grim22 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Alice in Wonderland is underrated in regards to the giant trend it has spawned, its 1 B ww gross has made producers crazy. Most of these stories are in public domain, that s why we have two movies with the same subject for example. Blame Alice for this new trend which is almost as big as the superhero trend. Old tales everybody knows of that will have their CGI heavy version, blame Depp, Wasikoswska and Burton. AiW and Clash of The Titans were the first movies in 3D after Avatar made 3D the new "in" thing. Both of them benefited immensely from that, a similar thing happened with HTTYD as well. Alice had the added advantage of Depp's star power back in 2010 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 This needs to move to the holidays somehow So it can get destroyed by Bond, Hunger Games, Pixar, and Star Wars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Futurist Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 (edited) AiW and Clash of The Titans were the first movies in 3D after Avatar made 3D the new "in" thing. Both of them benefited immensely from that, a similar thing happened with HTTYD as well. Alice had the added advantage of Depp's star power back in 2010 as well. Those facts don 't change the influence Alice had on producers deciding to do retelling with CGI old fairy tales everybody know. Alice was the blueprint and you when list the movies in that vein, it s mindboggling. Edited November 26, 2014 by The Futurist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inuyugi Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Definetly doesn't look like a summer movie, it could be more suited to the Holiday season anyway the release date for this movie suck it opens a week after Minions and on the same weekend as Ant-Man, and if Pixels it's actually decent or atleast well market could be a decent hit (but since Adam Sandler doesn't have the same B.O. power as he did before, it could bomb.), so this movie might actually fail to register. The kid seems like a breakout star to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xSabrinax Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I really like the 2003 version with Jeremy Sumpter (my first platonic love), and Jason Issacs. I don't know what to think about this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrath Posted November 27, 2014 Share Posted November 27, 2014 Just saw trailer before Penguins and it looked good. Agree that this seems more like a hoiday movie than a summer movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 PAN moves from 7/17/15 to 7/24. The P's have it--Warner's adaptation joins PIXELS and POLTERGEIST. — Exhibitor Relations (@ERCboxoffice) December 10, 2014 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 ^ I think Pan moving a week later may mean that WB's Point Break remake may finally be dead. They had that scheduled to release on 7/31 but I don't think they are crazy enough to release 2 movies basically having the same target audience in 2 consecutive weeks.

Chewy Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 So they'd rather open it against 3 other wide release than Ant-Man? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
