  1. Umm…”The Jungle Book (2016)”, anyone? That’s the one the critics considers to be THE best of the Disney remakes so far and an example of how the remakes should be. 🙆🏻‍♀️ And also….opinions. Everyone has an opinion of defending at least some of their favorites and one they like. Just because you don’t get why, doesn’t mean no one is ever or should be justifyingly allowed to like certain of the better Disney remakes. Nobody is dumb or not allowed to really like a Disney remake especially if it’s one of the better ones. There are no facts that not a single of the remakes are/or should be any good or well-received when in actuality, the good ones are usually the top-tier Disney remakes.
  2. Since we are on the subject of Star Wars movies, I just need to remind that Phantom Menace’s lifetime worldwide gross so far, is at $1.041B+. So the re-release had OS numbers to add up to the gross as well.
  3. Why did KFP3 had to underperform as poorly as it did back in 2016? Still drives me crazy to this day, that the third film never lived to it’s box office potential as much as other animated films at the time. 👩🏻‍💼🤦🏻‍♀️😣😔 A high RT-critic score in the mid/high 80’s and yet it never caught on so much in terms of box office in a pre-pandemic time, mind you. And i say it as someone who loves the third film as a fan of the franchise.
  4. Seems Phantom Menace actually grossed some OS money with the re-release. 💁🏻‍♀️😉 Adding to it’s OS lifetime gross. So it wasn’t a ”DOM”-only type of re-release after all.
  5. Nope. Though we don’t know yet how much TPM might overperform for it to open at the #1 slot.
  6. I’m really excited about the box office for the latest SW:TPM re-release and how more it will add to the film’s lifetime DOM gross. 👩🏻‍💼 Any fan who’s excited for seeing the film first time in theaters ever or at least since it’s previous re-release?
  7. Wonder how ”Star Wars: The Phantom Menace” re-release will do compared to the other re-releases we had recently? 🤷🏻‍♀️
  8. So far, GxK is at $521M+ WW and has a few millions left to outgross Godzilla for the second highest grossing film in the MonsterVerse, only behind Kong: Skull Island so far. 👩🏻‍💼🙂 And when it does, this will be the highest grossing MonsterVerse film which has Godzilla himself in it. 😉
  9. And both will eventually. Their runs aren’t over yet. GxK seems to be getting there a bit faster due to bigger OW, though somehow legs for it weren’t as glamorous despite the lesser competition in April.
  10. So what do you think? Will Deadpool & Wolverine be THE R-rated film to top The Passion of the Christ’s $370M DOM-record or will that film still keep it’s record for longer?
  11. Also, keep in mind that “The Passion of the Christ” grossed $370M+ DOM and in terms of R-rated movies, it’s still the biggest film in the US with that rating in twenty years as of now. The one R-rated movie that came closest to Passion’s DOM record was….funny enough, the first Deadpool with it’s $363M DOM gross with a $132M OW.
  12. It’s gonna be a nail biting suspense when GxK gets close to the $200M+ DOM mark. So far, only one Monsterverse film got there.
  13. I think both those kaijus could make future appearances. Rodan is still alive and around. And Monsterverse might find a way to smartly bring back Ghidorah in any way, shape or form…if they commit to it.
  14. Any previous Monsterverse film in the franchise you’d wish/want to see a theatrical re-release of?
  15. It’ll get there eventually in the end. Question is how higher gross than G14’s $200M+ DOM will GxK be at. $202-205M?
  16. How’s the $200M+ DOM goal looking for GxK? 😬🥶 Will WB try their best and push it to that mark? 🥺🙏🏻
  17. With a great audience WOM and that it opened with a huge $80M, why would it suddenly not get $200M+? Are there any other cases where a good/well-received blockbuster with a huge OW, didn’t get to $200M+ in the past? 🤷🏻‍♀️
  18. Speaking of theatrical re-releases of old movies that needs to happen in a special anniversary for more money….I want another re-release of the original ”The Lion King”! 🥺🙏🏻 Just $32M left to a billion worldwide! 😩😵‍💫
  19. Still waiting for an official 30th anniversary theatrical re-release of Disney’s “The Lion King (the original film)”. 🥶 It would be very stupid and foolish for theaters if they didn’t re-release that film back on the big screen again in any way. Especially since the film’s lifetime WW-gross is at $968M so far. $32M left to that $1B-mark, and yet we’ve never seen any new theatrical return for the film since the 3D-release back in 2011 (thirteen years ago).
  20. You guys aren’t alone when it comes to Toy Story 4. Loved it as well. And i watched all the TS films from the franchise. 🤩🙆🏻‍♀️ One of the several fourthquels that is both a crowd and critical pleaser, that many can enjoy. Still the highest grosser with $434M DOM & $1.073B WW. And as far as big animated fourthquels go…TS4 still has the highest RT-rating (97%) of all animated fourthquels.
  21. You’re not alone. I also really did like Jon Favreau’s take of TLK. First time when I saw it and I still rewatch it every time when I’m in a good “Lion King” mood. It’s not the 1994 version (which that is a masterpiece of a movie), but I liked it more than fine. 👩🏻‍💼 Seems like the hate that movie got and gets even to this day & age, are from those who really never liked the lesser Disney remakes to begin with, or just were so frustrated by it’s existence. I do get why certain are not fans of the 2019 version and that’s fine. More power to them. But the way the internet treats that film is almost like it’s the “Disney Remake” equivalent of Shyamalan’s “The Last Airbender movie”, though not as severely hated and disposable as that one. Like, if anyone’s allowed an unpopular opinion about liking TLK (2019), that would be going against the popular opinion. I checked both the critical and audience reception for The Lion King (2019) on Rotten Tomatoes. While the 52% critical score for the film is a bit more meh and “run of the mill” for a Disney remake, the audience score is at a high 88% miraculously. This film though seems to be in an interesting situation where unlike the last TLK-film, by the premise of it…this one doesn’t really sound like a beat for beat same film and instead is a prequel about one of the most iconic and popular characters from the entire TLK-franchise, Mufasa. And while it’s not going to make anywhere near the numbers of the previous film, it’ll do fine. Not a massive hit, but not a massive bomb either. And we don’t know exactly how much better or worse (or even a similar quality) than the last film, critics and audience will think of this. Maybe we’ll like it or dislike it more than TLK (2019). It’s more like a “wait and see” type of situation for this one. 🤷🏻‍♀️
