IndustriousAngel Posted December 22, 2018 Author Share Posted December 22, 2018 Mary Poppins will probably end somewhere around 1mil total, a "meh" number at best for a big Disney release ... Bumblebee will miss the million by a lot (the 150k are already including previews), what a decline for this franchise but as Taruseth mentioned, that's better than expected (frankly, I don't know where those 150k come frome, definitely an outright flop at my theater).

I think 1mil for Mary Poppins is pretty awful... If there are any country outside Uk (and USA and maybe australia) were I expected it to do good business those countries are Japan and Germany.

And ITSV had a very comic like animation style and is a superhero and both aren't that popular here and kind of totally flopped like opening below ME.

Omni Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 As IndustriousAngel said some weeks ago, animation in Germany is confined in "stuff for kids", meaning it tends (as a general rule) to be more successful when it strictly appeals to children (read: when the product is dumb and unrefined).

xxoo Posted December 23, 2018 Share Posted December 23, 2018 I think the grinch is a harmless fun movie its not excellent like some of Pixar movies but better then some Pixar garbage like cars and the good dinosaur 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the Despicable/Minions films... Yeah. Those are real kid films and they do so much better than really good animation films. I think Disney's animation (WDAS and Pixar) are often to mature for kids. (Don't know how to explain it) And I might be wrong, but I'd say, that those films have stronger evening showings. Like for movies like Inside out the evening shows (later than 8 were pretty full, while for minions they were rather empty, but Minions had really full afternoon shows, which aren't that full for Disney) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they died out? Maybe another mix of age groups watched it here than e.g. in the US? Less children of an age that actually liked it then? Maybe less reruns on TV? I do not know anyone who ever watched it there neither, but I didn't ask all potentials = I was surprised a lot about the high expectations here 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh, so you will be able to answer this I guess: did they translate the songs in part 1 for our TV,....?

Movies held excellently against all three Star Wars christmas releases AND other new releases at the same time. 50 minutes ago, terrestrial said: Ahh, so you will be able to answer this I guess: did they translate the songs in part 1 for our TV,....? Yes, all songs got a German version. I think that was standard for all Disney movies back then. They wouldn't really let a movie have so much english in it. In this particular movie, the German voice was split into one for dialogue (Uta Hallant) and one for the singing (Monika Dahlberg). And you can definately hear the difference between the two 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
