The brand is still big worldwide and the characters are well-known. To revisit the world, especially if done right, might reignite interest especially in North America. We also don't know how ELIO will perform. We don't have anything to base our predictions on. If it's just on the Pixar brand, well, it's not really good news right now. I hope both do well, though.

Original movies are sometimes needed and welcome. Zootopia clobbered Kung Fu Panda 3, remember? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannastop Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 I wonder... Why not have this movie premier at the Berlin Film Festival? That happens in February. Other Pixar movies have premiered at Cannes in May and then had a wide release in June. But maybe Berlin isn't good enough for Disney.

AniNate Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Bumping for the one year mark I think this could be pretty big if it's got the reviews. Premise seems like it has potential for a fun space adventure. I'm hoping DreamWorks bluffed putting KFP4 the week after though, seems like a move that hurts both films. I will say if Disney/Pixar really want to put their money where their mouths are re LGBT representation, this would be a good opportunity to do it with an original concept and openly gay director.

cannastop Posted May 4, 2023 Share Posted May 4, 2023 I wonder, who's the writer for this movie? I'm curious who's writing the screenplay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannastop Posted May 12, 2023 Share Posted May 12, 2023 I also wonder if, like Lightyear, it has some scenes in 1.43 aspect ratio for IMAX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another Pixar movie which will be banned in many countries. Which would limit its potential for WW gross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AniNate Posted June 3, 2023 Share Posted June 3, 2023 I said that of course before Elemental's reviews and Pixar's layoffs made it clear they're in dire straits. I dunno, just gonna hope for the best with this movie. Adrian Molina at least has an acclaimed movie to his credit with Coco and the premise seems more relatable on the surface than Elemental's.

LegionWrex Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 They are starting the marketing campaign super early for this one, probably realized that they need to get the word out on it after seeing Elemental's tracking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Not terribly unusual to start promoting the March release with their prior summer movie, definitely would be far too late to wait until Wish. Also it looks like Pixar may once again need to move on quickly from their current promotional subject. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
