Jandrew Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 I dont know if yall forgot, but the 2000 Grinch WAS the #1 movie of 2000, and the 66 one is still a classic. Not saying this will be one of the biggest od the year, but people love the Grinch, and I'd argue it's Suess' most popular work, even ahead of Cat in the Hat. Dont write this off yet. Will easily play well throughout the holidays. Also, after what we saw with TGD, dont assume Pixar is going to steamroll the competition. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AniNate Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 I'm not assuming anything box office wise. But I know which movie I'm going to be pulling for a lot more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the live action Grinch film which did $260m domestic only did $84m OS and even with inflation and expansion, I don't see it doing more than $100-150m OS although given Illumination don't spend more than $75m on each film, they'll still see it as a success.

I honestly don't care what anyone says, it will have great legs through Christmas (as great as it can considering the massive competition). Still, who wouldn't see a Grinch movie at Christmastime?
