I don't see why Captain Underpants deserves more credit? It's gross is less than the Emoji movie. And didn't Kung Fu Panda 3 under perform?

I don't think Lord and Miller were that involved with Ninjago.

They produced.

RUN AWAY WHILE YOU CAN

[WrathOfHan]

Seeing AA and Ninjago in back to back days was a double dosage of shit, and the second film was somehow worse. Both are in my bottom 10 of the year right now, but who knows if they'll remain there. For all the great movies released this year, 2017 has had some shitty films!

DW...not exclusively CU.

 

Also CU had a 38m prod budget and KFP3 did 521m globally on a 145m budget. While the other 3 are more clear cut successes. There is a lot of gloom about DW which I think doesn't make sense looking at their last 5 movies.

[Jonwo]

Although Kingsman didn't quite crack $40m, it still managed to be the fifth highest September opening and Sweet Home Alabama is now no longer in the top 5 after 15 years. 

 

 

[Johnny Tran]

I don't see IT dropping 44% today.  I think it lands comfortably above $30M

DWA had an awful 2013 and 2014 wasn't great either but they managed to recover somewhat in the last few years. Sony Pictures Animation is going to finish 2017 is no films that grossed over $100m domestically, for an animation studio that's not good.

They made the Captain Underpants movie a decade too late.  It would have made a lot more if made closer to the height of the book's popularity.

See Kingsman because it's really good and will wash the bad taste of those movies out of your mouth

I'm fully bracing for a bottom 10 film there too.

Artemis Fowl looks like the next "too late to cinemas" franchise.

Did you not like the first one?

[Jonwo]

In regards to KFP3, had China not been so huge, it would done dropped a lot more as it underperformed in most markets. I suspect DWA thought KFP3 would be a billion dollar grosser.

No I like the first one a lot, but you're the only person I've seen who's outright raving it; pretty much everyone else is meh on it.

[Jonwo]

I think a third Kingsman film is dependent on OS. If it sees a decent increase to make up for a drop in the domestic market then Fox probably do another film with or without Vaughn

[filmlover]

Battle of the Sexes will be expanding to 1,200 theaters next weekend.
