  1. Mulan will have huge amounts of that China money. Beasts 2 is a wild card though.
  2. One word my movieman: Nostalgia. For my generation, the millennials, The Incredibles is one of those movies that'll have that power for us. And given the popularity of current superhero movies although it's not a lock but it could happen. Poppins I could see $200M, but it reminds me more of ITW/PATF than Sing.
  3. I've talked to both @DAJK and @That One Valerian so we're good!
  4. However it's not doom and gloom just yet. I could see Black Panther and Wrinkle in their top 5 domestic, even though they are adaptations both are very risky.
  5. Dumbo, Mary Poppins, Jungle Book 2, Nutcracker, Little Mermaid, Cruella, Winnie The Pooh, Pinocchio, etc. don't count.
  6. Still the only remakes I'd consider seeing would be TLK, Mulan, and Guy Richie Aladdin.
  7. Same here, even some of Disney's franchises/brands can do something creative (like Marvel Studios, Lucasfilm SW solo films, Pixar and WDAS), but cut out those films their slate is awful.
  8. IT is still a remake/sequel though. King Arthur could fit in. Even WB isn't immune outside of New Line and comedies, the only time they do an original film is when Affleck or Nolan has something.
  9. IT, Underpants, and maybe King Arthur count as Adaptations/Remakes/Brands. However I'd like to see Disney revitalize Touchstone, for comedies, dramas, sci-fi, and action films. If Disney did what they're doing now and 5-7 Touchstone films a year, they could have over 50% of the market share.
  10. The big three will be Infinity War, JW2, and Incredibles 2. However I'm expecting and seeing a lot of break outs.
  11. To be honest, although I like Lucasfilm/Marvel/WDAS/Pixar, Disney's live action slate has become nothing but cash grab remakes, if they were to remake a less beloved animated movie like Atlantis/Brother Bear/Treasure Planet, I'd be okay with that since there's a good chance it can improve. Disney used to bring use stuff more original live action films like Pirates, Flubber, National Treasure, etc. Remakes should be use to redo bad/mediocre/flawed films. Although Pixar is breaking free from their sequel state (Pixar said after TS4, their next 5 films will be original), and WDAS only doing 2 sequels seems to be a good sign, The only non Lucasfilm/Marvel films like @That One Valerian said before, I'm anticipating are Wrinkle In Time, Incredibles 2, Coco, and Wreck It Ralph 2.
  12. In 1995, Toy Story was the first entirely CGI animated movie but went on to become the highest grossing movie of 1995. Disney has low expectations for it, and it broke out hugely. I'm not saying Disney's slate is original, in fact it's not and from a creative standpoint I'm disappointed, but they do release an original movie every year though the majority are animated. Disney, seems to be trying to branch out with Jungle Cruise and Magic Camp, even some if it's untitled films are untitled live action not untitled fairy tale.
  13. I still would be out of time, the test ends at 2 PM EST.
  14. Still, just because it's animated even from Pixar/WDAS doesn't mean it's not original.
  15. So Pixar/WDAS isn't original due to animation? Disney is starting to get back into original movies like Wrinkle in Time, Magic Camp, and some untitled Live Action Disney films (not fairly tales, but live action).
  16. I'm assuming someone on the losing team.
  17. @Spaghetti of 1000 Planets, I'm really busy this week. I don't think I'd be able to get this weeks predictions until like Friday Night. I have some big AP exams and need to study. I'm asking you could I be exempted from this weeks challenge or be my team's guardian.
  18. WW top 10 of 2018: 1.) Jurassic World 2: $1.4B 2.) Infinity War: $1.3B 3.) Incredibles 2: $1.05B 4.) Mulan: $950M 5.) Dead2ool: $900M 6.) Han Solo: $870M 7.) Beasts 2: $850M 8.) Grinch: $750M 9.) Aquaman/Black Panther: $700M 10.) Mission Impossible 5: $650M
  19. Went up in actuals to $106M. https://www.google.com/amp/deadline.com/2017/05/guardians-of-the-galaxy-vol-2-fate-of-the-furious-baahubali-2-china-international-box-office-1202079772/amp/
  20. Due to the 6 Day, it's harder to predict. Both @DeeCee and @JJ-8 think $150M+ is possible.
  21. It's not just Avengers films being overpredicted but ensemble superhero films. BVS had predictions over $1B (some as high as $1.5B+) and finished at $870M. TBH I see Avengers as the peak for all CBMs including DCEU and XCU. The only film possible of breaking $1.5B is AIW.
