Eh, intrigued to see how this film does review-wise.

 

Will it be a Frozen 2 or a Toy Story 2?

I predict it will maybe do mid 80s RT. I think it's possible that critics now are less favorable to Disney animated films now, whether WDAS or Pixar.

It’ll for sure be a financial success, but I’m on the fence on if it’ll touch the original’s gross.

Interesting analysis about this movie's domestic prospects:

 

I agree with this. I think 100-110m OW and 360-370m DOM. I think competition and Disney having issues in middle America will prevent it from doing 480m like Frozen 2 and Finding Dory did. I think it may see a bigger increase OS though because Wish and Elemental prove Disney name is bigger there, so over 900m WW.

Does Pixar still have it in them to pull off a TOy Story 2, where a sequel is actually as good if not better then the original?

No because they don't really have sequel-able movies anymore. Used them up

Would have an inside out 2 made $480 m dom.anyways? Not sure. Course we don't know what it will make this year

That was easy to do with Toy Story because it was just a decent movie.

 

Would be much harder to do with Inside Out because it's one of the greatest films of all time.

I think it was more that Inside Out just felt more self contained.

It is certainly my favorite animated film of the past few years.

And it has one bit I reference all the time in internet arguments; The "Facts and Opinions: People get them mixed up all the time" scene.

Oth, they are  sequeable from a box office point of view.most of the sequels make money...but from an artisitc point of view I agree.

Hell, I evne think Frozen was pretty much self contained.

Yeah, don't understand why that movie got a sequel when there was nothing left to talk about.

Domee Shi did say there could be a continuation of Turning Red but it's not what she's working on now. So that's very far in the future if it happens at all, but it is something I personally would like to see. Luca's director on the other hand kind of closed the door.

Yeah, the latter film has nothing meaningful to expand upon. Inside Out 2 has some things it could do, but I'm not sure how the outcome will be. The trailers don't seem to be taking themselves seriously.

I don't think any movie is truly "unsequelable" from a creative standpoint, unless maybe the characters are all killed off (though that's not always the case either). It's just the motivation for making them isn't often legit creativity.

I would be very surprised if any of Pixar’s streaming era films ended up with sequels. Too much uncertainty around their potential box office.

Wasn’t there a source somewhere saying that this would be screening at cinemacon?

 

They typically show like the first half hour of their summer releases at an influencer junket (happening now) followed by a presentation of the same footage at Cinemacon.

 

I guess their thinking is give everyone enough to do a writeup of substance on but also withhold enough that they can't give a complete evaluation, leaving them inclined to lean on benefit of the doubt and write about the footage they do see with a positive tone.

I think depending on how well Domee Shi's second feature does she could get a blank check of sorts.

Very cool...

 

They did something similar with Elemental and we know how that turned out.

Basic fact about all major film studios is they are businesses...their first duty is to generate profits for the stockholders...and ervrything else is secondary.
