It's Disney. Do not doubt The Mouse.

Disney always give the Thanksgiving animated movies recently the shorter end of the marketing stick. Look at TGD and TFA and Moana with Strange and R1.

Ninjago estimated 5.8M on Friday...even lower than Deadline 6.1M

Same as Storks (5.77 od, 21.3 ow). Which I would assume was less front-loaded as it was not part of any franchise.

By any chance, is Tele Jr. making you watch the series on Netflix?

Tele Jr only watches quality like Lab Rats.

So yeah Fox's year has been fairly disappointing. There is Logan and then?

And Frozen with Thor: TDW.... while Catching Fire played.

 

Moana made $248m.  It did more than fine - and more than Dr Strange and Fantastic Beatss.  Also better than the two early November Disney films before it Wreck It Wralph and Big Hero 6

@Squadron Leader Tele I haven't heard a good hot Tele take in a while.

 

What recent 2017 movies have you seen?

 

BREAKER MORANT is great.

No, he's not really into Ninjago for whatever reason.

Hopefully we get less worrying now about Coco disappointing when it's gonna be the first really major animated movie since the summer.

Or it just continues the trend...mediocre to bad lazy single-quadrant skewing animated movie that gets ignored in favor of much better made, more popular 4 quadrant live-action supers movies (or whatever is on tv today:)...

As a matter of fact, he was just watching this yesterday.

Moana made $245m.  It did more than fine - and more than Dr Strange.

Frozen didn't have a main series Star Wars movie to worry about. Moana had more hype and The Rock was a huge draw. Thor3 and JL should be bigger hits than Strange and Beasts and the 2013 combo of TDW and CF.

Kingsman didn't have a hook and poor reviews, it's lucky it's having a so-so opening.

Boss Baby.  Apes is doing well in China and should make a profit for them.  Captain Underpants has a small budget and high returns.  Kingsman has a small enough budget that it should be in the clear also.  Hidden Figures made a majority of its money this year.  Covenant should break even with HV sales.

 

Their only real failures are Snatched (which had a pretty small budget anyway), Long Haul (again, small budget and could break even with HV), and A Cure for Wellness (small budget too).

[filmlover]

Kingsman looks to do high-$30M en route to a $95-100M total. Honestly not that bad considering how far so many sequels have fallen from their predecessors the past 2-3 years.

[a2k]

Kingsman2 needs a 25-30% Sat bump from true Friday to have a shot at 40+ ow.

 

3.4 + 11.925 + 15.3 (+28.3%) + 9.5 (-38%) = 40.125

Apes and Kingsman are disappointments, I never called them flops but they are putting up disappointing numbers. Boss Baby did break out but not Captain Underpants. It's gross is fine for it's budget but nothing to crow about.

Boss Baby

 

Hidden Figures while released limited in December played wide to great results in 2017.

 

Kingsman I guess is disappointing in that it could have made more but it could still do $400m ww on a $103 budget which is quite good.

 

Fox Searchlight did well with Gifted and looks to do well with Battle of The Sexes, Three Billboards and The Shape of Water
