Even with the lowered box office expectations for "The Flash" it will easily run over this movie at the box office.

Well now the reviews are literally on the Good Dinosaur level at least

Take it with a grain of salt. But plausible.

I mean, the same source predicted that Transformers would do $30-$40 right?

 

So, who knows?

That has been where the tracking has sat the last few weeks.

Maybe, maybe not. Seems plausible enough though. Flash, Elemental, and Indy are all roughly at the same level (or even slightly under) from when they each first hit industry tracking, and I don't really think there's been anything particularly favourable or unfavourable to drastically affect tracking since. That's not a great number for No Hard Feelings, especially if that budget is actually closer to the $70M that was thrown around earlier. Ruby Gillman's early numbers almost make Elemental's opening look good... almost.

 

Nice to see Elemental shoot up a bit now on RT as it approaches release. Still nowhere near what would be considered encouraging for the film's financial prospects, and Metacritic still has this at 27 out of 27 Pixar films on their site, but 78% on RT is a lot better than whatever it was at last week.

Odd that no top critics have reviewed it since Annecy…

Nice to see the scores getting better but this needed universal acclaim to have a shot at being a success… 

[Krissykins]

Reviews have really turned around, that’s a shame it was lumbered with a rotten score for so much of its presale run while they were trying to build buzz.

35 Million OW projection. OUch.

Critics Consensus

Elemental may not satisfy as fully as the greatest Pixar pictures, but it remains a solid story told with dazzling visual flair.
