So we don't know who's directing it?

 

My hype is dependent on knowing who's behind it!

[Morieris]

Ok.

 

THIS has the possibility to be my jam.

The director is Adrian Molina (co-director on Coco). Sounds cool to me.

[YM!]

My god I’m so damn hyped for this! Pixar making a comeback.

Elio etymology says the name is from Italy, means Aelious or Helios.

 

Between Luca, Mario, and Elio, Italian representation in Western Animation is getting a boost.

Well I mean it sounds OK. Wait and see.

Turning Red didn't sound awesome to me until there was more press about it a month before release.

So is the exact release date March 1st, 2024, or is wikipedia wrong? 🤔

[cannastop]

Yeah I'm getting unreasonably hyped for this. The concept seems cool and I like the art.

It's correct. Disney's had a Pixar film staked there for a while.

 

(I'm assuming Kung Fu Panda 4 shifts to April soon)

The whole Q1 slate for animation is packed as the current schedule is animation every two weeks:

Tiger - 1/19/24

Toto - 2/2/24

Garfield - 2/16/24

Elio - 3/1/24

KFP4 - 3/8/24

Beyond Spidey - 3/29/24

KFP4 - 3/8/24

Beyond Spidey - 3/29/24

That's why I'm assuming KFP4 shifts to mid-to-late April. It's simply too crowded in Q1, and being between a Pixar movie and Spider-Verse 3 doesn't bode well for it.

 

May also works since there's no family films between Spider-Verse 3 and Inside Out 2 at the moment.

First Luca, now Elio, who in Disney decided to watch Call me by your name?

really hope Kung Fu Panda 4 moves.

Someone pointed out that this dude main character looks like someone from the background of Turning Red and that's about right.

March 2024 seems a bit crowded...

 

Elio

Kung Fu Panda 4 (This seems like a weak link)

Godzilla and Kong (another weak link)

Mufasa (The Lion King Part II) (I don't really know how this will do)(EDIT: This is wrong, Box Office Mojo is wrong)

OK actually some Disney Snow White movie will be in March instead lol

Spider-Verse 3 (Going to have to wait to see how the second one does)

 

All in successive weeks.

 

I will bet Elio will be the biggest success of them all though. Just have a feeling.

KUNG FU PANDA IV is a big threat, imo.
