Hopefully Kubo mini breaks out and does 20m+. Marketing has been action packed and attached to every animated film for months, so if any stop motion film is gonna do above the norm, this is it.
-
At least they beat the sausages.
-
Haha, I totally don't remember the re-shoots thing and famous line being put in because fans had made it up on the internet.
-
Didn't a lot of the hype center around the Youtube trailer views? Nevermind the fact that YT was in its infancy and the trailer probably only had like 1m views.
-
Kinda random, but anyone remember when Snakes on a Plane was supposed to be "huge" because of the internet hype? You know, back when MySpace was still like the only form of social media.
-
Hahahahaha, I legit wasn't even thinking of SP as animation when I typed that. Still think WOM could be an irrelevant case for it though if it can't appeal outside of a niche audience. Think Kick Ass, but with a higher OW. We'll see.
-
We're living in a summer where the 3x multi has literally become a very exclusive club reserve for only the best WOM though. Nothing outside of well received animation can be assumed as having a 3x multi right now.
-
Lmao at the blurb of the one rotten review: "I'm not inclined to give a pass to a family film that indoctrinates an irrational belief system just because it's novel." What?
-
So about that great WOM I was hoping for for Pete's Dragon: yeah I dunno about that now. The movie is very subdued and slow paced and I don't think I can see today's ADD gen of kids going for it at all. Especially after the flat out rejection of BFG earlier this summer, which may as well be The Secret Life of Pets compared to PD in terms of pacing. Haven't been in a more restless theater in ages than my screening of PD. I swear, all the kids in the theater were squirming and chattering for 80% of it.
-
Though SP's holds this weekend are similar to BM's OW, which is on its way to a whopping 4x+ multi, so who knows about the multi right now.
-
I'd say 90m for SP. That's also what it would need to beat South Park adjusted.
-
Perhaps Rth will use them in his hints for the SP #.
-
It's certainly possible it misses, but highly unlikely it misses 250. So 300 doesn't seem like a huge stretch.
-
DM2 has been my target ever since this past weekend and now I'm definitely convinced it can do it. Will be a mere 2m behind after this weekend with a 6th weekend nearly twice as much as DM2's.
-
Holy shit at SLOP! That thing has turned into a WOM machine. 400 woulda been possible if that second weekend drop had been a little softer.
-
I mean considering we have its MCU counterpart released the same date 2 years ago, we have a pretty good idea how it would play if well liked.
-
I count 13.5 million individual pink fabric fibers, so 13.5m for SP?
-
We had good cause to always assume the movie wasn't clearing 50m though, based on historical patterns for films with such huge OD frontloading and even a (very loose) range already given.
-
Well, it had some mighty fine scenes at least.
-
So the story is told through flashback as she remembers her life in her dying moments then?
-
What if Nolan did the next Disney princess movie? Would she survive the runtime?
-
Lmao, look what Rth has us resorting to with these "hints."
-
Rebecca Black's Friday should suffice, since it will match the quality of the film it's promoting and the first Friday is the only day anyone will see it.
-
Hopefully people were aware WOM was poor. If not: HERE IS YOUR BELATED NOTICE THAT WOM FOR APOCALYPSE WAS POOR EVERYONE.
-
Oh contraire mon Tele, some were indeed trying to argue SS's performance is "normal" for that kind of movie and not indicative of bad WOM. At least before that Friday #. Would like to see the argument for that now.
