The 3D-mania was still strong at that time apparently. -
Can Canada's 37m inhabitants really have such a big impact? US has almost 300m more after all.

I look forward to finding out Disney's approach to this. But will probably not see the movie, never cared for either the dogs or Cruella.

Maleficent: Mistress of Evil | October 18 2019 | Now on Disney+
Thomas Beck replied to CJohn's topic in Box Office Discussion
Well, the trailer looked interesting enough, some good scenes (hopefully) with Jolie in full Maleficent mode. Kinda nervous about the storyline though. Maleficent was the first movie I watched in cinema after a long dry-spell and the first 3D-movie I ever saw so it left an impression at the time. This one will almost certainly fail to measure up, but will give it a try of course. -
How to Train Your Dragon 2. So should have been T instead of C. Too much darn Pokemons on my mind right now! And also 2 instead of 1. Too many sequels to keep track of!
-
Same as when HTCYD1 was released, people thought it would have more appeal than it ended up having. (But then the breakdowns here were more epic)
-
Hm, I like the MCU too, but that is a bit too much. It probably won't save the planet.
-
Is there a point to hitting anywhere else?
-
They think she's too outspoken on subjects they don't care for. And she doesn't show her boobs either.
-
So people mainly want to to see bigger than life movies at the cinema. Makes sense as you might just as well see anything else comfortably in your home, but a good spectacle requires the big screen.

There are only two Shrek movies.

Retell what? This is a sequel so they should be on new territory unless I am missing something. -
Not really a problem. When people actually get tired of remakes/reboots/sequels then they will stop supporting them and studios will be forced to make original content instead. Or possibly shut the door and give up. Will probably not happen anytime soon.
-
That looks too scary for me. Might have to pass on this one.
-
Kind of getting GoT vibes here. The books that is, not the TV-series. But Disney is probably involved enough in what Cameron's doing not to make this accouncement without being confident that it's coming along, albeit slowly.
-
What about the Gambit movie?
-
Very considerate of Disney to give me another year to get Avatar 1 watched.
-
no.
-
Wouldn't make sense, the book had two parts (even if interleaved).
-
What else could they sell it as?
-
Seems inflation will not help according to BOM. https://www.boxofficemojo.com/alltime/adjusted.htm Both Black Panther and IW has lower adjusted than actual gross for some reason.

Weren't there more small cinemas around back in the good old days? The little backwater that I live in (not in US) had its own cinema when I was a kid, but it's long been out of business now and the whole place been razed into the ground.
-
And also far smaller population. US 1940 had 132M as opposed to 327M now.
-
I would go at least. Haven't actually seen Avatar yet, so should get it done before Avatar 2 hits, and watching it in cinemas would be preferable to TV.
-
But maybe there are more people going to the cinemas globally these days?
