  1. Considering I was on the opening day ops team for Pandora at DAK, I’m going with yes to being aware of it. Fantastic land, one of the only times modern Disney execs didn’t budget cut WDI (Cameron’s power likely had a lot to do with that). The attention to detail did WAY bigger things for the park and IP than Galaxy’s edge ever has for Studios and SW.
  2. Leaving this here as well (and no I won’t be responding to quotes due to moderation), but just since some want to act as though Nintendo’s modern kid appeal problem is some false narrative. The receipts from Nintendo’s data themselves: And yes, date showed Mario movie was very big with kids, again did a TON for Nintendo there. Stop making an argument with me I’m not making in the first place.
  3. Nah, there’s no pop culture footprint there like your Star Wars, potters, marvel, etc etc etc. Anyone who says otherwise needs to find the huge merch, spin off, multimedia, extended universe, cosplay, and conventions that don’t exist for Avatar or call it a day trying to keep this pointless argument up. It’s beyond tired. They are movies people tune in for, not pop culture things. And I’m the one who called A2 being a box office juggernaut when very few here did that first week of release, so I hardly need to be reminded about success metrics.
  4. So have we talked about how freakin massive Shrek 5 would be if kfp4 managed this? Because damn, that might just be Hollywoods current biggest goldmine right there
  5. ??? I literally said kids loved the Mario movie. As for before that? Yeah, Nintendo had plenty of data showing their target audience was skewing more and more adult and the number of under 18 demo of Switch owners is incredibly small given the massive 140m install base
  6. Avatar IS culturally irrelevant. People are highly interested in experiencing those movies on the biggest screen possible though. Big difference. Kid interest in Nintendo branded stuff has been a sore spot for them in recent years, but I will say the Mario movie made huge strides for them in that respect and kids definitely got on board.
  7. I said then and will say now KFP2s performance at the time was completely shocking. There was really no reason for it not to be huge, and now it’s more true than ever now that we know obviously the target kid audience of those first two look back on it very fondly.
  8. No way I can see this failing now with those reviews, Gosling is way too hot right now. Pg-13 will help it hit 4 quad too. This could be huge honestly, especially in a sea of sequels for the rest of the summer.
  9. A movie has truly never deserved that vfx award more if that’s what they spent
  10. Probably more like known for not paying their actors who haven’t produced a hit in 10 years $20 mil a pop…
  11. How??? And what is Hollywood even doing then? Then can’t make a so called “indie” for $10mil…
  12. All that matters is above demon slayer, which should be feasible. The OG Pokemon is an untouchable cultural moment for anime in the west that nothing else should be compared to, therefore I’d consider 2nd place to basically be the new anime dom record/benchmark.
  13. Saw the budget sourced at $10-12 mil on its Wikipedia… that’s just can’t be accurate right? If so, Hollywood seriously needs to stop everything and completely reevaluate how they spend on big budget movies
  14. Ok but come on the song isn’t THAT great. It’s supposed to be about the song, not the acting/performing of the song
