Big Hero 6 | November 7, 2014 | Now available on home video

[Spidey Freak]

Are we possibly looking at the year's 2nd biggest film DOM and biggest film OS and WW?

[SpiderByte]

Well it premieres the same day as Interstellar in the US, which could impact it's box office, but nobody expected Frozen to do as well as it did, so who knows?

Yeah, I think this has great potential for 300M+ while I don't see Interstellar making Inception numbers. Let's see. WDAS and The Hunger Games have made winter BO exciting again!

[BadAtGender]

There have been several weekends with two films that have each earned 200m. None yet where both have hit 300m or even 250m. I hope that this weekend is the first.

Out of the two, I actually think Interstellar may disappoint and not hit 250M. But that's just me getting ahead of myself. We just had TWO 400M+ movies releasing just five days apart, so two 300M movies or one 300M+ and one 250M+ movie releasing on the same day is not that much of a stretch.

Great teaser I can see big numbers for this film already

Better Quality trailer:

 

 

Much better.  That version with the side by side images was just weird.  Fun whimsical trailer.  Can't wait to get more details.

 

This was a great scene:

 

 

 

Just needs a Sailor outfit and ...

 

 

 

But Baymax looks to have much nicer disposition.

I LOVED the teaser! Made me literally LOL. I don't know anything about Big Hero 6 but I can already see there will be some kind of emotional relationship between the two of them. I also loved the music, it's The Avengers-ish.

EDIT: Wait, so is this really February 2015 now? That's an awful downgrade from a Holiday release, if true.

I know Disney is riding a huge momentum wave right now, but I find it next to impossible to believe this could beat HTTYD2. Remember, people seem to love the return of the Disney princess movie with Tangled and Frozen performing so much better than all their other recent stuff. This doesn't have that going for it.

 

The difference between Tangled and WiR is pretty negligible, and could possibly be chalked up to released date. (For DOM, at least. WW is another matter.) Frozen's a level above those, and then some, which is part of the reason BH6 could do very well. It's the followup to a sensation, and while nobody expects it to achieve the same heights, it should receive some benefit because of the association. (Some lesser benefit may happen from the Marvel association, but only if they choose to exercise it. That doesn't seem to be the case so far.)

 

Beating HTTYD2 isn't likely to happen. If it does, it's probably because HTTYD2 underperformed relative to expectations rather than this doing so much better. But still, hitting somewhere between Frozen and WiR/Tangled seems likely.

That's only for the UK, right?

Edited May 23, 2014 by catlover

[BadAtGender]

Yeah. The US release is still November.

Ah, that makes more sense.

[catlover]

Hmm it's released in February in some countries. That's interesting. Why aren't France, UK and Netherlands getting the same release dates as Frozen?

[zackzack]

Big opening guaranteed. Disney should keep that teaser for as long as they can.

If this plays like INCREDIBLES, Disney will have another $600M+ WW grosser

in their hands after CAP2

After Frozen triumphantly survived the Hunger Games, I don't think we need to worry this time with BH6. This is Disney.

So happy with all the early positive response for the footage and posters! Way to build early buzz.

And this is nothing! If it's already catching so much attention, then imagine the anticipation in six months time!
