Oh and if we're doing a Planet of the Dinosaurs which dinosaur should Andy Serkis play?

EmpireCity died for Ralph Breaks the Internet. Tree died for Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. What weird films to die for.

#boycottJurassicWorld3

For sure which is why I specified OS grosses where it's been much more predictable which Superhero Films do better than others.

I'm still very curious how the inevitable Avengers 5 does if it doesn't have the original team. Marvel is in a healthy place with its solo films but we're yet to have a team up film that hasn't partially relied on RDJ. Does the Avengers films still do insane OS grosses even without RDJ?

Yeah some franchises are just more inherently limited than others with what they can do for multiple installments and still maintain the same level of interest. That being said I do think Universal will be disappointed if Fallen Kingdom doesn't reach the $150M Opening Weekend mark. The franchise might not have a huge shelf life post Jurassic World 3 which is fine not everything has to last forever (more franchises should just end IMO).

Yep Jurassic World is as dumb as I remember Still entertaining though

Oh for sure I'm just saying that whether he writes or doesn't have credit for the script the results of his films are....interesting.

He didn't write Book of Henry though

I wonder what his Episode IX would have looked liked. Since according to some "fans" he would have supposedly saved the trilogy lol

$120M would be disappointing for Fallen Kingdom. Early days of course.

After TLJ and presumably Fallen Kingdom's sub $150M Opening Weekend I think it'll make Age of Ultron's drops from Avengers look much better in hindsight.

Haven't seen Jurassic World since cinemas gonna rewatch it today. Jurassic Park also rewatched that a couple of hours ago. Quality.

Disney denies the Collider report https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Culture/multiple-films-star-wars-pipeline-sources/story?id=56057987

Wouldn't Fallen Kingdom expect to be a bit more presales heavy than Jurassic World given that it's a sequel? And I don't know the majority of users at the start of the year thought Marvel had reached its peak with The Avengers both Domestic and Worldwide.

I think the rush people talk about is going from MoS to BvS where you in BvS you have to introduce and establish a new Batman, introduce Wonder Woman, find cameos for Flash, Aquaman and Cyborg. The magic of The Avengers wasn't just 6 heroes coming together as a team for the first time, it was 4 separate franchises coming together in one big crossover. I feel people wanted Justice League to have that same magic too but WB or Snyder decided to do the opposite way which is fine but it retroactively makes JL a sequel only and not a big crossover film.

Yeah it goes without saying that Cameron is King and everyone knows it. Anyways I think it's a good thing if Lucasfilm is stopping all the spin-offs based on preexisting characters. Obi-Wan would be a good film to just get the fanbase together but I reckon it would run into the same problems Overseas as Solo did. Not looking forward to any discussion surround Rian Johnson's trilogy if that goes through. I would also think they will surely eventually do a sequel to Episode IX and that it will happen sooner rather than later especially with the Solo showing the spin-offs are not automatic box office successes. Oh and also Incredibles 2 reaffirms that Michael Giacchino with Pixar is on another level compared to his usual work in live action films.

Definitely the most entertaining film I've seen this year. Not a perfect film but as a continuation of The Incredibles story and the characters it's very very good. I'm going to love watching The Incredibles and Incredibles 2 back to back.

Finally done with all exams. Get to watch Incredibles 2 today. Not sure if this has been brought up but anyways https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/heat-vision/pete-docter-jennifer-lee-lead-pixar-disney-animation-1121432

The only fatigue I get is fatigue from people claiming or wanting superhero fatigue

Describes 90% of Illumination's films

I think it's also slightly uncertain how audiences will react to an all CGI remake. They embraced The Jungle Book but at least that had Mowgli as the "live action component". 1st trailer has to be on point with the CGI (I have no doubt the actual film will look great). And don't want to derail the thread too much but I was reading this article https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/features/he-who-not-be-named-can-john-lasseter-ever-return-disney-1105297 And yeah yikes....

Well when Pixar and Disney were looking like they were about to part ways Disney created the studio Circle 7 Animation dedicated solely to making sequels to Pixar films one of which was a Monsters Inc sequel. http://jimhillmedia.com/editor_in_chief1/b/jim_hill/archive/2011/03/07/want-a-peek-at-circle-7-s-unproduced-quot-monsters-inc-quot-sequel.aspx

The one they did for Thor: Ragnarok was hilarious
