    I think it has an uphill battle with the last film not being very well liked. 

    It wasn't hated though. It got moderate reception. First Meg had good legs at the boxoffice. I mean this trailer is #1 trending on youtube right now. People are interested and a great release date without much competition.

    This looks silly and fun, but I bet it’ll have a huge drop from the first film at the box office because the first one didn’t deliver on its promise. 
     

    I’d rather the Meg was finally eating people instead of dinosaurs. 
     

    And the “this looks ridiculous when can I book tickets” doesn’t translate to the general audiences whatsoever. I wouldn’t be surprised if this made less than $60m. 

    I disagree I can see this opening around the same as the first. The trailer has already racked up 6.2M views on youtube in less than w4 hours and the reception is mostly positive. No way this misses $60M, I think it's locked for $100M DOM. It has a prime release date with August being shark season and a lot of people will go to the movies just for that.

    The demise of Disney on here is about to be proven wrong yet again. I don't think it'll match BATB or Lion King but on par with Aladdin wouldn't surprise me. It's much more female skewing so it'll fare well throughout the summer.

    The big problem is going into the future. The well is getting dry. They really only have Little Mermaid and Snow White left to remake. There's only so many classic films they can remake. I do think they can remake Pinocchio again in a couple years considering that the one last year already disappeared into the ether. I am hoping with the success of Mario we get a Kingdom Hearts animated full length movie.

    I mean, there are messages in their huge hits too but they're just better movies. No one wanted Lightyear and Strange World... Even if they were good or really good they wouldn't have made much more... That's what hurt those most of all. This comes across as a baiting post. Their biggest issue is likely releasing too many in a row straight to streaming. People really liked Luca and Turning Red. Frozen, Frozen II, Zootopia, Coco, Toy Story 4, etc. are littered with messages and all did extremely well. Apologies if you were just being sarcastic...

    I didnt say Disney shouldn't make movies with messages but it shouldn't be your main priority as an entertainment company. It should be about making a product that families will enjoy first.

  5. Poor Disney Animation and Pixar. How the mighty have fallen. Behind Dreamsworks and Illumination. I guess that's what happens when you care about inserting messages in your movies than entertaining an audience. Maybe Elemental can be break out hit but I think it might get lost in the shuffle of a very crowded June. Trailers so far haven't been all that appealing for it.
