Funny that everyone was super hype about Aladdin staying above 1million for 52 days and comparing it to the avengers and then Toy Story 4 does the same a month later XD we've had some really good runs this year
Interestingly, Disney was one of the only major companies last year whose shareholders actually voted NOT to give the CEO a raise. Kinda funny considering they sent out the voting envelopes with a special message they DEFINITELY RECOMMEND VOTING YES
It's pretty much escalated the moment some guy wanders into the conversation like "THIS MOVIE WAS TRASH". Had they come in and said "I didn't care for the movie, it wasnt the worst but it didn't do it for me" then those who liked it would be more willing to accept the opinion. Instead you get them showing up and yelling about how the movie offended their very being and suddenly you get people who originally just kinda liked it feeling like some dick is personally attacking their opinions and it radicalizes them as well. Same for the other way around.
Interesting that they no longer do this. I've always wondered why Japan contributes noticeably less to Hollywood films these days. Is it simply that their taste in film no longer lines up with Hollywood? Or has the market just shrank?
This insanity is really making me curious about Spider-Man: FFH. Are these enormous numbers a sign that there are now more avengers fans than ever before and that we could see a new Avengers-boost to upcoming marvel films, or is it simply hype over the finale and finale alone, and people will still be too mentally exhausted to care about another solo film?
All started 11 years ago with Iron Man grossing 300M and showing great success... Ending with Avengers doing well more than that in 3 days. Who would've ever thought
probably should never have given such a high budget to a sequel of a known flop anyways, no matter how critically acclaimed it was. In fact, the fact that it flopped despite critical acclaim was probably an even worse sign.
I won't complain though, it was one of the best films of the decade
What's this shit I'm hearing about finding dory having a bad second weekend hold...? You do realize that it had the best 2nd weekend hold of any film with an OW above 116m (Alice in Wonderland was ever so slightly better) aside from TFA right? "Bad hold" yeah right....
*at the time of its release of course
