I was correct about "Alice" and will be about "Dory" as well. Disney saturated the market this spring/summer with family films, good ones in Zoo and TJB, and the fatigue has set in.

Mojoguy Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 DORY is singlehandily saving this crap summer. CW did good, but its 2.2 multiplier sucked balls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's what this thread is about then I didn't read carefully enough before posting. I think Dory will be a relative disappointment: Right around $200m DOM. By what most are predicting, that would qualify as a "flop" for it. 10-day mark: $287 DOM. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniNate Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 (edited) See, what he really meant was he thought Dory was going to be "da bomb"! God, I can't believe I'm stealing a joke from Cars 2 Edited June 26, 2016 by tribefan695 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenstate5 Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 I just can't get over that he picked one of the rare movies this summer that WON'T flop. Seriously everything else is ripe for the picking. Amazing. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveJaros Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 (edited) No question, I was way off about Dory. Clearly underestimated the enduring appeal of the Nemo brand. It's instructive to contrast Dory with "Greek Wedding 2". Both were sequels to huge smash hits 13-14 years ago. Sure, Universal probably made money off "Greek 2" this year because of a low budget, but it was nothing at the box office compared to the original. The original just didn't resonate across the years the way Nemo obviously has, thus setting Dory up for this explosion.

Popstar: Never Stop Stopping Warcraft The Legend of Tarzan Ben-Hur Mechanic: Resurrection I don't know what War Dogs, Spectral, Free State of Jones, The Infiltrator, Nine Lives, Kubo and the Two Strings, Hands of Stone are. Of the 14 films going wide in August, I think only 5 will make over $20M total. Well I'm doing well so far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That One Girl Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 THE BOMBS: The Nice Guys Alice 2 Popstar TMNT 2 Free State of Jones Resurgence The Neon Demon I left out Warcraft since it's making enough money overseas to not be a flop. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenstate5 Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Depending on how hard IDR drops next weekend, we may have to include that too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cookie Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 Who would've thought a year ago that: TMNT2 would make less than half of the first film? Alice 2 would make less than a fourth of its predecessor? Warcraft would be massive overseas but an all-time bomb in the states? IDR would open to less than the original's 3-day without adjusting for any inflation? And the summer isn't even half over yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like with the Good Dinosaur last winter, Disney is getting a PR pass on it because it has so many hits out. But it's not getting a financial pass, those are big $$$ Alice has cost it.
