MovieMan89 Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 I feel like there is zero buzz on this and very few are even aware of it. Though pre-release buzz isn't always a necessity for family aimed films, and this is coming out during spring break. Will probably do fine, I just feel like no one outside of film nerds like us know it exists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMP Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 Gonna be closer to Christopher Robin than Jungle Book. $40m/130m dom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteWings Posted January 26, 2019 Share Posted January 26, 2019 It looks like this might be a very lovable movie that eventually flies under the radar. But I hope I'm wrong. #believe I think they got the look right, it's beautiful. But the inner child traumatized by pink elephants tells me to stay away and save the children.

BREAKING : Disney execs asked to push elephants in canals, gutters and other such shallow water-bodies, and get locals to rescue them as part of global promotions for Dumbo. "This generates empathy for the creatures while helping our movie" one anonymous exec confided. When asked about the trauma and pain the elephant has to go through, the exec replied "Elephants, like with lobsters, don't feel pain". Dumbo releases March 29th and is expected to make a big splash. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, that OW sounds about right. It's very similar to what Cinderella got a couples years ago. I do think the legs seem pretty weak though. I feel like a 3.2 or 3.3 multiplier sounds about right 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThomasNicole Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Still thinking $ 60-65M debut for a $ 200-210M total (so, similar debut with slighty better legs compared to BOP Prediction). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems about right total wise, though legs are a bit wonky as the OW imho would be around $65M-$70M. Shazam may hurt it’s second weekend and a 3x multiple is around what Disney live action remakes (barring Jungle Book) is the normal range.

jedijake Posted February 3, 2019 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Little overlooked fact. If Dumbo DOES miss $200 million domestic as the projections suggest, it will be the SIXTH Disney Studios film to fail to reach $200 million in a row (not Pixar-but Disney Studios itself). Wrinkle In Time, Christopher Robbin, Nutcracker, Ralph2, Poppins Returns, and then Dumbo. Ralph still has a chance but I don't know if it will.

If Disney wanted to push Ralph to $200 million, it certainly could. Tangled managed to hit $200 million from even further behind. Might require some creative accounting or double features with Captain Marvel though. Estimates for this weekend: Ralph Breaks the Internet $740,000 -36% 795 -234 $931 $197,034,779 Tangled (Domestic Total Gross: $200,821,936) Feb 11–13 16 $813,849 -56.0% 784 -585 $1,038 $193,304,696 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
