  1. More and more Pixar movies have been getting the PG rating lately.
  2. Ice Age 2 and 3 did about the same domestically, both in the $190M range, maybe it can happen with HT3 but that seems unlikely.
  3. Animated Spider-Man should do solid numbers but I wonder how HT3 will fare. For all we know, it could perform an Ice Age 3 on us (left the lucrative March spot to the July spot and made big numbers) or it could be a KFP3.
  4. Ninjago and Kingsman both have 9 showings on Friday, Saturday and Sunday at North Shore. However on a nice note, recently Marcus Cinemas has started showings for those with special needs on Saturday. Ninjago has a showing on it's opening Saturday (along with Pony, Thor, JL, Coco, Jedi, Ferdinand, Paddington 2, Peter Rabbit, and Black Panther) for those with special needs which is a very nice and kind thing to do, so everyone can see and have the chance to see a movie.
  5. In 2020, Universal will have 4 animated sequels (Trolls 2, Minions 2, Croods 2, and Sing 2).
  6. To be honest I am really excited for Kingsman. I'm buying tickets tomorrow. I just want $100M from Ninjago. Although if it happens I get another club victory, I'm happy as long as Ninjago does good.
  7. There's also a Netflix show but I wonder if it'll hurt more than help.
  8. MLP seems more likely to attract girls and Ninjago will be more likely to attract boys.
  9. For Reference: Warner Bros unleashes The Lego Ninjago Movie and Fox churns out another installment of its franchise Kingsman: The Golden Circle, both of which will go into wide release with previews Thursday night.
  10. Ninjago is having Thursday previews. An article in DHD has confirmed it, it's just that times haven't been uploaded.
  11. I think part of the reason Animation is doing okay this year was because of how big last year was. I think 2018 will be a solid rebound.
  12. Especially with WB marketing power. I mean they definitely aren't as bad as say SPA or Paramount. They are doing better than Blue Sky too but they can be so much stronger.
  13. I'm not too worried, from the looks of it presales (which are 90% of Boss Baby which seems likely for $30M-$40M OW) are much better than Emoji and CU, it's appeared on MT yesterday, on a Monday which is kind of rare for animated movies outside of Disney/Pixar/Illumination, appeared on Pulse Sunday night and all day yesterday, with one time jumping over Kingsman and reviews will be decent to say the least.
  14. Lots of animated movies with good reception have had Wednesday embargoes, Peanuts, Storks, and Captain Underpants for example. I do agree WB needs more marketing effort for future WAG films if they want the big dollars.
  15. Ninjago has been confirmed via DHD for Thursday previews but we probably get an update tonight for theaters. The reception for the early screening is fun but not as good as the first two Lego movies.
  16. To be fair I agree we shouldn't expect big numbers from this but a $35M/$115M performance is not the death sentence for Ninjago. It is still very good numbers. Presales are looking decent (90% of Boss Baby), and has been doing well on MT and Fandango. I do agree that buzz can be a bit bigger.
