KFP3 won't even outgross Peanuts and might only match TGD  If not for the Superbowl you'd be seeing a drop on par with Peanuts' second weekend, maybe slightly higher.

 

Unlike TGD its not going to bomb OS. This will do 550m+ WW. Plus budget wise its lower. So overall it will be profitable for DWA.

JUST SAW THE GODS OF EGYPT SPOT WHICH IS FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAT ANYTHING ELSE AND LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't expect it until 2019 at least. The Lopezes, which are the song composers for Frozen still got Disney's Gigantic next, which will be released early 2018.

 

Well Frozen is basically a cultural phenomenon. Only time will tell if the audience has been tired of it or will still be hyped come sequel release, but it's in a better position that the Kung Fu Panda series.

 

It's inevitable that Frozen 2 will experience a huge drop no matter when it's released.

 

The first one was lightning in a bottle. It won't be easy to recreate its cultural impact and popularity.

Is KFP3 even doing 20M this weekend?

Kung Flop Panda.

Damn, that's rough for KFP3. Can't imagine what would have happened if it had kept that much more competitive Xmas date. I guess DOM audiences truly never wanted any sequels to the first despite it being well liked. Just goes to show success and good reception doesn't always equal sequel demand. Of course OS has made them worthwhile for profit, but i think dwa should stop here.

 

Meanwhile, Home's random breakout becomes even more perplexing as it seems like that could have just been a fluke for dwa and they are still on the downward spiral.

I agree.

 

I wish another animated film would top Frozen, WW-wise.

Dude...you've lowballed movies like KFP3 and somehow you ended up correct. Don't do the same thing on Finding Dory, keyser.

 

You underestimate some movies just for the sake of underestimating them. That's the only thing you're good at.

 

When you mean "No way, FD tops Frozen"...it sounds like "No way any other animated film will top Frozen.

Nah, ER are in the crapper and getting worse. FD will have to substantially beat Frozen in locally currencies to beat it in dollars.

Home had Queen JLo. Everything she touches turns gold. Her show was already renewed for a 2nd season after just 5 episodes airing.

It never made sense that a good SW trilogy opener (TFA) would make less than a terrible SW trilogy opener (TPM).

 

We should've all seen 850-950 m coming.

Easy to say that now, but there were other factors to be considered like the prequels killing some interest and doubt about the quality of this film. Obviously neither ended up being a factor but you couldn't discount them at the time.
