Well it wasn't obvious.

 

It is obvious if you read the whole conversation.

Failing to match previous years is the fact and it is called weak. 2013 is weaker than 2012 and 2011.

 

Weaker and weak are different.

Poised to be the third biggest Pixar film ever worldwide!

If MU made such money despite its quality, FD should be able to make 700+ OS gross.

Monsters University is a good movie, people enjoyed it. "Your opinion" doesn't mean "everybody's opinion"

I was talking about its quality compared with the Original. I never said it was bad.

not Pixar level

I could see this doing $550M OS at the start of summer

All the essential components are there. How can it miss?

Japan number is incredible though...

[Fullbuster]

not Pixar level 

 

In my opinion it is.

In my opinion it is.

for most people it isn't, according to RT and IMDB and Boxoffice

It's the 4th biggest and will finish 3rd biggest ever WW so that last part of the statement is incorrect. I loved it as much as MI so to me this was step in the right direction after Cars 2.

the legs were terrible for an animated movie and the OS total was way below expectations

To the first part, DM2. To the second, says who? It's done way better than I thought it would.

It dropped great on 2nd weekend so WOM was very good but unfortunately, DM2 killed it domestically and as for 2nd part, says who? It's going to make 470M+ OS with a shot at 480M, pretty great in my book so I definitely don't buy below expectations.

first part, TS3 and DM. second part, Cars 2 was terrible and made 368m (Cars made about the same as MI, but MI was 5 years before Cars), The Croods without sequel recognition and a brand like Pixar made 398m in this same year

The Croods has ZERO competition.

Monsters Inc: 270m

> 5 years after 

Cars: 217m

> 5 years after

Cars 2: 368m

> 2 years after

The Croods: 398m

Monsters University: 460-480m

 

seriously guys? MU had all: 3D, market expansions, Pixar brand and it was a sequel to one of the most beloved animated movies of the past decade, The floor should have been 500m for this.
