You should watch this movie, tbh. It is actually the best SH movie released this year, IMO
Huh?

Has Iger's strategy been proven to be less effective?
If Disney ranks in the top 3 studios every year with fewer movies that probably means they're making more money.
Exactly. I feel like a broken record saying this, but Disney is doing great if you look at BO gross earned per movie. Add the total BO gross and divide by the number of movies. Disney is grossing huge numbers at the BO. They are excelling at BO blockbusters.

Does Disney not own Dimension Studios anymore? They used to release horror films.
Edited, just googled and saw TWC ownership. Disney needs a company like this to release varied films.
Disney bought Miramax in 1993 I believe, and Dimension was a division under Miramax. When the Weinsteins left Miramax, Disney sold the Dimension brand to them. Eventually, Disney shut down Miramax and sold the Miramax library.

Disney probably needs to start releasing more than 11 or so movies a year in order to win in terms of B.O. gross.
Based on the narrow definition that some people want to use of winning, Disney will always have trouble because they release too few movies in a year. However, Disney makes the most in terms of BO gross per movie. If you divide total BO gross by number of movies released in a year, then Disney wins.

At the rate F4 is dropping, it won't be long until it falls behind Ant-man. Just pathetic performance.
That will be a glorious day when FF falls behind Ant-Man.

Sue going along for the ride with the boys to acquire their powers would've also helped..
Yeah. Her not being included and not bonding with the rest of them made no sense. It made it feel like Dr. Doom was more a part of the team than she was.

It's certainly not automatic, especially given at one age one is adopted. In fact, pending any specific story points that mention otherwise, I think the basic assumption is that an adopted child growing up in a loving, accepting family feels just as much part of that family as they would otherwise. Your assumption is that inevitably and automatically they wouldn't.
This is a world where people can turn invisible and have weird powers... is it really so hard to accept a basic assumption that they're a united family regardless of birth or adoption?
Since they didn't act much like brother and sister at all in the movie, it was hard to believe that they were related at all. And the race of the characters wouldn't have changed that either. They didn't seem like siblings.

Only one man predicted failure of this magnitude
#BKBWasRight
Sooo true. I thought this would fail. But, I never imagined it would fail this bad. Only BKB saw an absolute total bomb happening. The rest of us just saw a failure, not a complete and undeniable disaster.

F4 is a work of genius. It will go down as a cult classic. It's actually a found-footage film that is shot with incredibly steady hands and an amazing camcorder. The person holding the cam was Silver Surfer. This will be revealed in 2017, Fant4stic t00.
In the future, you should also put the link to the full article if you're going to quote something from Fox's website .

Um. As far as I know, Paramount was just a distributor. Not a producer. Marvel was basically a large scale indie studio before Disney bought them.
Oh and Avengers would not have made nearly as much as it did on OW without Disney doing the marketing.
Correct. Paramount was going through a phase where they were trying to limit their financial risk by distributing other studios' films. Marvel was going to finance their own movies. Paramount was only a distributor for Iron Man. Marvel financed the film themselves. TIH was financed by Marvel but distributed through Universal.
Disney bought Marvel at the end of 2009. Marvel became part of the Disney machine at that time. Disney decided to keep Marvel Studios as a separate studio under the Walt Disney Studios segment of the company and Kevin Feige was the man in charge of Marvel Studios. Former Marvel CEO Ike Perlmutter joined the Disney Board of Directors.
Disney's first Marvel movie was Iron Man 2. Disney was forced to distribute the movie through Paramount because Paramount had signed a 5 picture distribution deal with Marvel before Disney bought Marvel. Paramount was only the distributor for Iron Man 2. The profits, minus Paramount's distribution fee, went to Disney.
Then, Disney had to distribute Thor and CA:TFA through Paramount. Again, Paramount was only the distributor and only received a distribution fee. Disney was very annoyed with Paramount's marketing for Iron Man 2, Thor, and CA:TFA. They felt that while IM2 made Disney a lot of money, it should have made them even more money. They felt that Thor and CA:TFA didn't make more money because of Paramount's marketing.
Disney decided to pay Paramount to go away for The Avengers and Iron Man 3. They paid Paramount money so that Disney could distribute those 2 films themselves. After The Avengers and Iron Man 3, Disney was free from the Paramount distribution deal.

Ant-man will do $165m+, could reach $170m.
I thought Ant-Man would gross $175M domestic. A little lower end result than what I thought, but it is coming close.

My time has come. I have nobody else to blame except me for this.

Marvel will take it back just for the villains. Or just to say "suck it".
Agreed. The Silver Surfer is still a massive superhero on his own and he is not tarnished. Also, Galactus is not tarnished either. There are a lot of villains and 1 massive superhero that can be very useful to Marvel.

I love Iron Man 2. I think it is absolutely great.
But, even if you don't love it, there is no way you can call it more boring than Fant4stic. Iron Man 2 is all comedy and action. Even if you don't like the jokes, they do exist. Even if you don't like the action, it does exist. And it has a villain whose motivations you can easily understand. Fant4stic has no comedy, almost no action, and the villain makes no sense. Fant4stic is the very definition of boring.

Proud to admit that the original Jumanji was and is one my favorite movies from my childhood. Whatever.
I really liked the original Jumanji. I don't have any desire to watch a remake.

Could ANT-MAN end up being a sleeper hit??
I want to say no because I don't want to jinx it. But secretly, I am hoping that it becomes a sleeper hit.

Ant-Man went up with actuals!! A 48.6% drop...very nice, very, very nice!!!
Ant-Man is holding well so far. Here's hoping that it continues to hold well.

My unhealthy obsession with how much this movie is still making..
- - Avengers: Age of Ultron BV $155,000 -53.0% 214 - $724 $457,000,000 $250 14
You're not the only one. I am still obsessed with its domestic BO gross too.

The list has been updated to include the addition of Inside Out.
Who Framed Roger Rabbit has been removed from the list.

I originally
had this at 100 mill, but where's the fun in that?
No fun at all. I would have been IN if that was where the bar was set.

Before this shit enters the 200M, because it will, can we all agree that a total around what Rocky Balboa did would already be great?
Rocky Balboa adjusted for inflation is about $85M. I think that would be a solid result. I think $100M would be great.
