To me it's not really about toy story being down. It's about the entire box office quarter will be down alot because of toy story not making enough money lol. Quarter was already going to be down and now it will be down more than 5% compared to last year. And that's just bad for theater industry. Especially after the first quarter being a disaster for them.

Weekend Prediction thread 5/3-5/5 Play the Derby

Several factors because it's not a new thing anymore, because of competition and parents are planning to take their kids to watch Toy Story 4. Parents only have so much budget especially going in as a family they have to buy multiple tickets. -
Weekend Prediction thread 5/3-5/5 Play the Derby

Pets 2 53 Million Dark Phoenix 50 million -
If I was comparing them 1 : 1 I would say Aladdin would do 5.97x opening weekend like Frozen. But like you pointed out this isn't the holiday season and other factors of open runway like frozen had. I'm saying aladdin will do 300+ which is only 3.27x opening weekend.

I think aladdin will keep surprising people. But it will mostly be leggy. I think it should do around 45 to 50 million this weekend. At the same time I believe Aladdin will run kinda like Frozen. Frozen only had a opening weekend of 67 million and went on to make 400 million on the box office haha. I think aladdin will easily make 300 million.

This is what I was trying to convey in the weekend thread. But no one gets it. Its so clear because so many of the critics wrote about the same negative things people were talking about after the trailers came out. They literally focused on those negatives. But on the contrary those aren't even negatives in the movie. Like Will smith is not bad as Genie, on the contrary he's superb and one of the positives of the movie. So how come the critics after watching the movie are saying that he's bad/ or a negative for the movie. Its so clear they were trying to mimic the audience opinion/sentiment that people had after watching the trailers.

Basically what I'm trying to point out is there are number of critics now who plan their write-ups/reviews based on the public sentiment. For me it has nothing to do with Disney but the public sentiment. Like for example End Game is 97% on rotten lol and now this Aladdin 58%. Just pointing out a trend I noticed of following public opinion/sentiment.

Those are your words. I never brought in Disney to the mix. Just said that some critics were biased based on the fact on how the audience reaction was after the trailers. Is it just a co-incidence that the audience reaction was Will smith looks bad as genie after the trailers and that's what some of the critics stated in their reviews? I mean anyone after watching the movie says will smith didn't do a good job as ginie or didn't fit in hasn't watched the movie.

Did it still doesn't make any sense. Like I said before they were going with the flow of people's reaction to the trailers instead of actually doing their job and writing an unbiased review. Some of the reviews:----> "Smith understandably didn't want to compete with Williams, but as the big, blue, top-knotted Genie, he's uncharacteristically bland. Even the magic carpet in this movie looks bummed out" " Disney needs three wishes for its live-action "Aladdin" remake: for a better Genie, a better script and a soul." "After what we've seen and heard from the late, great Robin Williams, Will Smith's act -- even with some special effects -- wears thin rather quickly."
