VHS you mean.

I'm not sure how that negates anything I've said. Still, the eventual partnership ending between both parties (Universal & Legendary) I view as mutual as both parties are on to greener pastures and have planned where they want to be. Universal in 2019 will have Dreamworks titles coming from them and with the combination of Jurassic Park, Furious, Borne, Minions IP among others, they don't need to pad out their schedule. Legendary in 2019, same thing applies to them - Kong & Godzilla partnership with WB, a bigger focus in China due to Wanda's involvement and also increasing their output in the TV space. There is no incentive to work together anymore.

Legendary owns the IP outright - Universal is acting as financier & distributor. If Universal declines (which I don't see them doing), I could see Lionsgate distribute the title in the US for a fee and Legendary finance the next film by itself due to Wanda's ownership of the studio and sell overseas rights much like Lionsgate does for its film - I mean, the important gross comes from China. The rest is gravy.

My post was sarcastic. Did you not the see the winky wink

It's not a sequel, duh. Get with the program CJohn

Thanks, I just checked on IMDB, seems I was mistaken as I thought the film released today in China like in Hong Kong but it will be released on the 24th. Again thanks for the kind reply

How's NYSM2 looking? HK thread mentions it's doing quite well there. How about China? I know currently it's all about Warcraft, still curious though.

Thank you

I think Ratchet & Clank released this week in France. How is it doing? Any projections.

I'm thinking slightly less, maybe China picks up the slack but that market is not a major YA territory. To be honest, I understand the lower gross - it felt like a duplicate copy of the Scorch Trials, only worse.

Wow huge for Zootopia - it's a great film, glad it's performing well. How's God's of Egypt performing?

How's Zoolander looking RTH? Disappointing like domestic cume?

I hope so The last movie was deemed as a disappointment so I'm hopeful that this film will be more successful, and better as well, especially in pacing. It also helps that the pre-sale tickets are available a month earlier than the usual and with Arceus as you mentioned (a possibility to get a shinty to boot). Maybe it was a conscious decision to release it earlier as more traffic in movie theaters (Doraemon) = more portential sales

Pokemon pre-sale movie tickets are set to be available on March 7th. Are we expecting anything?
