This movie feels really "late". I remember my best friend in elementary school reading these fifteen years ago. I had completely forgotten about it's existence until these past few weeks. Also, some parents might be turned off by the potty humor, so it won't have the family friendly legs that most animated films seem to have.

Was listening to the radio when the song Edge of Seventeen came on. Realized that I associate the song more with School of Rock than Stevie Nicks. Got me thinking which songs have been associated with their use in movies, like "A thousand miles" in White Chicks and "Stuck in the middle with you" in Reservoir Dogs.
"Back In Black" in Iron Man, and "Angel of the Morning" in Deadpool.

I would really LOVE to get the chance to see this in a theater. The 3D re release came out only weeks before I got into movies so I just missed it
My gf at the time saw the 3D edition with me and we both bawled our eyes out at the end. It's definitely more powerful in a cinematic setting.

Pirates 5 has a good Fandango want to see it number, a strong marketing effort from Disney (definitely not treating it like a throwaway), good test screening reactions, and early tracking beginning of the month was 90-100m 4 day (and Disney films usually match or exceed tracking)
while I think it will decrease from 4 I think it will get over 200m
900m I think is the goal for another installment to be greenlit
Is this Johnny Depp's final outing as Sparrow? The trailers seem to imply that, but I could see Depp holding on to this franchise due to it being his only marketable venture these days.

Hoping Covenant is slightly overestimated and Guardians takes the crown a third time.

Jurassic Park just did a 14 year hiatus, Rocky took a 16 year than a 9 year one, Indiana Jones was an other very long one one, Beauty and the beast was 26 year, there is probably a short list but still a list of franchise that could take a 10-15 year's break and not be completely forgotten (Bond I would imagine too),
The main problem that Avatar has compared to those is that it's still only one film at this point. Also, a lot of the reason people liked it was the 3D novelty as well as the graphics, a sentiment many people I know sadly share. Unless the technology is significantly upped for these sequels, I don't see a huge turnout.

I don't think this will drop too terribly. Despite the decline of this franchise, I think there's still a floor for these. Somewhere between 200M and TF4's 245M is where I see it landing, although 180-190M isn't completely out of the question, either.

Although interest is still there somewhat, how much damage will the 11 year wait do? I was 17 and a junior in high school when this came out, and when this eventually comes out, it will have been nearly five years since I graduated college. Aside from Star Wars, what other franchise can withstand such a long time gap with general audiences?

With this insane bump in video sales, mostly due to the Trump effect, who else thinks it could have made a killing at the BO had it released closer to the election in August/September? Of course, a lot of people would see that it was pandering for the election effect, something Bay didn't want to associate with the film, but it still would've been interesting to see.

Pirates 5 is gonna drop HUGE worldwide, and while TF is a fleeting ship domestically its overseas profits seem unlikely to drop that badly.
Pirates will also have a six year gap between films versus TF's three years. Plus robots sell more tickets than pirates.

The $30 mil budget is what's surprising to me. Have animation costs really gone down that much, or is it just good management? Either way, after the budget fiasco of GB, Sony could use a breakout hit that's cheap.

There's supposedly a teaser trailer coming out in two days.

Most forced franchise ever. Incredibles deserved to be a trilogy way before Cars.

OK, you clearly have no idea what it takes to make an animated feature.
How so? Animated sequels to other franchises have been pumped out in half the time.

Yeah, Toy Story 3 bombed so hard with an 11-year delay.
Apples to Oranges comparison.
Toy Story is a much higher regarded series with a decade of pent up demand that translated into it's box office haul. TS also debuted when 3d animation was in it's infancy. There was barely any competition in that regard.
HTTYD doesn't even have half of that demand. It's likability is up there with TS, but that didn't stop HTTYD2 from declining domestically. As I mentioned above, 3d animation is so commonplace, it's not special anymore. What worked for TS3 isn't going to work with HTTYD3. Sequels need to release more often these days for a series to stay relevant.

What's with the long delays between these films? The three years between each Shrek was pushing it, but four ways is way too long for audiences to wait.

I thought Daniel Craig had one more film in his contract.

I don't know why, but I still get excited for these every time one of them comes out.

Good trailer, although after eight years, this feels way too late. Not to mention that Cloverfield was never a huge movie in the first place.
-
These numbers are boring. March needs to come.

Andy... He's done it already. Titanic and now avatar... Never doubt the only guy in history who pulled off back to back all time world breakers and this man coincedentally also has the biggest major BBC sequel jump.
Terminator to terminator II. Note:Terminator II and aliens are widely heralded as the greatest sequels of all-time.
If Avatar II is his new terminator II... Then there won't be a decrease domestically or os. All time headlines for the domestic and.os are very very likely.
You do realize that T1's gross was really low, right?

Damn. 13 Hours is doing way worse than I thought it would. You'd think with all the political polarization of that event, that a significant portion of American movie-goers would be flocking to it.

There's not much to speculate on until Cameron can pull his head out of his ass and settle on a release date.

4 more Transformers confirmed... no Pacific Rim 2...
Crying myself to sleep tonight.
If PR grossed anymore close to what the TF films did, then a sequel would be getting made.

True, but with this, it's right there in your face. That might turn off some of the more conservative audience members out there.
