So no TIFF audience choice in the best picture line up this year? That is a blow to an already weaker BP line up year, I guess neon doesn’t want to be distracted since they already have Anora in hand. And it is very difficult to campaign two movies into the final race of BP.

Fair enough. Wild Robot does look pretty af though
That’s kind of my worry atm, idk if it is having solid international turnout, cus it looks like it’s on par with TFOne when comparing the markets they share. It’s a decent bit better in austrailia, practically tied in Malaysia and is likely going to be outpaced in China once TFOne actually comes out
In Australia, Wild Robot has 2 million, TFOne has 1.6 millionIn China, Wild Robot has 3.7 million, TFOne has 3.2 million
In Malaysia, Wild Robot has 392,000, TFOne has 388,000
I might be wrong on the Malaysia one cus I got the info from here and converted it but still
in the few markets they’re sharing, Wild Robot doesn’t look like it’s doing much better than TFOne is.
Malaysia opening is pretty in line with Elemental but the different is that Wild robot debut during one-week school holiday.
I saw the movie during sneak preview 2 weeks ago, and I love the end credit song "Even when I am not" so much but couldn't find any trace online because the official soundtrack hasn't been release. So i have to wait to USA debut to listen back to that song.

So Transformers One is basically LEGO Ninjago adjusted for inflation. Cool.
Now let’s see Wild Robot be another Home for Dreamworks.
Wild Robot deserve attention. I foresee a minimum A cinemascore, could be even A+.

The movie is little short, hope this can be 10min longer especially for its third act. I rate this on par with PIB2 although i think its visual feat is above anything we have seen in this year.

Wow just 6.1 million true Friday is horrible
What is more horrible, all holdovers seem dropping hard against this non-starter, except DW. Speaking of DW, the movie has been holding so well is a genuine surprise to me. Just like IO2, their legs are the more surprising one compared to their already mega-sized OW.

Knocks out another potential 100m grosser from the 2024 till, looking like 23 or so now. Need Wild Robot and a non-Sonic/Mufasa December release to overperform.
We may still have some surprise hit in the next 3 months. Of the 100m movie thus far, Bettlejuice and IEWU are the most surprising pair.

I was investigating why TFOne failed to garner support and come across this name
SpoilerChris Hemsworth
For whatever reason, the curse continues....

Lionsgate actually had a good 2023. Their John Wick 4 is a big hit and HG prequel legged out to a decent sized hit too. Saw X is also profitable and Jesus revolution was a surprise hit. On top of that, Margaret is critically acclaimed. Sad to see the situation quickly deteriorate at their end.

I think bay version of transformer can accustom audience perception of transformer franchise as large scale action visual extravaganza. Turning this into animated film just make the movie feel smaller. The same would happened to Godzilla or Kong franchise if they turned it to animation. This approach doesn’t work especially for Asian audience who has been one of the most friendly bunch to transformer franchise. We would see if the same would happened to LOTR animated film this December.

Summer went very well in French cinema. Both movies especially the count show insane late legs. I thought A little something extra would have to crawl past 10m but it did it quite comfortably. Two French movies doing so great remind me that we may never get another European phenomenon run like Intouchables

Very good Tuesday.
Tuesday bump has been stronger in 2024. Probably the reason why they do away national cinema day since Tuesday is already playing that role.

So with this article, who is the real director of IO2? It looked like Pete Doctor involvement is way more substantial that the headline suggests.
I am glad the final product is great. IO2 is the best Pixar sequel outside of Toy Story franchise. I would even call it has the better third act compared to the original IO.

Mid-autumn remain bad at the China BO as the whole market only generate 380M, not comparable to 2023 as mid-autumn last year was part of the national golden week. Still, 380m is even worse than the Covid-year like 2021 and one of the worst in a decade.

didnt the fil get a lot of controversy for not focusing on his sexuality enough?
Still a whole a lot more than whatever they did with Lightyear, and of course more developed. Yes, Freddie Mercury star power may ease some barrier but BR's direction made whole gay or bisexual experience especially in term of loneliness is a lot more relatable to the straight crowd, which still made up majority of the population in the world today. BR's controversy is mostly related to its director's involvement in the sexual crime and surprisingly little from "anti-woke" crowd especially in the post-Trump era.

Unlike Triangle of Sadness and AoF, Anora rank number 3 in TIFF audience bold well to its general audience potential like Parasite. Should be able to double from the 5m-ish like the previous two Neon's Oscar contenders.

I think people forgot Bohemian Rhapsody, a movie featuring gay kisses, made 900m+ in 2018. Yes, 6 years since then the world actually got regressed and less friendly to LGBT community thanks to backlash against woke. So asking a billionaire to scarify their profit for LGBT, probably is too much for Disney-Pixar, on top of the already weakened US soft power. Yes money talks, the ultimate form of capitalist. But if Disney is serious about representation, they should start somewhere smaller, like Pixar-Searchlight banner. Not everything has to be billion dollar hit. A cult hit like Caroline is more than enough for confidence building.

All these Pixar film already cost over 200m, wonder how can this still causing mistreatment of the labour. Just where did all the money went?

Life of Chunk is gonna be another BP nominee that saved by TIFF audience award after less positive critical reception. I remember Jojo rabbit came out to rotten RT score but the TIFF award change the course of that movie. Similar to GB.

If bettlejuice having terrible finish at the presale to the point where people start doubting its 100m, only somehow had a nice come back with that surprise Saturday bump, TFone should have something similar.

If WOM is "good".
It would have to be more than good. Even Bohemian Rhapsody didn't hit that pre pandemic. Post pandemic SK has had 2 films a year over 10m admissions - all SK films.
The last time there were more than 2 was 2019 with Endgame, Frozen 2, Aladdin, Parasite, and Extreme Job. It was an out of the ordinary year. The year before that - 2. The year before that - 1.
And 1/7th of DW in Brazil - is that supposed to be great?
Avatar 2 did over 10m there.

Is it important that every movie be for everyone all over the world? Not everything translates well to every culture, especially comedies. And Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice isn't even a case of some huge international box office decline from the previous installment (like Twisters), as the first one wasn't some massive worldwide hit in 1988. It was a hit in America, and now the sequel is a massive hit in America. The overseas gross seems more like icing on the cake for this kind of thing.
yes, at least for Hollywood and soft power for USA.
For a 200m domestic grosser to make less than 40% overseas, this only happened once back in early 2015 with American sniper. Beyond that, we have to go back to 2012 for Lorax , or 2009 Star Trek. Not even hangover, bridesmaids or ted , the comedy you claim, was this domestic heavy. And this year looks like we are getting two.
