My point was they don't like every great film. Some awesome ones just don't work, that one included. I hope you are correct. It needs to be marketed heavily there. I am just hoping. Too early to make calculated predictions. Let us see how buzz is like 3 weeks to release when we get early tracking and PS start. I am sure we will get early reviews for this movie as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Digging the music I especially love the monsters designs, and Chris Pratt's character looks hilarious. I think it has huge potential to break out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In China, Inside Out didn’t connect as Coco nailed it as the themes of family drove it home. If Onward has a family theme similar it can nail it there.

JB33 Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 The untitled Pixar film for June 19. 2020 still hasn't been announced. Anyone think Onward will end up moving there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

excel1 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Wonder Woman 1984 needs to move up to the first weekend of May/last weekend of April summer opening tentpole release date. Looks highly unlikely the May 1st Marvel movie happens and even if it does, who knows what it will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On a bigger level, someone needs to show Disney they won't have unchallenged control over the release date schedule. Wonder Woman 2 opening a month after Black Widow would not do Wonder Woman any favors. Only way to reach Wonder Womans potential - move the release date up. Undercut Disney and establish some dominance 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Wiki shows an untitled Pixar film on the schedule for June. That can't be true right? Horrendous decision if so, Onward will still be in the late legs of its box office run. Also, Onward or Mulan really need to move. Really stupid for what could be two of the top 5 movies of the year owned by the same studio to release right by each other in such a low key schedule year overall.

Yeah, June isn't a good date for Wonder Woman 1984. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I were Disney, I’d move Mulan to Christmas and Cruella to April cause Cruella will die no matter what. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I don't think it's a horrendous situation I do think it's interesting that Disney is having Pixar releasing multiple films again next year when it hasn't worked out the first two times they've tried. Meanwhile the one time WDAS did in 2016 both Zootopia and Moana were successes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YM! Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 You know a certain MCU fanboy whinnied today about us underestimating the MCU and I agree. I can see The Eternals winning the year with a real good shot at Captain Marvel Numbers as the lack of big films will help it gains some solid legs as well as potentially the first LGBT superhero.

Even in the past it was spotty: 2002: Stitch (hit) and Treasure Planet (flop) 2000: F2000 (flop), Dinosaur (underperforms) and TENG (underperform) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally I guess it's just hard with the amount of time and effort Pixar and Disney put into their films to release more than one a year. Pumping multiple films a year is what led to DreamWorks' dminishing returns anyways. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
