This looks like a complete retread of the first film to me? New emotions kick the old ones out -> they make a mess -> old emotions find their way back -> emotions realise they have to work together is what this looks like to me. Not impressed.
Also, I still don't get where these emotions are on other people. The mom still doesn't have them even in this film. Do they just end up merging into the old ones by the end or something? There better not be some lame excuse like they disappear once people grow up or something, like adults don't feel stuff like embarassment or envy.
Probably will be gone in some part of Riley's mind where they won't make a mess and only visit the main headquarters once in a while or something like that.

Also, man's idea of an Oscar vehicle is The Greatest Showman. Love the guy, but let's be real lol
Tbh, musicals have given him his best chances for Oscars (TGS, Les mis), it's where he shines the most

Didn’t Ryan Reynolds mention that Jackman was the one who approached them about being in DP3? He’s made it no secret long before the Fox buyout that he wanted to be in the MCU.
Besides, he was in Movie 43. In terms of selling out, you can’t go any lower than that.
Half Hollywood was in that movie, so you can't blame Hugh for that

Expect to do really well with kids.
Chris Pratt factor.
Lego movie type of box-office for this. Way more Dom heavy than OS.
Yeah it's bold but just got a good feeling about this.
Garfield is a kind of a dark horse, It could ride the Mario & Barbie success wave, but those were brands that hadn't had a big film, unlike Garfield which has had quite a few.

Aaron Samuels is being played by one of the The Summer I Turned Pretty bros. I feel he's more popular among Gen Z than Diego Boneta ever was.
Angourie Rice is a great choice for Cady. She was destined to breakout after The Nice Guys but surprisingly the biggest role she got was the background Betty Brant in the MCU Spidey flicks. THIS finally might be the star-making turn for her.
Renee Rapp who plays Regina is from the Broadway play and also starred in Mindy Kaling's Sex Lives of College Girls where she was supposed to be very good. Gretchen and Karen are being played by Disney+/Hulu stars. Bebe Wood was part of the cast of Love, Victor along with Scream's Mason Gooding while Avantika was the star of the Disney+ movie Spin as well as a number of Indian films. And this is the biggest live action movie role for Moana's Auli Kraval'ho who is playing Janis.
The cast is promising as many of them are potential breakouts like McAdams, Seyfried and Caplan were when they appeared in the original film
Thanks for the info, didn't know all that.
I have never seen The summer I turned pretty or Sex Lives of College Girls, but that probably just means I'm a bit out of touch with the Z Gen 😅. I'm not accepting the Diego Boneta disrespect tho, he's been huge in LatinoAmerica lately with his Luis Miguel series. Besides, he's worked in films with stars the size of Tom Cruise, Schwarzeneger, Alec Baldwin and Milla Jokovich.
Angourice Rice's role in Spidey was so small I can barely remember her, and The Nice Guys was actually a really fun film, but it kinda feels like it's been a lifetime since it got released, her role in that film was actually good tho.
Love, Victor is one I actually watched and really liked, loved Bebe Wood's role on that show, and definetely didn't recognize her in the new Mean girls promo tho, but now that I did, I don't know, she feels weird in that role, a little off.
And yeah, McAdams, Seyfried and Caplan were just rising stars when they appeared in the original film, but LiLo carried all the star power needed for the film, and none of the new cast comes close to the star power she had back then. And I feel this time the stress power is much more needed, considering GP's reaction to what's been released so far has not been very positive, and at least someone like Olivia Rodrigo or Sadie Sink could make them curious for it.

- If they fear a musical will turn people off they should've just remade the original tbh.
- This film could've done okayish if they had cast someone with star power to boost the film and get people talking and curious if "X" celebrity will live up to Regina George's name or something. And if they had gotten at least one of the main girls from the original in some important role it would've been perfect. I mean, even the straight-to-video sequel had Diego Boneta on it.

So... Elio is being pushed back to 2025, is this getting pushed as well?

The movie musical comeback is upon us.
I don't think any other artist have the power to do something similar than Taylor did

C'mon, this is the year that proved counterprogramming works. The Taylor Swift crowd was not seeing Saw instead if Eras wasn't playing. It's October! Horror movie month!
By Halloween, everyone interested in Saw would have already seen it, basides there are already enough horror films showing, so I don't think counterprogramming would work in this case.

Leo has turned numerous tough sells into blockbusters while most stars that are considered draws are franchise driven. He doesn't have one genre (lets say action or comedy) that'a his confort zone and sure success. He opened gazillion movies that were risky or wouldn't have done so well without him. He also doesn't depend on the same look to draw audience. Unlike most gym crazu stars, he flaunts dad bod or overgrown beard and disheleved look and still has the same or bigger success. He's a brand that means stamp of quality.
As different as his films are, he does have a defining genre, most of his films fit into the historical drama category.

