Omni Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 The Lion King is likely more profitable from theaters. Frozen 2 definitely more profitable pretty much anywhere else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooper Legion Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Frozen 2 will likely win in Deadline’s profit estimates. The diff of 200M in gross is about 90M in revenue given their similar DOM/OS-C/C splits, so Frozen’s 110M advantage in production budget will put it ahead. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPLC Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Can it make $1,45B WW ? How much can Frozen 2 add Worldwide ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mau Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Not counting the lion king remake, do you guys see any potential animated movie to pass frozen 2 at the box office? I can only see a zootopia sequel doing it. I cant think of another, cause i guess minions have caused fatigue worldwide. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooper Legion Posted February 19, 2020 Share Posted February 19, 2020 Frozen 3 or Incredibles 3 seem like the most obvious candidates to me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frozen 3 should have a better release date, especially if Disney wants the movie to be released at the same time worldwide. incredibles 3, I guess will not make 600 in the USA, probably 500, but it will increase overseas. the reason i think zootopia, bc the first ine made so much money in china. Obvs this is too early to predict Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minions/DM: too weak domestically and maybe have passed away. Frozen 3: if happens, if sounds good, if it's still a merchandise monster. Zootopia: wait, Zootopia who? LOL. But could happens with.. Something of strong Asia-oriented (or totally Chinese) new brand helped by good exchange rates. A Disney Princess crossover/reunion in Avengers or Arrowverse style (see Ralph 2).

Does anyone know why pixar performs so bad overseas? only domestic and in Mexico seems to perform well. Yes maybe an original animated chinese film could make 1.5 Billion alone in ten years.

Pixar being weak overseas is mostly a false myth. Incredibles 2 and TS4 both did well over 600M overseas with awful exchange rates, and both Coco and Inside Out did just great considering they're original. That said, there is no Pixar movie among the top 7 animated movie of all time overseas. Top 10 Frozen 2 > 975M Frozen > 880M Minions > 823M DM3 > 770M Ice Age 4 > 716M Ice Age 3 > 690M Zootopia > 683M TS3 > 654M TS4 > 639M I2 > 634M A few relevant facts: * 6 of those 7 movies at the top belong to only 3 franchises and 6 of them are sequels * When TS3 was released, it was the #2 all-time os grosser just behind IA3 * Pixar gets pretty much ignored in China, which is something a little troubling nowadays; just switch the China gross of DM3 and TS4, and the latter is on par if not higher than the former * Pixar's sequels are not confirmed the week after the last chapter of the franchise comes out, but they get into production years later - with obvious consequences on both quality and quick box office revenues (much easier to beat the iron while it's hot) * Pixar often makes films that clearly are not meant to get a sequel, while Blue Sky and Illumination do the exact opposite (and we all know that you usually needs the third sequel of a beloved franchise if you want to go really really high) * Pixar is extremely consistent, and does not fully rely on a single franchise to top the chart (take IA out of Blue Sky and you get nothing; take the Minions out of Illumination and you don't have much left) 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
