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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudalb Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No because they don't really have sequel-able movies anymore. Used them up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Course we don't know what it will make this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used them up 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cannastop Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroHour Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very cool... They did something similar with Elemental and we know how that turned out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudalb Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
