Also, Bambi. Bambi's a good one too. Plus that movie holds the record for the longest gap between a movie's first film and its sequel.

Land Before Time
Land Before Time is one of the best "one and done" examples. There were a lot of unnecessary sequels after that.

I gotta say with Parasite, The Lighthouse, and Jojo Rabbit being out, at this point all three of those movies fall under the Needs To Go Wide Trinity

Remember how The Lion King got backlash from online? People on the internet wanted that movie to pretty much flop or bomb, say that it isn't necessary, etc etc. It made over 1B.
Same goes for Aladdin with the Will Smith backlash and Captain Marvel because of Brie Larson and her comments, both moves made over 1B. It just goes to show that the internet's opinion does not equate to the general audience.

Yeah if people are gonna completely ignore critics on Venom and look to audience scores we can't pretend that 96% isn't anything short of awesome.
Reminds me of The Goldfinch situation. Even though it bombed hard, the audience score was a lot higher compared to the critics (in te 70s). After Ansel Elgort pretty much defended the movie on his IG, saying that he was doing it for his Mom and stuff like that, the movie got positively review bombed by users. To put it shortly, the Goldfinch reviews can be summed up like this: "Don't listen to what the critics say, watch the movie and its a masterpiece." Or something along those lines.
Its the same thing with Aladdin and The Lion King this year, the critics didn't like either of those movies, but the audiences enjoyed them.

96% is not merely decent though. from 300 reviews to 1400+ reviews it hasn't budged.
Yeah, it's going to change soon. The first film ended up at 70% after 175K reviews, so it'll go down as the weeks go by.

Funny what about a half a million bucks can do
I remember during the first weekend Joker came out it was at over 200M Worldwide and I was like, "Oh, okay. Not too bad." Then I checked online during its second weekend after that and was shocked to see it make over half a billion worldwide that fast.

Correct me if I'm wrong but The Revenant is the biggest boost a movie has gotten post-awards season, correct?

with the changes RT has made even trash movies are going to have decent audience scores
Not only that, user ratings have dropped down heavily.
For example: The first Avengers movie has 1.13M user ratings, Endgame has 65K. So it's gone down since the whole Captain Marvel thing.

It won the audience award at Venice so it could play long as a crowd pleaser.
Correction: It won the audience award at TIFF, Toronto International Film Festival.
Joker, however, won the Golden Lion at Venice.

So this year has definitely had some unexpected box office results: Endgame, Aladdin, Joker, etc. . .
But here me out: What if Cats ACTUALLY surprises us all and ends up making 1B?

Not only that, she's also set to be in the Eternals, so there's that too.
I had to check and box office wise, Maleficent is her highest grossing movie. Second, third, and fourth to that is the Kung Fu Panda trilogy.

Think Maleficent's 2 admissions and gross will surpass the first?
For the first film:
-Admissions: 1.39M
-Gross: 9.13M

about 5.04m
Joker's currently at 4.30M, so it has a chance. I'm honestly surprised that the movie has ended up passing Hobbs & Shaw, Deadpool 2, AND Toy Story 4 over there.

Given that Joker held better than Venom, joker is still possible to catch Aquaman's total admission
how many admissions did Aquaman have in SK?

If it's doing over 600M overseas, then it's already a done deal to gross more than Bohemian Rhapsody worldwide.
Makes sense.
I kind of sense a Halloween boost for the movie this year. The only movies that got a boost during that season were Halloween in 2018 and Jigsaw the year before, so chances are that it might end up happening to Joker this year.
-
So, depending on how Joker does at the end of its run, if it does surpass both Deadpools (which seems to be in the high chance here), the movie could end up being, Worldwide Wise:
-The "Venom" of 2019 (856M)
-The "Batman V Superman" of 2019 (873M)
-The "Wonder Woman" of 2019 (821M)
Unfortunately, it has an unlikely chance at becoming:
-The "Bohemian Rhapsody" of 2019 (903M)
-The "Aladdin" of 2019 (1.05B)
-The "Dark Knight" of 2019 (1.005B)
Unless Joker plans on getting a re-release during awards season, chances are 50/50, but most likely not happening.

Seems to have opened OK O/S so it's not an Alice 2. It could even hit $450-500m WW which would a win for it, just not a sizable win.
Agreed. Plus, from what I've seen in the O/S threads, there are some countries where Joker is overtaking Maleficent 2.

I still can't believe that, domestic wise, it's still A24's highest grossing movie.
Worldwide though, it's Hereditary.

I do wonder how Maleficent 2 is going to do during November, seeing how Disney's streaming service, Disney+, comes out on the 12th, it either will or probably will not effect the film.

No one asked for that movie though.

Don't forget Rotten Scores too.
Jurassic World Fallen Kingdom
Aladdin (2019)
The Lion King (2019)
Batman V Superman
Suicide Squad
They all have Rotten scores from Critics but all of them had good to great legs at the box office.
