People thought Klaus would pull a Spider-verse but I'm pretty sure TS4 was the frontrunner.
As both the highest grossing and best reviewed nominee, it would have been unprecedented for it not to win.

Historically, the award has always gone to either the highest grossing nominee or the best reviewed. Either way, TS4 is the expected winner.

You'll notice that that figure comes from Olaf measuring himself. He probably lined up all his parts end to end so he'd be as tall as possible.

Before we get too wrapped up in the OW numbers, it's important to ask the real question:
What's going to happen when Frozen II Sing-a-long gets released?
Unfortunately, this one's not as singalongable as the first.

So why does all the promotional stuff I've seen for this recently say that it was "nominated" for an Academy Award? Do they not realize that they won?

I've added this year's nominations to my ongoing graph, and based on past performance, there appear to be two serious contenders: the one that made all the money, and the one that actually deserves it.

My one nitpick is "Buzztube", I would've loved if they could've just used YouTube (considering they called every company by their name, even Google itself)
It's just like how the three games that were the main settings of the first movie were originals, while all the minor ones were real-world games.

Recently had the chance to see it in my local 70mm IMAX theater. While the giant screen was nice for a few scenes, it didn't really add much value to the movie as a whole.
Also, it turns out that film is not always superior. During the silent scene, I could clearly hear the projector clicking away, which kind of spoiled the moment.

It's funny that the people supposedly pushing for equality, equity and diversity, are the ones most obsessed with race, gender et cetera.
When you want to correct an imbalance, you need to pay attention to the things that form that imbalance.

His sincerity is played up as the joke. "Look how square this guy is, isn't it funny and quaint?"
I think that reaction says more about you than about the movie. Key line: "People might just need a little old fashioned."

Superhero is not a genre.
Someday, people will make their peace with that simple fact.
I wouldn't hold out too much hope, given that they still call animation a genre.

LAST JEDI THOUGHT
If the hyperdrive suicide bomb is so effective why don't they make small unmanned ships and launch them at each other?
The Resistance cruiser was one of the largest capital ships around. Rogue One shows us what happens when a fighter or transport hits a capital ship while jumping to lightspeed: it just splatters on the shields.

Also, massive record-breaking breakout hits like TFA, Avengers, Jurassic World, Black Panther and so on usually tend to have their sequels drop to some degree from the first film, because breaking out to that degree tends to require some form of novelty (first cinematic superhero team-up movie, a triumphant franchise return, first (modern) black superhero movie and so on.) The second movies lose that novelty and thus tend to drop. The only reason people are assuming otherwise for A4 is because the biggest moment in IW was literally a cliffhanger leading into it. (And even then I still kinda think A4 is going to decrease from it.)
On the one hand, sequels to breakout hits tend to decrease. On the other, popular series finales tend to increase (see SW OT, SW PT, HP). The question is which trend will dominate for Avengers.

It was a movie. There were parts I liked, parts that were tedious, and a lot of parts I've already forgotten.
Not essential viewing.

Just like people actively dislike HAN SOLO?
They didn't show up to Justice League for many reasons. "Disliking the heroes" was not one of them.
I'm one of those who didn't show up to Justice League, and that certainly was one of the reasons.

is this a joke or what you actually believe?
Half joke, half low end of expectation. I actually think A < A2+A3 < 1.5A is more likely.

You're saying the Pit of Voles has improved in recent years?

I think most of my problems with this movie stem from the fact that I watched thinking of it as a superhero movie, when it isn't one. Sure, it has "Avengers" in the title, and has a couple dozen heroes, but the movie isn't about them. It's all about Thanos. It's a supervillain movie, and a fairly good one.

Is it safe to say MCU is more popular than Star Wars?
It's safe to say that Disney has taken over the world.

It will be interesting to see what the actuals look like. The estimates have it beating TFA by less than 1%, which is well within the margin of error.

Only thing that frustrated me a bit in the movie was Vision. I really don't get how he went from being the all powerful being in Ultron to getting stabbed once and have to be carried for the rest of the movie in this. I'm not one to focus too much on plot details, power levels, plot holes etc I don't care most of the time but this is bothering me for whatever reason.
I figure that while he was all-powerful by human standards, Thanos had encountered something like him before, and knew of a weakness.

Is 600 million a done deal if the opening is 250M? The reception to this movie makes me think it shouldn't have legs equal to or lower than AOU, despite the monster opening. 2.5x seems right.
So far, every 200M+ opener has gone on to make at least 600M. I see no reason for this to break the streak, especially if it's that far over 200M.
