Jonwo Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 1 hour ago, Planodisney said: Illumination are geniuses at picking release dates. Lucky or genius. I think most studios pick mid to late July for animated films so Pets has been able to pick the kid audience which hasn't had a family film in ages. It'll likely slow down with BFG and Dory in the next few weeks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoguy Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Looks like releasing Dory so late is going to be a mistake for Pixar. Pets has gotten all the animated film attention in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The UK isn't China, we can support more than one big movie at a time, and Dory should be huge, just like the US and Aus. If what you say is correct, explain to me, how did Pets just break the original animated movie OW record in America when it's opened straight after Dory, which is the biggest animated move of all time in the US? Exactly. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchumacherFTW Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 The bad move was opening Ice Age between two big buzzed about animated movies. Should have been kept for October Half Term. It's bloody terrible by the way, but I'm not the target audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly. Universal released Pets earlier because they know Dory will open big so they earning as much money as they can know before the major kids competition start.
