I wouldn't expect more than $10 mil for any of them, performance of last Nightmare release seems like best-case scenario. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in between the first Cars and like 2011 merch made something nuts like 10 billion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't think anyone's expecting serious numbers. Theyve been out for years, especially by then. It's basically just so that people who always wanted to see it in theaters specifically get appeased (cough including making Pixar staff happy cough) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovieMan89 Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Cars 4 would be believable to me though since I don’t think they know what to do for getting boys to buy their merch. They could make appealing new IPs, what an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could make appealing new IPs, what an idea. It should be pointed out that six of Pixar's last eight movies produced or officially dated have been original. They have largely held up their promise to produce more original movies, so I don't think the sarcasm here is warranted. I do think another Cars movie is not a good idea and would be disappointed if they decided to throw years of labor and hundreds of millions of dollars into that, but they have been dealt a bad hand the last few years and yes, they did have one big misfire, so I think a certain degree of franchise mining is understandable in the circumstances. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpiderByte Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 I think it's far more likely to be shorts or a series than Cars 4. Could also be a regular animated series, like the Moana and Tiana ones that have been in development since basically the service was announced Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted December 29, 2023 Share Posted December 29, 2023 Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's just D+ content. That's where they can indulge in it with the best ROI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannastop Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 I know people are dumping on Disney's WDAS for the bombs they made but I think there's some talent there. I'm curious about Zootopia 2. Also I think that they have great artists there like Fawn Veerasunthorn or Josie Trinidad who could make something outside of the Jennifer Lee mold.

Not optimistic about Fawn's future with the company tbh. Buck and Lee have Frozen to their credit as a safety net and she doesn't, so she seems like the fall guy for Wish. Think she might be a good creative pickup for Matt Braly's movie with Sony though. Edited December 30, 2023 by AniNate 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
