Robot308 Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 I don't see Everest doing well. We will see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yandereprime101189 Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Eh, it's been advertised pretty well for the most part. I see this doing about $38-$45 million opening weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenstate5 Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Really guys Sony Animation is not even close to bottom of the barrel family entertainment. I can think of so, so much worse. Let's not do the whole "holy Pixar" thing, you're just sounding ridiculous. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldenstate5 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I don't think it'll get terriblr reviews, but after Pixels I doubt Sony wants another film starring Sandler to have advanced screenings for the press. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 A lot of movies are attaching trailers to this. Guess it happens a lot, but I'm wondering how many will be pushed back to be with Pan and Goosebumps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grim22 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Where are the reviews? From Forbes: I’m embargoed from reviewing Hotel Transylvania 2 until tomorrow afternoon, so all I will say is that I am baffled as to why the embargo for Hotel Transylvania 2 is so close to the release.

AniNate Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I wonder if saying when an embargo should've ended would be considered breaking an embargo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MovieGuyKyle17 Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 I'm curious as to why there is a embargo. I cant imagine this film being that bad. I see Sandler got a writing credit but it still doesn't look horrible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hahaha Sony is terrified of Sandler-itis. Didn't critics on the first say that they were surprised how restrained Sandler seemed? But whatever, Sony's gonna Sony.

Could this be a sign that maybe it's not so bad? While not often, some late-embargoed movies have turned out to actually be well received critically. Who knows?

AniNate Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Mad Max being a big example, though I highly doubt this is getting those kinds of reviews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TServo2049 Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) Jurassic World was embargoed extremely late; it didn't get amazing reviews, but I remember reading people assuming the late embargo meant the film was going to be really bad.

AniNate Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Sony isn't the worst animation studio, but in a world where Shaun the Sheep struggles to reach $20 million you wish these bigger studios would have to work a little harder to earn their keep. They shouldn't be able to turn a profit just by animating some little blue people screwing around for 90 minutes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So...well, there's that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
