Letsuseournoggin Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 How is it trying to steal Katniss' thunder? I don't get it... Because of a bow? Its like saying Hotel Transylvania, an animated film, is trying to steal TDKR thunder because of bats since it comes out a few months after it like your comparison. The movies aren't in the same ball park. It isn't even the same sport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 (edited) This THG/Brave (or Katnips/Merida) battle is all in your head, let it go. Oh, plus Brave is a way better movie than THG It`s so better than THG that it got lower critical score and lower CS score (THG A+, Brave A). And Shawn didn`t care for it either:Even though I thought the movie itself was incredibly underwhelming. Probably their most forgettable movie outside Cars 2, IMO.

fishstick Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 (edited) How is it trying to steal Katniss' thunder? I don't get it... Because of a bow?Because they are trying to position Merida as the ultimate role model for girls because of a bow when they know very well that it`s Katniss. Unbelievable arrogance on Pixar part. I really hope this doesn`t make $300 mio. Edited June 23, 2012 by fishnets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shantal Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 It`s so better than THG that it got lower critical score and lower CS score (THG A+, Brave A). And Shawn didn`t care for it either: The Hunger Games audience also skewed slightly older (56 percent were 25 years of age and up), and they awarded the movie a strong "A" CinemaScore. http://www.boxofficemojo.com/news/?id=3401&p=.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoxOfficeZ Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Possible 25m OD for Brave? Damn! I'm about to see it in an hour. Will keep my expectations low. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable arrogance on Pixar part. I really hope this doesn`t make $300 mio.Because Pixar started making this film after they read THG right? You make no sense.

Bumblebee Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 (edited) You are nuts if you try and turn this into THG vs Brave. Why not enjoy that two female centred movies are kicking ass in incredibly different formats. Especially when THG has crossed $400mil and it's achivements will not be forgotten for years.

baumer Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Excellent start for Brave. I learned my lesson not to go against Pixar again anytime soon.Even though I thought the movie itself was incredibly underwhelming. Probably their most forgettable movie outside Cars 2, IMO.Can you give me an extrapolation for rOA from a 2.6 Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddddeeee Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 Brave was concieved well over a year before THG was published. This is a random and silly comparison if I ever saw one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Founder / Operator Shawn Robbins Posted June 23, 2012 Founder / Operator Share Posted June 23, 2012 Can you give me an extrapolation for rOA from a 2.6 Friday. Hmm, my rough guess would be right around $8m weekend. Fri: 2.6m Sat: 3m +15% Sun: 2.3m -22% 7.9m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishstick Posted June 23, 2012 Share Posted June 23, 2012 (edited) You're the one with that delusion.Brave loonies will disappear quickly like that Tangled loonie from BOM disappeared as soon as everyone stopped talking about Tangled. Which was fast. So, yeah, have your moment while you can. Kantiss FTW! Go Catching Fire, go! Edited June 23, 2012 by fishnets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
