  1. Chinese audience prefer tactile, concrete, analog live-action movies. Not only animation requires more suspension of disbelief, some of the jokes in LB is just too self-aware for them to enjoy.
  2. Universal has 4 movies that earn $50M or more before F8, Mummy & Despicable Me 3. If Universal releases Jurassic World 2 this year (they have sequels of 2015's 50 Shades & Pitch Perfect this year too), they just might get close to the insane run of Year 2015
  3. $600M WW for a sequel no. 2 to series that is progressively less popular (costing less than $100M to boot) is just too much. After Deadpool and now this, I have to reconsider my initial assessment that Fox's milking of Marvel property is dead. Now can Fox do the impossible and resurrect Fantastic 4
  4. That is about what Peter Jackson's King Kong did WW in 2005
  5. BATB not interesting? Potential $400M grosser before summer season? Sure Hunger Games did it before but it is still a rarity. Winter/Spring 2017 will be one of the best ever.
  6. GO will beat Split imho It's a shame that LB will not hit $200M but JW2 may hit $100M if Lionsgate is keeping the screens. 2017 has many surprises already and Kong, BATB/LGBT, F8 will make it even more interesting. Hope the rest of the summer is more interesting than :
  7. The craftsmanship that goes into the anime, the freshness of the story - I just don't know how the live action can top that one. But judging from the bits & pieces seen in the trailer, the story seems to take a slightly different direction.
  8. Re: Kong. I would be surprised if this one opened below $40M. $50M OW is even doable. I thought JW would be good for $180M (around JPIII numbers) or maybe a low 200 figure like LW. Chris pratt is an appealing actor and a future Harrison Ford but the story is just OK and I feel that JPIII has as much good dino action if not better. Maybe the pent-up T-Rex nostalgia was severely under-estimated?
  9. Not really $80M -$85M is the good range. It could surprise into high 80 but 100 is really for the rockets
  10. More dramatically realistic SH movies, please.... Thank God, there is no city-wide destruction in this one.
