Well, I mean on a massive screen. -
"It could have done worse. Tomorrowland did better." How does this make any sense?
-
I'm tempted to go see it again on an IMAX screen. I wanted the screen to cover me entire peripheral vision. It's mental. I may go see it again at my cinema but sit right at the front.
-
It's finally happened. A movie has been released which should be seen in 3D. Final act is nauseatingly breathtaking.

Vin is everyone's father. We are all family.

Does anyone else think Vin Diesel (in his normal voice, not his FF voice) sounds identical to Elliott Gould?
-
I don't think it's about quality. Plenty of those sequels opened significantly lower than the original, and many of them are very well liked. It just seems that higher grosses from sequels are rarer when it comes to animated films. I suspect a large part of this comes down to the fact that kids grow very rapidly. Something which they love one year... well four years later their tastes will have changed. So it's more difficult to keep hold of the audience which liked the first movie.

This is true of a lot of things. Plenty of people may complain about sequels and remakes of 30 year old movies, while they celebrate the third Spider-Man franchise in the space of a decade. They'll complain about Divergent finale being split, while they watch Mockingjay five times over.

Look at the bigger picture, there are plenty of successful, well-liked animated family movies which had a sequel which didn't outgross the original. All grosses adjusted for inflation. Ice Age: $255M Ice Age 2: $250M Monsters Inc: $378M Monsters Uni: $279M Kung Fu Panda: $252M Kung Fu Panda 2: $172M Madagascar: $253M Madagascar 2: $210M How to Train Your Dragon: $230M How to Train Your Dragon 2: $177M Cars: $313M Cars 2: $201M Happy Feet: $252M Happy Feet 2: $69M Seeing a trend?

Dunno what the book's like but the film had the audience roaring with laughter throughout, both times I saw it. Safe to say it is upbeat and funny.
-
This should be the name of the next one. "Fast Family 8"

Pan and Hotel Transylvania 2 opening the same weekend here... -
I really wanna watch this but it ain't on any VOD sites that I can see.
-
It's been obvious for months this is the last Craig Bond movie, with so much discussion about who the next actor will be.

Well, can't disagree with that.
-
No, it's not science fiction; it's not even fiction. Look up in the sky, look really close and you'll see Matt Damon is actually trapped on Mars.
-
No, sorry the film was hilarious throughout. Anyway the film is still very upbeat, at least for kids - who won't necessarily understand all of the deeper undertones. Do you somehow think the movie would have done better if the trailers had been super-serious and sad? Also, I think this TGD trailer is going to set a new standard for me - this will be the first ever trailer I've actively avoided. The teaser was enough for me, and I need to test myself to see how well I can hold up against Star Wars marketing...
-
What are you saying about IO? That the trailers were funny but the movie wasn't? Inside Out was one of the most hysterical films I've seen in years. Everyone in the audience was practically wetting themselves.
-
It came out last week and I was busy last weekend so didn't have the chance to see it. Catching up with last week's + this week's at the weekend.
-
I think it's good that they are kickstarting the careers of new talent.
-
I'm seeing it again tomorrow. Aaaaand then over the weekend Solace, Macbeth, Sicario, Regression, The Walk, Pan, Hotel Transylvania, and Suffragette. Hectic.
