i can understand Snow White decline. SW never had sequel potential they defeated the evil queen. Stewart was not there anymore. It was a completely different story. Daddy's Home never really screamed for a sequel neither did Neighbors or Jack Reacher. I believe Alice 2 was another movie that came out to late after the first one. Audience did not really like Turtles 1 and neither did critics could be a huge factor for declines.

So true they have finally found a good Lara Croft and Vikander definitely expressed returning as Lara and i think Daniel Wu and Nick Frost will return as well. Its also the best reviewed video game movie and best reviewed TR movie by far. Jolie's was trashed. This one is liked. It has so much going for it getting a franchise started here.

Can you name a movie that set everything up for a franchise that made practically 3x its budget that didn't get a sequel ? America is not the world and yeah it could do better in another release window. Vikander is staying for sure she was the core thing that was praised about this movie. Suddenly changing her would be right back to square one and a serious gamble not worth taking with the first practically making 3x its budget.

yeah its all being set up. Its funny seeing these haters use PR as an excuse for the sequel to do bad. When PR cost way more it barely made 2x budget and it was a closed movie and they lost core cast and their critically praised director as well. TR is cheaper and its on 2.80x budget now plus its set up to more adventures and Vikander is not leaving. The sequel could definitely do better in a different release window and budget a little over 80-85 million too.

It is and we are getting a sequel. A movie with now on 2.8x budget is a win to any studio its not like its made all its money in China either like some Warcraft or something like that. It will launch a franchise. Pretty much all agree that Vkander is fantastic and the only problem is the story for some. That they can make better in a follow up too. They can release it in the summer or December where movies have more legs because of the holidays. The sequel can cost 80-85 million thats a decent budget for an adventure action flick.

But they can’t compete with them because of all their established franchises. I see something very wrong with this. Also how are Disney gonna manage all these movies in the theaters when they as you say will still release FOX movies too on top of all these franchises Lucasfilm, MCU, Pixar soon Avatar, x-men, Alien ect. Are they gonna open these movies in the same week or a week after which will then practically cannibalize their own movies.
