Curious that this got a minor backlash online for being too random. It´s funny to me how people react badly these days to absurd premises as if it´s desperation and not creativity ... this type of absurd base storylines was what made Pixar thrive once.

 

This isn´t much different than ´´a smart rat decided to control a human by hair and cook´´ or ´´old man goes to south with this flying house after wife is dead´´. The director is very talented, i hope it works out.

That's because people don't like anything that isn't based off something they already know. People claim they want original stuff, but they never actually want to go for it and just complain when they do go original.

I don't get the hate for Incredibles 2.

 

I love that movie.

Only a lot of organic publicity:

 

 

 

 

Not sure if it’s enough but more than I expected for something I thought already was dead before even getting released.

Lilo and Stitch I'm guessing August 8th 2025.

X-Men ‘97, Eyes of Wakanda and Kevin Feige seems very excited for Friendly Neighborhood Spider-Man. Hopefully the announcement that The Acolyte is getting a second season as well, Manny Jacinto has a panel this weekend.

Bob Iger seemed generally thrilled to be at D23. It's not often the CEO is cheered by thousands of fans.

If Iger is still there in 2026 when the next D23 comes around, I'd pay someone to go into the crowd and have a sign that says 'You're here until you're 90', maybe even shout it to him while he's on stage.

After catching up on all the trailers(the leaked ones as well) and all the news, I have to say that there really wasn't anything I disliked. I'm really excited for msot of the projects announced(Apart from that Monster Truck movie wtf is that? ^^) and I can't stop rewatching the Snow White teaser. Like I'm obessesed with it. I also thought the Mufasa trailer was much better than the teaser and makes me want to watch the movie now.

Only Incredibles 3. I'm expecting Zootopia 2 to land in the $400-450M range, and Frozen 3 to be in the $500-550M range.

Why does Hoppers sound like it was pitched as "what if Turning Red and Over the Hedge had a baby?"

Theme park stuff. 

[thajdikt]

We will see what will be mega success but holy does Disney have a lot of movie with 1B+ potentials. Like damn.

[BadOlCatSylvester]

Am I the only one who feels like both Incredibles 3 and Frozen 3 are in for some fairly steep drops from their respective previous movies? Both of their second chapters were met with mixed reception and have seemingly aged pretty poorly, and I feel like these new ones could end up paying for that.
