just fine without them. Edited July 2, 2017 by tribefan695 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morieris Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I'm surprised they seem to have scrapped those shorts. Disney Channel has Lego Frozen Adventures or whatever on top of constantly making theatrical shorts..... but Pixar never had their movies be shows, except Buzz Lightyear of Star Command twenty years ago.

AniNate Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 They had opened a studio in Canada to work on the shorts but it got nixed when they scrapped and redid Good Dinosaur. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 (edited) If you liked the movie you will be pleased with the Bluray which looks loaded with extras (something not really common these days) . Also will be first Pixar film released in 4K disc http://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=22019 Edited September 7, 2017 by John Marston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finding Dory's blu-ray was backed with some great extras. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
