DMan7 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 The RT for this might end up in rotten. Should be an interesting RT watch for this movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Marston Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 a lot of people like the first Cars, so saying it is the best of the series is a big selling point for some Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojoguy Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Cars 2 and Cars 3 only exist to sell merchandise. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a2k Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 As someone who loved Cars1, what was expected from Cars3 was that it will better than Cars2 but not as good as Cars1. Cars1 did 4x+ in a different BO era. Cars2 did 2.9x Factoring in -further sequelitis -June Thu previews -Father's Day Sunday inflating the ow -DM3 not far away on one hand, but better wom (assumption) than Cars2 on the other hand...the expected multiplier imo is 2.7-3.1x 50-55 ow / 2.7-3.1x / 135-170 ... wide range 52.5 ow / 2.9x / 152 in the middle. Considering you got to pay for the bad reception of Cars2, and keeping in mind the drop from 240 to 160 for POTC, a drop 190 to 160 for Cars would not be bad. sub-150 will be disappointing. 160-170 will be good. 180+ great imo.

MovieMan89 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Ugh, as we all suspected looks like this is indeed Cars 2 all over again; just another merch cash grab. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's certainly not because Cars 2 was so profitable at the box office or because anyone asked for another. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cochofles Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 It doesn't really bother me that this is a so-called cash-grab. Plenty of modern summer blockbusters (particularly CBMs) tend to be 2-hour adverts for merchandising, but the reality is that you can be an advert for toys and still be a compelling, entertaining, fun film. Being a cash-grab doesn't necessarily mean that a film will be unwatchable. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean....just because a blockbuster is a cash-grab....doesn't necessarily mean it's/or will be automatically bad. There's always gonna be some big money-magnets in a specific season, whenever it's in the summer, winter, spring or fall. Heck, there are movies/cash-grabs that are beloved & well-received. 5 of Disney's biggest films from last year are well-received. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 "Cash grab" in relation to the Cars movies has always just been an easy label, implying that Pixar would somehow make absolutely perfect films if they weren't motivated by money at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keysersoze123 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Cash grab I would say are movies with poor reputation and still getting sequel bcos the merchandise is popular. Otherwise there is no reason why we have had 2 cars sequels while incredibles has to wait 14 years for a sequel. I would rather Pixar make a Up or Ratatouille sequel than this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 It got thrown around quite a bit for Finding Dory, too, and I imagine we'll be hearing it a ton for Toy Story 4. "Cash grab" only seems to apply to making sequels you don't like the idea of. If everyone's hyped for a sequel it ironically isn't considered a "cash grab". 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomCat Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 I'm shocked and beside myself a movie was made to make money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjones1325 Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Last month I had to go to promote this movie by going to an event in NYC and typing about it in order for Disney to give me a press screening. Of course they did and now Well, the time has finally come. Cars 3 is finally here, and honestly, I’ve have NOT been looking forward to it one bit. The teaser was effective, but every trailer afterward had me lose interest. On the one hand you have a Pixar movie, and on the other hand, we have a Cars sequel. After watching both films this weekend (which you can read my REvisit here), I was hesitant walking into this unbiased. Will this be another rough patch in Pixar’s road or will this be the best Cars film yet? https://rendyreviews.com/movies//cars-3-review 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
