BEAUTY AND THE BEAST WEEKEND THREAD | Late Sunday Numbers (Asgard) - 48-49M | Official Weekend Estimate: 170M; OS OW: 180M; WW OW: 350M

Pete's Dragon is a weird movie for me, they could've left the dragon out, and I would've not noticed at all.

I think DHD is being conservative.  Look at what THR reported.  They make it seem like 60M is the minimum it can do.

 

"Disney's live-action musical Beauty and the Beast is doing monstrous business at the North American box office, where it should waltz past $60 million on Friday alone for a possible opening of $165 million-$170 million, according to early Friday returns."

They had plans for one several years ago. It was going to be called Snow White and the Seven, and the dwarfs would have been martial arts monks.

 

Development stalled and I think they killed it when SWATH and Mirror, Mirror moved forward. They'll probably continue to look into it, but perhaps not for several years.

 

What if they pull a Maleficent and have it be called Dwarfs.  That would be "amazing."

Why is that allowed? As a finance guy...that should be a big no no...

 

I'm sure someone can get more specific -- what I remember Rth and EmpireCity saying is that for double-features, both movies are credited with the gross.

Actually, Disney has two Snow White movies. One that's actually the orignal movie, and one based on Snow White's supposed long-lost cousin or sister called Rose Red...blurgh.

How much until we have something better than those shitty DHD numbers?

[commonsense88]

They are starting to add 11 pm show times

[Jayhawk the Hutt]

Still need to remake Bambi and Lady and the Tramp. Could throw in another remake of 101 Dalmatians. Another one could be The Rescuers, that could actually be fun.

[MJL]

Talking about live action adaptations, Disney would be a fool not to do a live action Fantasia immediately after Marijuana is legalized in all 50 states.  300M OW guaranteed!!!!!  ?

[franfar]

They're making live action Dumbo, right?
