It's so cute. But this movie looks like a tearjerker. I don't know if i can handle it

[Brainbug]

The trailer for this had a hugely positive reception from the kids in my HTTYD showing yesterday.

Still $ 500M for me

 

Unlike MPR, this actually have overseas appeal.

 

$ 200M DOM + $ 300M (or a little more) OS

Not going to get my hopes too high because this is both a Disney live action remake AND a Tim Burton film, neither of which have really delivered any time this century, but this actually looks really promising. Thank god it's not just another carbon copy of the animated one at least.

Yeah, it is too soon to say, of course, but this looks like the kind of retelling of animated classics that will be different and interesting, while honoring the original.  Could be totally wrong on that, but that’s the impression the marketing has given me. Fingers crossed.

I read the novelization and the ending was really powerful. Please pull through, Tim....

Watch Big Fish. Ironically, it's got a lot of circus stuff in there as well. 

 

This could really be comparable to Cinderella at the box office (if quality is there). I was originally thinking Disney live action 2019 at the box office was going to be:

Dumbo = Cinderella

Aladdin = Jungle Book

Lion King = BatB

 

But at this point, take off 150M from Aladdin's (domestic) comp and add 100M or so to Lion King's.

I'm in love with this movie and i've not seen it yet

[CaptainJackSparrow]

Anyone else going to buy the “art of” book for this?

[Zakiyyah6]

I think this film will do 375-450mil worldwide. Don't see it breaking out.

500 M + easy. Tim's latest was bleh, but this looks so lovely in every way.
