Nah, I know you said this cheekily. But let's play along with some different takes temporal correlation does not mean causative correlation. This summer offerings are generally lacking in hype and quality. It can be postulated that if not for Endgame, most other movies would have done even worse. There is no way to prove one way or another Endgame excels in content, Avatar excelled in presentation/tech. Perhaps after Endgame, the audience's demand for quality films are somewhat increased, while after Avatar, those films that touted 3D (like AiW) benefited. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tnat's not a spolier... it's shown in some trailers when Rafiki raises Simba on the pride rock. That shocked me a bit. I mean, Disney is lately very engaged with gender and lgtb ideologies and all that ... but then they go full on puritans and castrate all their cgi hyperrealistic animals in TLK (I think grown up lions don't have balls either). At least for what i've seen in the trailers. Don't know about Rafiki. Not saying they should go totally explicit and detailed on the sex rendering definition, but at least defining a "bulky something" showing there's "something" down there. Can be kind of confusing for kids ... most of them sure have pet dogs and know what is down there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UserHN Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 5 minutes ago, meriodejaneiro said: A big decrease for HAS from FF8, could mean FF9 might decrease too next year? Do you mean F9 < F8 or F9 < H&S? If you mean F9 < H&S, I don't think so. H&S is a spinoff while F9 is a main event film. You could treat it like a SW movie pattern where there are spinoffs and there are main event films. If I were to make a prediction, I think F9 will be greater than H&S but less than F8. Just like TLJ was greater than RO but less than TFA. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gavin Feng Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 expect $150-200M for H&S. F9 probably will be under F7&F8. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F9 is also missing two main cast members from the series (The Rock and Statham), so reception and hype probably won't be as high as F7 or F8. However, F10 has a chance to be the biggest in the franchise if it is marketed as the finale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
