About FB: I'm expecting Hobbit's numbers for this, maybe less since the ER is way worse, yeah, Potter is popular here, but not THAT popular, like in Europe, for example, it's something like in NA, since HP and LOTR are pretty much equal in popularity here, I would say that Hobbit's numbers would be more than great for this.

I really don't understand this too, just like your wife, I grew up watching Disney/Pixar movies, that's why I was so shocked when I checked their Box Office here, DW and Blue Sky are the biggest companies of animation movies here..... But, things are starting to change, Zootopia destroyed a DWA movie (KFP3), and, FD has chances at beating an IA movies this year, and, iirc, FN is the animation movie that most sold tickets here!

Mockingjay Raphael Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Actually, a good answer to your question would be: Because Disney/Pixar are not into sequels like DWA/BS, for example, here, original movies always struggle to find audience, while sequels tend to be really bigger, for example Frozen made 'only' $23m here back in 2014, but, since then, I would say that it is the most popular movie ever in Brazil, if they release a sequel, it would easily surpass most of DW/BS movies, IMO. The first DM movie also didn't make huge numbers here, and look how much Minnions made last year...... Most of the movies here needs to have sequels to build a fandom and to make massive numbers.

That would be half of DH2's 35.7m. Kinda disappointing. Edited April 19, 2016 by James Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because Disney and Pixar mostly produce "original" stuff and Brazilian people seems to be allergic to films that aren't sequels or adaptations to hot properties.

Well, my dear, I'm feeling that you will have a lot of disappointments with this movie, it won't bring the same nostalgia fever that SW brought last year, and I know that you're expecting this. If the Gold Trio was in the movie, then, the history would be WAY different... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Napoleon Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 @Mockingjay Raphael did you read this review? http://theyoungfolks.com/review/movie-review-captain-america-civil-war/76890 I guess someone forgot to send him the check But it's nice to read a critic's honest opinion about it. From what he said I already feel I will hate this movie because he pointed out all the problems in MCU movies that annoy me, and if Marvel didn't take risks with this movie, they never will. I think I'm done giving money to this franchise. I respect who enjoy it, but it's not for my taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm with you, I'm done giving money to this company, I thought that they would finally improve on this movie, but, from what I'm reading, it will be the same overrated shit, BVS may be bad, but, at least it is way different from MOS, while MOS has no similarities with the TDK trilogy, and how about Marvel? Their movies are divided between: Overrated shits (Avengers 1, Cap 2, GOTG), and, hated shits (Iron Man 3, Thor 2, Avengers 2). I'm DONE with this company. Anyway, are you going to the previews of CW? I'm going to buy my ticket today!! LOL I'm serious, I don't think I'll see it. If it were months ago I would because I watched everything, but now I don't have time. Last movie I saw in the cinema was 10 Cloverfield Lane on opening day, it was 13 days ago.

Mockingjay Raphael Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Finally watched 10 Cloverfield Lane, and, wow, finally a great movie! It's so good to see that we can still go to cinema and have some surprises while watching a movie, tense from the beggining till the end, I don't remember watching a thriller so good as this one! But.... The movie is not perfect at all, I read a lot of complaint about the movie being not a movie, but, just an episode, and, I have to agree, I would divide the movie in two: there's the thriller one, that works perfectly well on it's own, but, the sci-fi one only works if you're into the Cloverfield World, and, a movie needs to work without depending of previous movies, if you haven't watched the first movie, you won't understand this movie at all.. It's Hardy to judge this, if I would judge as a horror fan that already knew the Cloverfield Universe, I would give an A+, because the movie works in the two ways, as a thriller and as a sci-fi, but, as a casual viewer, I would say that only half of the movie works. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mockingjay Raphael Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 How's doing the preales of CW in your city, Napoleon? It is flopping here, zero sold out so far, and it has only midnight shows, unlike BVS that had shows starting at 7M because of the demand, I think it won't beat BVS here 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arlborn Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 It seems to be a bit weaker in my relatively small town than BvS as well, nothing sold out at the local movie theater that I could see yet but there are some dubbed(argh) showings almost sold out on Thursday and Saturday. We've got 2 midnight showings from Wednesday to Thursday in my local theater and they each have about a dozen tickets sold only so far. BvS had those half sold by the Sunday before the showings so I will see if they sell well this weekend. I'm seeing it on Sunday myself, I can't go any earlier for personal reasons, sadly. I wish I was going to one of those midnight showings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
