don't get why they are waiting so long for domestic release. January 11 would be a good release date and allow it to hold well the following weekend thanks to the MLK 4 day holiday. Weird decision from Universal

[shayhiri]

Yes, extremely stupid. Especially opening right AFTER Alita. This is what will undo them.

 

Also torrents and spoilers. But mainly Alita.

These movies have been humiliating Pixar for ten years now.

I think even studios themselves were worried about Poppins being a massive juggernaut. 

 

At least where it is it has 2 weeks to itself before Cap Marvel. But yea, with the benefit of hindsight, Jan 11 would have been a much better date.

I think Uni made the right call in the States tbh. If it came out next week, families would have already spent so much on all the holiday offerings that interest would probably be lower. Also helps that it will have two weeks of IMAX all to itself instead of one if it opened on the 11th.

don't think animated movies really do well in IMAX despite many of them looking great in the format

Pretty much went the way I expected but still had me emotional at the end. I liked it more than the 2nd but not as much as the 1st. 

[Asyulus]

I’m ready to be sad and satisfied..

[MrFanaticGuy34]

Excellent RT-ratings so far.

 

Just please, HTTYD3. Don’t disappoint me embarrassingly in terms of box office like KFP3 did.

 

I am begging for this film to be a breakout hit this time.

[Brainbug]

The trailer for this looked glorious in the theater.

 

Will still kinda underperform i think. 140-170M DOM, 500M+ WW me thinks. Its been 5 years since Part 2 and nine since the first one.

[Godzilla]

I’m really excited for this. I loved both the HTTYD films especially the first one and can’t wait to see how it’ll end. Around $500 million would be good. 

[filmlover]

So excited for this. Love these movies.

[YM!]

I’m very excited for this, most anticipated animated film of the year for me.

[TheDarkKnightOfSteel]

Best trilogy of the decade tbh

[TMP]

First two were incredible, and the first is tied with The Lego Movie for me in terms of best animated films of the decade

[CJohn]

Coming out right after President's Day weekend seems like a particularly dumb decision.

I have been looking forward to this third installment ever since someone revealed its part of its main plot years ago, 

 

saw it yesterday, the whole storyline is quite predictable , no big surprise, yet it gives this franchise a fitting conclusion. not bad at all.

 

personally I think it will be hard for studio to squeeze more juice from the story of Hiccup and Toothless to further this franchise(movie wise)
