There's a few problems with IO, not the least of which is Disney made it already and called it Cranium Command. Beyond that, it was heavy on the creativity but lacking in the pathos. Joy and Sadness were limited by their functional roles and I didn't think ever transcended that. So I was left at arm's length beyond the imaginary friend, one unconstrained.

 

It was a brainy animated film though, and I appreciated it on those merits.

 

This is like complaining your hot, young brazillian girlfriend doesn't have a third breast.

 

Inside Out is a masterpiece compared to 99% of kid's movies.

 

What movie speaks the unspoken truths of growing up better than Inside Out.

 

Maybe it will be underappreciated like another brutally honest film about the human condition, Artificial Intelligence.

Sorry, but I just couldn't help myself.

Really surprised by that Conjuring drop. Sure it's a horror sequel but everyone I talk to that has seen it say it's either as good as or better than the first.

Could be going for a Revenant type release?

Thats what I think as well.

most likely an A

That drop is surprising for TC2 in spite of  the kind of movie it is. It seems like WOM is irrelevant this summer, movies just aren't having good legs. Really hope Dory bucks that trend. 

[John Marston]

horror sequels always have bad legs. I can't think of a single one that had good legs

Fathers' Day hold will benefit it

I think Civil War will go up. It could increase on Sunday like Ultron did

Well, it didn't have huge theater drop, it wasn't the second w/e and it wasn't a family film.  I'm still surprise Conjuring and NYSM didn't hold a bit better though.

 

I can't believe Alice out of the top 10.  I thought it would it would benefit some from the drive in double features with Dory.

Lol I had like 13 drinks at a party .............

What the fuck your talking about Willis? I really don't think you have a clue what're talking about.

[Johnny Tran]

Excellent number but I have this feeling like this could be The Force Awakens all over again.  I loved the experience and to be there opening night in a packed theater with people dressed up and going nuts.  But then I watched it again and it hit me... 

 

"That's all?"

 

Yes,  I feel like it won't live up to that 94% RT.  Still going to check it out, I'm just not hyped for it.

[Lordmandeep]

I actually found SW7 better the second time.
