Weekend Thread | An Asgardian pops in on p.9 ~ HTTYD3 17m, A:BA 3.1m, IIR 2.2m

I wished the HTTYD-films had the large grosses of the DM-films.

 

HTTYD feels like the franchise that knows how to focus on a great story & mature themes without relying too much of slapsticky humour, and yet none of the films were massive successes. How is it so hard for some ”coming of age”-animated films to breakout the same way Illumination does with their movies? 😔😢

Alita: Battle Angel grossed an estimated $92.4M internationally this weekend, including debuts of $62.3M in China and $3.2M in Japan. International total stands at $202.7M, global total stands at $263.4M.#Alita #AlitaBattleAngel #BoxOffice @20thcenturyfox @AlitaMovie

 

92.4 OS weekend = 62.3 China + 3.2 Japan + 26.9 OS-Jp-Ch

65 more in China

12 more Japan

55 more OS-Jp-Ch

= 132 more OS

 

25 more Dom after 12 weekend

 

Gives 263 current WW + 132 + 25 = 420 WW

Didn't Alita get 65M in China over the weekend?

So Alita is about half way there to breaking even. It needs to pick up.

Hey, he put his money where his mouth was and I know he will honor it like a gentleman.  It always sucks when the movies we are so passionate about don't do what we think they should do.

 

We've all been there.

 

My hats off to @IronJimbo for not backing down and always believing in it!  You win some and you lose some.

 

 

Alita didn't hit all 4 quadrants as I thought it would. Was a great film of course, that much was obvious. Always felt a little off in the trailers, not epic enough.

 

Avatar making 4 billies be ready.

0.75AMatW confirmed for Alita.

Alita won't be outgrossing this movie to be Robert Rodriguez's highest domestic grosser

100M are officially dead (they have been dead since February 14th but whatever). Sequel is officially dead. No way Disney touches this again. Maybe a TV show for Hulu.

If Disney didn't make a sequel to Tron Legacy, I don't see why Alita would be a priority. Especially after seeing how hard Pac Rim 2 flopped.

[John Marston]

only way sequel happens is if James Cameron produces it with his own money

Right but they still decided to go ahead and make a TV show for Tron a year or two after Legacy came out. I think an Alita series could do well on Disney+ or Hulu if Disney and Cameron decide they wanna continue the story.
