CAYOM YEAR 9 - PART I - MOVIE SUBMISSION
YM! replied to Alpha's topic in Create A Year Of Movies (CAYOM)
The First Water War Studio: Infinite Studios Release Date: 8/31/Y9 Genre: Family Comedy Director: David Bowers Rating: PG for rude humor Budget: $20M Theater Count: 3,201 Runtime: 88 minutes Cast: Unknowns Plot: A drought has hit Los Angles hard on the last week of August. Just as kids are about to back to school in just a week, incoming 5th graders twins; the brave and bold Kimmy and the intelligent but nervous Kenny are taking a bike ride with their friends attempting to find a place to cool down. To their surprise, they find a secret lake, perfect to cool down in. With their newfound discovery, the kids claim the terrority. Unfortunately, the good times get complicated when more children discover and want the territory including; the brutish and sporty 7th graders, their bratty 10th grade older sister Karen and her teenage friends and crushes and a militant and resourceful group of kindergarteners. Kimmy decides to settle this once and for all as she declares a Water War where they settle the score with water balloons and water guns; last one dry wins the lake for their group. Rules are added such as no human shielding, no cars for the teens, and that they can add as many recruitments as they went. The leaders agree as Kenny feels frustrated that his friends don’t takes him seriously and would rather listen to Kimmy, and is hurt when his sister notes he’s her second in command instead of equals. The next day, the Water War begins as brutal water fight breaks out as balloons burst and guns spray. Each group has a strategy: the kindergartners act as mini-ninjas in the trees with balloons to have with element of surprise, 7th graders using skateboards as the teens do divide and conquer tactics as the fifth graders stay as a group. Many are eliminated including friends, enemies and Karen until it’s just five kids; Kimmy, Kenny, a teen and two 7th graders. Kenny has a good plan but Kimmy would rather use brute force, the two argue as Kenny accidentally throws a balloon at Kimmy, eliminating her as he then gets spotted and eliminated. The teen wins as Kenny is chewed out by his friends and Kimmy is hurt by her brother/best friend’s betrayal. The next day, the kids learn that a snooty rich frat bro has secluded the spot, as Kenny rouses up all the groups for one last stand as they all know what it’s like to be pushed around by someone older and at the end of the day, it’s there time. The children and teens unite and bombard the frat brothers into leaving with their water weapons. A treaty is made to share the lake, as Kimmy and Kenny make up. The group relaxes in their new place, as they celebrate the last day of summer. -
Cayom Y9 Discussion Thread || Review Phase Underway
YM! replied to SLAM!'s topic in Create A Year Of Movies (CAYOM)
Matilda I’ll drop during the weekend. The thing is good to go, grammar edited but I want to mediate on it a bit. Hollow I’m having a draft done by Friday as progress as going good but Joyride really depends on how much I get done Sunday. Working on a few smaller fillers to hold in some spots today. Priority wise for filler films that could drop Monday night: Off-Road 2 Crunch Time HOOOOOPs Romance Road 2 Frog and Toad Fire and Ice -

Matilda and the Night Children will come sometime tonight Sleepy Hollow and Joyride I want out by Saturday. A handful of filler sequels and things from my disposable will be rushed to make the deadline: Fire and Ice, my VFX horror movie Crunch Time, Frog and Toad if Thanksgiving animation is needed, Off Road 2, and/or Romance Road 2. -
Again I honestly don’t get how that’s disappointing either. It’s a solid jump. I just think peoples’ expectations got way out of hand. (Thought I think if it was better reviewed, it might have done 5-10% more tops but even then some viewed it as disappointing). When I say diminishing returns I mean more so the jumps not being as much as hoped for or maybe some falling or doing roughly the same as their Phase 3 installments.

Shang Chi is in my top 10, with Strange 2 just in the top 15, NWH I think is 16. So suggesting the possibility of diminishing returns is equivalent to calling them bombs despite no one here is thinking it’d bomb or underperform. I think you got it the other way around. People aren’t saying the MCU is doomed forever or every film is an underperformer lol.

Tbh I think they’ll do that and the girls as adults.

2023 Box Office Predictions and Discussion
YM! replied to The Wild Eric's topic in Box Office Discussion
Okay. I thought it was lower tier MCU but about the same as a number of origin movies like Homecoming and Black Widow. A 3/5, see it once and I’m good. I just don’t think the proof is there for such a large drop, even though I think a drop is happening due to how much it made. It’s really rare for a tentpole to drop that much, even if it is really disliked and I’m not really seeing much of an indication that Captain Marvel is going to fall by about 50% from the past entries unless it was consecutively bad repeated installments over time. It would be on the scale of TLK from AoE and that had a plethora of problems from bad reviews to the last one being far more disliked than almost any MCU movie. -

That’s the thing how was it controversial, it was basically a standard MCU flick lol. -

Honestly, The Marvels sub 700m just seems like unrealistic hope for those who really hated the movie or were oddly mad at Larson for her opinion and just can’t let it go. I mean Thor: The Dark World is easily the worst MCU but it jumped with Ragnarok, compared to Captain Marvel which if we look outside of a loud Internet vocal minority, WOM was in line with other MCU flicks. No Marvel movie has dropped that much and with the rumor and true additions, I doubt it goes below $800m at the bare minimum as it seems to be the movie that they’re shaping up to be the event MCU movie. I think a fall will happen due to China and it hitting a zeitgeist but I think 300m+ and 850m+ is pretty much locked provided Feige and DeCosta deliver the goods. -
