Hopefully, they'll announce the short that plays before the movie.

Lack of marketing is THE most telling sign. Radio silence from Illumination regarding this movie. I'd almost expect it to move at this point.
But where would it move to?

surprised Universal hasn't started marketing. Wonder if it has to do with the low gross of The Secret Life of Pets 2. Maybe Illumination is worried that they are overplaying their hand with marketing.
I'm betting that's exactly why they're being a bit more gun shy this time around.

Begins with 69% (nice) on RT with 13 reviews. Leave it to Guy Ritchie to give Professor McConaughey his first fresh RT score live-action movie since Interstellar lol.
Let the second McConaissance begin!

Domestically, DM3 dropped from DM2's $368 million to $265 million. That's a drop of 28%, which if applied to Minions ($336 million DOM) would lead to $242 million for the sequel.
Or if you want to consider them all related films, DM3 dropped 21% from Minions. Same drop applied to Minions 2 from DM3 would lead to $209 million DOM.
Both seem likely for Minions 2.

The question I have is this: How much of a drop off from the first Minions this will have?
-
I say with a couple factors in mind:
1. Inside Out beat Minions at the domestic box office back in 2015, even amidst competition Jurassic World. So I can see a repeat of that here.
2. I think that the franchise's popularity peaked with the first Minions and Despicable Me 3. The underperformance of SLOP 2 gives me reason to believe that internet won't be as strong.

Even though I think this will drop big, the franchise is still huge.
My 4 years old daughter asked me when this is gonna get released and said she can't wait for it.
For sure. It will still pull in big numbers, but it won't be as big of a hit as the first Minions.
Moreover, I predict that Soul will make more domestically.

I truly hope that's not the case. Those shorts are every bit a highlight as the movies they play before.
