So when do you think Disney will announce animated films will get the live-action remakes first? It is so frustrating to keep hoping for Mulan and Sword in the Stone and be pretty certain that the Cruella prequel and Dumbo are the ones we will get.

 

Mulan is in production I thought.

The Boss:

 

Remainder of this week: 3M (43.4M total)

Apr 22: 4.6M (1.5M weekdays, 49.5M total)

Apr 29: 2.2M (700k weekdays, 52.4M Total)

May 6: 1.2M (400k weekdays, 54M total)

 

When all is said and done it should make a little under 60M giving it a 2.5 multi. When you consider the reviews it isn't bad, but when you consider McCarthy's track record it's weak. This doesn't bode well for Ghostbusters past the first weekend if reviews are on the level of The Boss.

Extremely OT, but I came across this when I was looking at Buena Vista's top grossing films.

 

Remember when Wild Hogs made $168M domestic ($212M adjusted!)?

BVS run:

Apr 29: 1.7M (500k weekdays, 322.4M 321.4 total)

Not seeing a scenario where it makes over 327-328M

FTFY

I'm over 300% so I'll be missing out on Neighbors 2 and Angry Birds.

 

But at least I'll get an extra 2 million from Hardcore Henry. 

I am gonna miss out on Neighbors as well and I didn't even invest in Jungle Book

 

[MrFanaticGuy34]

For those who have seen Jon Favreau's TJB.....wonder what the sequel will be about?

 

Maybe Bagheera & Baloo brings Mowgli to the man-village in the next one. That would be interesting, wouldn't it?

One moment in time. If they made the same exact movie with the same cast today given where their careers currently stand, it wouldn't even make $20M in total.

Krissykins might be expecting to find material for 5-year olds in Zootopia.

Was bashed on RT. Another critic proof comedy. I thought it was silly but it must have struck a chord with middle aged men going through manapause.

True story, my sister and brother-in-law picked Wild Hogs for their big anniversary date night one year...I was thinking, "Really?!" on the inside for a dozen different reasons (you have the rare child-free night to celebrate your years of wedded bliss and you pick that???), but wished them well and played the dutiful babysitter. 

 

So many $300M+ movies already, you wonder what will flop down the road to make up for it...

Is that the John Travolta movie about Family Men riding Motorcycles?

They recently announced Peter Pan

 

Disney has announce about half of its animated library already, including the films I mentioned. But none of them including Peter Pan has a release date.

Why not? Furious 7 dropped 62.7% on its fifth weekend, and BvS has been consistently underperforming it. It's entirely possible that today is the last day that BvS makes over a million.

Huntsman, Alice, Now You See Me 2, Warcraft, Tarzan and Ice Age all in the next few months.  I think X-Men and Star Trek will disappoint as well.
