An Angel Studios production that will likely have cheap visuals and a Z-list voice cast is completely nonthreatening to a sequel to one of the biggest animated movies ever lmao. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felandria Posted Sunday at 03:05 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:05 PM 1 hour ago, YM! said: Moana 2: IO2 blowing up definitely has me more optimistic on its prospects. Pencil me in for $110m five day/$320m domestic/around $850m worldwide. Feel like Frozen 2 level reception is right but if it wasn’t for that fact this turned into a movie about 6 months ago when Wish died and they brought in actual songwriters from Broadway, I’d feel more optimistic from a quality perspective that could make it pull a Shrek 2/Across/DM2. Zootopia 2: Feel a more modest increase for this. Still is popular but not to the heights of Frozen or Moana. Think similar jump as Frozen II for about $390m-400m domestic with enough increases in other countries to make up for China falling to put it about flat from the first. Domestic could go higher. Toy Story 5: Fifthquels don’t really work as well but think it’ll do fine enough. Around 350m domestic and 900m worldwide, assuming quality is there. Frozen 3: I have been saying since the first movie Jennifer Lee has screenwriting problems which has been seen in Wrinkle in Time, Frozen 2’s development cycle and Wish but think we’re underestimating this one. Frozen was like so big and this being the first of a two parter could draw in excitement and it also being a while since the second. Wouldn’t be surprised if the GA really likes it, topping IO2. Shrek 5: If quality is there, think this could be animation’s first $700m domestic hit and maybe like $1.8B-$1.9B WW. Shrek is love, Shrek is life. Incredibles 3: Probably could also top IO2’s record considering the right pitch. As much as we moan about it, the GA seemed to dug the second one. Only question is if it makes the OS jumps to reach IO2. Mario 2: Feels like a Frozen II to me, won’t have the same nostalgia craze but the GA really loved. Expecting similar bumps puts it at $650m/$1650m. Beyond: Though I don’t think it can’t top IO2 worldwide, could see potential of a big increase domestic as both the first and the second are really loved. Haven’t seen as consistent quality from an animated franchise since Toy Story. If Beyond delivers and makes an all timer, would not be surprised at Incredibles 2 numbers domestic. What is Beyond?

Also really nice to see Fall Guy saving some face by reaching 90M. 100 is out of reach for sure, but after such a disappointing opening I’m glad it had some good legs. I guess 90-100 is the ceiling for these David Leitch movies. And one more thing to add before this thread gets swallowed up by IO2 numbers, I’m in the camp that Moana 2 will outgross Zootopia 2 UNLESS there’s some massive difference in quality (I.e. Zootopia being as good as the first, while Moana 2 has the quality of a DTV sequel with no hit songs). Moana has stuck around in the cultural mind far more than Zootopia has; Zootopia I feel is far more popular in online circles. For now I’d guess 350-400 for Moana, 300-350 for Zootopia. That being said, I’m not entirely confident about Moana’s quality, so for now I’ll temper my expectations and say 280-300 for it. I know it is very unlikely, but I’m hoping it can have small drops though July and reach 95-96 million before it closes out, and then Universal does one last push over Labour Day weekend with the Cinema Day weekend and it crawls to 100 million. One can dream. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the 4th long weekend around the corner and July weekdays, it has a good chance of crossing 200 million like the last one. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this hand wringing over it being originally a streaming series seems weird. Like we don’t even know if it’ll be bad because of that or because the movie itself just doesn’t work regardless. It’s just slightly frustrating this is being used to bash the movie without any evidence that it’ll be garbage. And I’m pretty sure Disney didn’t literally decide 6 months ago to change it to a theatrical release Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmlover Posted Sunday at 03:13 PM Share Posted Sunday at 03:13 PM This has actually remained a pretty decent summer overall. Furiosa remains the only movie that missed even the lowest of expectations so far. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
