grim22 Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 So they'd rather open it against 3 other wide release than Ant-Man? IMAX may also be a factor, Ant-Man has IMAX on release and I think WB would want IMAX for this movie as well since Pixels or Poltergeist are definitely not going to get IMAX. I wonder how Minions will perform actually, even if it does 75% of DM2, that would be a major monster through July. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blankments Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 After seeing the trailer at Night at the Museum 3, I think this looks great, and could break out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancyarcher Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) After seeing the trailer at Night at the Museum 3, I think this looks great, and could break out If isn't wasn't being scheduled a week after a Marvel movie, then I could see it breaking out. It'll probably do well overseas though. Edited December 21, 2014 by Saintarcher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being scheduled after a Marvel movie didn't hurt TMNT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fancyarcher Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 (edited) Being scheduled after a Marvel movie didn't hurt TMNT. But Peter Pan is not as popular a brand as TMNT is. Edited December 21, 2014 by Saintarcher 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 But Peter Pan is not as popular a brand as TMNT is. In that case it should be even less of an obstacle. Film like this is more reliant on word-of-mouth than pre-release hype. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, depends on the reception, obviously. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blankments Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 "I don't believe in Bedtime Stories", God that was cheesy. This doesn't seem like something that would come out in summer, maybe November. Either way, I don't see it passing $450m WW. This is a good point; if Star Wars wasn't coming out next year, this could've been the family event of Christmas. Heck, it would've probably been nice to have this year; looks better than Annie and NATM for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 And the Lego Movie could've been a summer release. If it's quality, it'll find an audience. Though I'm allergic to Joe Wright. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethan Hunt Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL Its highly possible, Ant-Man about 150M and Pan about 170M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJG Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 Its highly possible, Ant-Man about 150M and Pan about 170M. 1) AntMan gross is too low, especially for a movie that's probably gonna find a way to link itself to Avengers 2 as well as advertise that link to no end 2) it's just not gonna happen.
