Not if you're worried people might die in between them.

Funny thing is, I feel like for a while there was a bit of a sesaw between the two in terms of quality. WDAS had the Renaissance when Pixar was starting out Afterwards WDAS had a slump period (though in that slump period was The Emperor's New Groove which is one of my all-time favorite Disney movies), while Pixar put out hit after hit. Then Pixar's quality dipped while WDAS bounced back. And now both seem to be putting out good-to-great movies. Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

I think the reason why the Princess crossover didn't seem to do much for WiR2 at the box office is because, well, it's a WiR movie, not a Disney Princess crossover movie. At most the Princesses would only be in the movie for a couple scenes, but Ralph and Vanellope are the central characters. I don't think it would be plausible to have a mega Disney Princess crossover like that because the majority of them live in different time periods and places, unless dimension-hopping/time travel was involved (Tangled/Frozen potentially being the exception if the fan theory of them being related is ever made canon). If there was a feasible reason to have them interact a crossover could work, at least between a few of them.

I agree with you in some respects on critics. Critics didn't think too highly of the new Aladdin or Alita (according to Rotten Tomatoes at least) but I adored both movies. I'm curious though, what exactly do you hate about the Toy Story franchise? P.S. Really I was just joking around since that's a quote from the first movie and this is a TS4 thread.

To quote Buzz: "You are a sad, strange little man, and you have my pity." Also the movie isn't even out yet, how can you say you hate it?

My list of those 2008-2018 WDAS movies I've seen all the way through (haven't watched WiR2 yet and haven't finished BH6) 1. Frozen 2. Zootopia 3. Tangled 4. Wreck-It Ralph 5. Bolt 6. Meet the Robinsons 7. Moana 8. The Princess and the Frog (I would have probably liked it better if it had a different setting, 1930's bores me) 9. Winnie the Pooh Edited to add Pooh and Meet the Robinsons since I forgot those.

No, and Neytiri isn't either. From what I've heard, there are several requirements to be considered an official Disney Princess: 1. Must be a lead female in an animated Disney movie 2. Must be human 3. Must be born royal, marry a royal, or perform a significant act of heroism (hence Mulan) 3. Must have the movie be a success at the box office So Ripley wouldn't be one because of Rule 1, but you might be able to count Anastasia in a technicality (Probably won't happen, though). However, I could see Disney making a live-action remake of Anastasia. i think that if Hercules had made more money Meg would be considered one. She saved Hercules's life.

The Pixar team apparently said that after TS4 they're only doing original movies for the foreseeable future, so yay!

Probably because I2 was a sequel that people had been clamoring for since the first Incredibles came out. Whereas with Toy Story people thought TS3 was a perfect ending and 4's existence is just a cash-grab. By the sound of the reviews it's paying off though and actually good. I heard a few years back when TS4 was first announced, the main plot was going to revolve around them finding Bo Peep, but closer to release they changed 75% of the script. While finding Bo does play a factor here, I'm relieved that judging by the trailer the plot more revolves around Forky and the existentialism of what makes a toy alive in the TS universe rather than something that seemed more "TV special plot" level than theatrical.

The leaves surrounding everyone in the top part give me such Pocahontas vibes and I love it.

Not if they got some sort of super-billain who potentially resurrected magically-enhanced clones of the villains like Queen Grimhilde, Mother Gothel, Lady Tremaine... maybe even featuring Chernabog.

Fun fact, a few years ago before they planned to make Frozen 2 Jennifer Lee did reveal why Elsa was given powers—she was born during a planetary alignment on the winter solstice. I'm not sure if they'll retcon it in the sequel, but that was the explanation. That's also one reason why I think Anna is going to get powers in the sequel (well, that and the fact that Anna has leaves swirling around her in a sticker sheet that was released), because she was born on the summer solstice. In this case, they weren't forced to. Jennifer Lee said initially they weren't going to make a sequel, but her and Chris Buck were discussing Frozen one day, realized "Wait a minute, that's the avenue we haven't explored yet" and then got the idea for the sequel. I hate forced sequels as well, but by the sound of it this sequel came out through them just realizing there was more they wanted to tell with these characters, rather than Disney forcefully mandating it as was probably the case for Cars 2 and such. The reason LiG drove so many people crazy is because it was overplayed to many people. It was on the radio, there were covers, people were singing it everywhere, heck, Good Morning America even had a live Let It Go sing-along. People for some baffling reason tend to hate on things just because they're popular (I guess they think it makes them "cool" or something). They didn't have a problem with "Let It Go" as a song, just that it was overplayed, similar to My Heart Will Go On reportedly was with Titanic. Into the Unknown or some other song in the movie (presumably whichever one they release on Youtube before the film releases like with LiG if it's a good enough song) will probably get backlash the same way if/when it gets overplayed as well.

Huh, if that's the case then I'm guessing Eywa is going to speak through a projection of Grace or something. Cool!

I have no doubt this movie will do insanely well, but it won't be topping Endgame in box office gross.

In the first one Anna was 18 and Elsa was 21. Not sure how much time has passed in the sequel.

Watching GMA, seems like by the lineup shown at the start they'll be showing the Frozen 2 trailer closer to the end, but I'm keeping it on just in case so I don't miss it.

Considering how popular the Marvel films are, absolutely yes.

I personally don't want there to be any romance for Elsa period. I'd rather just focus on the adventure.

Your comment gets a like for referencing one of my favorite childhood movies! The Child Catcher always freaked me out though. XD

I don't get why pointing that out is a problem. I'm afraid of spiders, so I wouldn't go anywhere near them. Not the case with people.

I'm not scared of gay people. However, I know people/relatives who think media is normalizing homosexuality as brainwashing to confuse people and if they insert that in Frozen I'd never hear the end of it.

Why do people want to shoehorn characters being gay into everything again? You want a character to be gay, fine. But have it be an original character who's not already established from a previous movie and not shoehorn an orientation in to push a "representation" agenda when gay people are only 4% of the population when people want to push it and act like its 20%. Like a character for their actual character, don't just say "I just like this character because they're gay for no reason".

Not gonna happen, nor should it. Please.

Anyone know what time?

By the looks of it it seems the last archive for the Box Office Derby section was in 2008. Shame, I'm sure the Avatar thread was insane. Oh yeah, I know, that's the entire reason I joined here in the first place. XD Frozen's box office run was called "Frozetar" in the thread at points because they had similar "okay start then WOM explosion to a cultural phenomenon" runs by the looks of it.