At least Nolan is not beholden to franchise movies. Even during his Batman trilogy days, he made Prestige and Inception. Since then he has avoided sequels even when movies are successful and most filmmakers would have made sequel to something like Inception. Also when Nolan made Bat trilogy, it was not as if SH movies dominated BO across the board. There was diversity in Top 10 that was lacking by late last decade.
When he made TDK and TDKR there were 3 superhero films in the WW Year End top 10, and guess how many superhero films are on this year's top 10? 3

Can we talk about how wronged Shutter Island was and how great it would've slayed awards season if it wasn't released the same year as Inception?

Not until Heroico next weekend. Sadly streaming has killed any chance for a resurgance of local cinema in theatres for post-pandemic era. Not only in here but most of the region overall.
It's curious how hard local cinema fell, we haven't had a local success during the COVID era, not even a streaming hit tbh. It's curious how big hits keep getting released around the world, but not from Mexico. And looking at the local films released this couple years, the quality seems to be all gone. I don't think Heroico could be the one to bring back the box office. Probably it's gonna take something controversial, like New order or Dance of the 41, which got a lot of interest, and could've been huge if released outside lockdown. Bardo had interest from the public, but was too metaphoric for the GP. Even a fan favorite like Luis Estrada flopped on streaming with his new film.

So, no local film this year to dominate the national holidays, right? Interesting...

That's pretty high expectations for Aquaman 2 considering the dumpster fire that the DC brand is right now.
Aquaman is the biggest film of the DCEU, and of course sequel it's gonna have a huge drop, but I don't think it will fall that hard considering there's not much competence for holiday season.

Well, yeah, but they still are part of a minority

Well they didn't make it after the 1994 movie. I mean not for a theatrical release.
So i Guess he was talking about ideas and quality.
The Lion King II: Simba's Pride got a wide release in Europe and Latinamerica, and was one of the most succesful straight to video sequels, so I bet Disney regreted not releasing it in theaters in the USA.

Went and saw Strays tonight and sadly got hit with my first bad audience experience I've had in years. I go every week to the movies so that's a pretty good deal to not happen for so long. Sure people will talk a bit or take out a phone once in a while but its never been anything sustained through a movie to be an annoyance to ruin the movie.
But tonight there was a group of girls in there 20s, and they were chit chatting and playing on their phones and not paying attention. They weren't being overtly loud or obnoxious so I chose to ignore it.
Unfortunately about 15 minutes in a group of guys joined them and they all got loud, obnoxious and horrible. Just completely disrespectful. It went on for about 10 minutes before I had enough and yelled at them to stfu, I paid to watch a movie not listen to them. Told them the next person I hear talking or on their phone is getting my drink on them.
They mostly shut up after, but 2 of the guys came into my row and sat near me. I figured they were gonna approach me after the movie but nothing escalated thankfully.
Didn't really get to enjoy the movie much because I let my anger get the best of me and felt like I had to be on alert in case they pressed the issue.
Did you talk to the cinema employees or something?

Haven't had the chance to watch Oppenheimer, but here goes my ranking.
1. Inception
2. Interstellar
3. TDKR
4. Memento
5. Batman Begins
6. Tenet
7. Dunkirk
8. The Dark Knight
9. The Prestige
...and even tho I liked the last two, I feel they are not that special and are highly overrated.

Oppenheimer is headed for Dunkirk numbers or above adjusted for inflation. Which is impressive because most franchises haven't been able to keep pace with inflation (counting Nolan as the franchise). Spider-Man is the only franchise off the top of my head that has been beating inflation.
Based on first week alone, Oppenheimer has done much better than Dunkirk, what surprises me is that Nolan has kept winning fans with Dunkirk and Tenet, even if those are among his "worst" received films,

Nolan has a chokehold over young millenials and older gen z, but high quality high profile military films tend to do quite well. Barbenheimer absolutely helped here as well.
I am telling everyone - Nolan + PEARL HARBOR or D-DAY = $$$$
I wonder how Dunkirk couldn't get this succesful, speacially being a more "action" film, having a member of OneDirection in the cast, and Nolan was just coming from Interstellar, instead of "Tenet" which was not greatly loved.

So... when can we expect a trailer?

So, if the strike doesn't end soon, I bet this one's moving it's date...

Can you blame the studios for wanting to cut costs?
