Between the four Marvel movies, Indiana Jones, The Little Mermaid, The Haunted Mansion, and new movies from both their animation houses, their 2023 is looking packed enough as it is.

I mean it's animated, which usually is behind closed doors and doesn't get a lot of information from the press in terms of production/filming. Not totally crazy that it could be ready by 2023. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won't want to move away from the spot where the first did well (especially given the warm weather setting). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skyler guy seemed pretty confident that they will announce Lion King for 2023. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WittyUsername Posted May 25, 2022 Share Posted May 25, 2022 December 2023 is still a wildcard at this point. It doesn’t seem likely that Disney will have a Star Wars movie ready for that date, and I have my doubts that Star Trek 4 will make it either.

BestPicturePlutoNash Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 What are the Barbie predictions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted June 4, 2022 Share Posted June 4, 2022 6 hours ago, BestPicturePlutoNash said: What are the Barbie predictions? Should at least match Girls Trip's $31M opening, if not a bit higher than that due to the brand/star power and not being rated R. As long as the reviews are good it should have strong legs through the end of summer and into the fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pinacolada Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 I think Kraven should do better than Morbius just on the virtue of it being a better movie. JC Chandor is a solid director. I think it'll be pretty good, and will translate to a decent box office take (over 100m+ DOM) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BestPicturePlutoNash Posted June 5, 2022 Share Posted June 5, 2022 Chandor is a good director but not exactly a commercial nor crowdpleasing one: Triple Frontier- 6.4 IMDB. 3.0 Letterboxd. 55% RT Audience score. Most Violent Year- 7.0 IMDB. 3.5 Letterboxd. 69% RT audience score. (5.7m) All is Lost- 6.9 IMDB. 3.5 Letterboxd. 64% RT audience score. (6.2m) Margin Call- 7.1 IMDB. 3.5 Letterboxd. 74% RT audience score. (5.3m) He also doesn't have a screenplay credit. It belongs to Matt Holloway and Art Marcum (Iron Man, Uncharted, Men in Black 4, Transformers Last Knight, Punisher War Zone) + Richard Wenk (The Protege, The Equalizer, Jack Reacher 2, The Magnificent Seven, The Mechanic).. so the script will be very studio mandated and generic even if Chandor rewrites And I think unless there's an actual hook, these non-MCU Marvel movies will be roundly rejected by audiences.

Yeah the combination of both and the relative popularity of Jaime. Probably the third most popular new comic book character behind Miles and Kamala. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider-Man (Miles Morales) 2. Robin (Damian Wayne) 3. Blue Beetle (Jaime Reyes) 4. Green Lantern (Jessica Cruz) 5. Ms Marvel (Kamala Khan) 6. X-23 (Laura Kinney) 7. Superboy (Jon Kent) 8.. Ghost Rider (Robbie Reyes) 9. Nova (Sam Alexander) 10. Wonder Girl (Yara Flor) Basically legacy characters are the only ones with staying power, originals don’t stick anymore. Interestingly enough 6/10 are Latino characters Edited June 5, 2022 by El Gato Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly enough 6/10 are Latino characters I think Kamala is definitely more popular than Damian and Jessica Cruz but I think with those they round out the top 5. Even prior to the MCU effect about to take place. I think the list would be: Miles Morales Kamala Khan Jaime Reyes Jessica Cruz Damain Wayne If Static counted which he shouldn’t due to his 90s debut, I’d put him over Cruz.

I agree with those 5 being the top 5 but I think Kamala would be lower since Jessica and Damian have had longer lasting series and Jaime has appeared in more high profile projects. But we’re getting off topic lol! Hoping the Blue Beetle film makes bank at the box office! The character deserves it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
