On these forums, it's Jurassic World.

It's also the best

 

Rth on Friday was last year's best forum moment.

[MCKillswitch123]

How does it compare to Rth dropping the Deadpool Friday bombshell?

I think you're way over estimating Storks and under estimating Sing and Angry Birds.

Storks can be a HT sized hit given how barren the market is. Sing will be Hop 2.0 and Angry Birds seems too late.

I just read an interview with Shailene Woodley from a few days ago where she said that she and the rest of the cast were specifically told not to read the Allegiant book due to spoilers.

 

That's really strange.

Indeed. I would think they'd be warned not to read that book due to the surgeon general's warning. CAUTION: THIS BOOK WILL BREAK YOUR BRAIN.

Y'all are really bullish on Sing for some reason. In order for it to break out, it needs to stop looking like shit.

 

As yet, Illumination hasn't shown it can sell anything that doesn't involve the Minions.

Does The Lorax count?

I wouldn't. The association is with Dr. Seuss there, not the studio.

The animation is so poor. The jokes are so stale. Pets also looks horrendous. No idea why people are so hyped about it. 

 

For me, Kubo and Moana are the ones left with any quality or integrity behind them. Dory and Stanton are a joke. Ice Age should've ended years ago. Storks looks a far cry from the days of Cloudy and Surf's Up.

To be fair, I'm not sure Hop should count as much on their record, considering that most of it is live-action.

 

And if Sing makes a tidy profit, it wouldn't be the first time a presumably bad movie made money.

Uh, Storks is Warner Bros, and those other two movies are from Sony.

Hell a lot of us here think the Despicable Me movies are crap.

Really? I think they're OK.

Minions sucks balls, though.
