November also looked barren but could you blame for wanting to be hesitant to open something late July/August with the pattern of a mega Disney tentpole every two weeks.
Whilst I agree Godzilla 2 and Pika were lost causes, I can see Pets 2 and Shazam doing better if they weren’t sandwiched between two huge Disney films that competed for their demographic.
What happens if the GA gets tired of remakes? Or the MCU? Or Star Wars? Diversity is good for all Studios, I’ve liked the majority of Disney’s films this year but how is that them only doing well not a troubling thing?
The plot for Blue and Gold: Reaching Out has been revealed;
”It’s been a year since superhero best friends, the time traveling narcissist Michael Carter aka Booster Gold and the dorky yet extremely powerful Jaime Reyes aka Blue Beetle have saved the world. Unfortunately, as their friendship faces its biggest trial as during a drama filled school country road trip as Blue Beetle is succumbing in a battle for control against The Scarab, a Reach weapon from outer space that latched itself onto Jaime. Desperate for a cure, the two take a journey across the magical realm and the country whilst facing a diabolical teamup of their arch enemy Black Beetle and the dreaded member of the Reach, The Ambassador.”

Maya Matsuoka (Shoplifters), Colin Firth (Kingsman: The Secret Service) and Mark Hamill (Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Star Wars: The Last Jedi) join the cast of the still untitled Blue and Gold sequel.
Matsuoka will play Traci Thirteen/Girl 13, a young sorceress who draws into street magic.
Firth plays The Ambassador, a deadly Reach tactician who wants to use Blue Beetle to join the Reach army and plays the main antagonist alongside Michelle Rodriguez’s Black Beetle, being a more physiological threat.
Hamill will voice Jaime’s Scarab who has gained sentience and in battle for dominance over Jaime’s body.
The untitled sequel is slated for Y7 but the studio isn’t ruling out a Y6 release provided Thirsty gets done.

Speaking of WB, Steven Universe: The Movie would’ve done good with a theatrical release, say around TTG numbers. It’s the best animated film this year by a lot. As well as easily being the best musical apart from Rocketman.
