@Alberto9Herrera @mviefrk_108 He should step down as leader, get somebody else

@mviefrk_108 Docter has the excuse that he can’t direct anymore now that he is Pixar’s leader. Plus, the films directed by Pixar’s own in-house directors would have other writers. Incredibles however, came from an outside director who writes the scripts and directs them. (1/2)

Maybe this is a hot take but I would like to see another director take on this franchise, I don’t really need to see Brad Bird return and I don’t think he needs to be the only one who can direct these movies. If People can be ok with Pete Doctor not returning to direct any of the sequels to his movies why can’t we give Incredibles to someone else

@DisneyScoopGuy @cosmic_marvel Well which is more important

@cosmic_marvel Streaming is killing the theater industry

Pixar’s ‘INSIDE OUT 2’ will get a 100-day theatrical run before releasing on Disney+ (via bloomberg.com/news/features/…)

@AKlay19 Let's be realistic, bob iger acquired pixar in 2006 just to get "john lasseter" apart of disney, I mean john lasseter was pixar, and then bob iger and disney as a whole disgustingly fires him,

@jamesshaun2002 It may be less worth it nowadays unless Pixar really bounces back at the box office again. I’m just saying that their mindset of doing it was at least backed by the results of their movies.

This is all quite disappointing.

@AKlay19 I'm so glad that disney is now animating moana 2 in canada, I hope more disney movies are animated in canada, rather than california, and also disney are losing tax breaks, teenage mutant ninja turtles was animated both in France and canada, disney should do the same

@AKlay19 No, $200m is not worth it...$50m-$100m is reasonable, but the biggest problem is disney is choosing to animate fully inhouse at california...there is animation studios in canada, UK and French who'd love to animate a disney movie, but disney isn't allowing it....

@rumcoat @NeilNevins How did it screw them over, what's screwing them over is having stupid $200m budgets....

@NeilNevins i knew when they dumped those movies onto disney+ it was screw them over long term

Disney shit the bed with Pixar so bad it’s maddening. Luca and Turning Red had massive appeal and got great numbers on D+. The problem isn’t their autobiographical nature. It’s that Disney made them free and conditioned audiences to expect it going forward.

@AKlay19 Isn't all animation dull kiddie fare...

#TheGarfieldMovie is not good. It’s a shame because it can be cute (especially with Odie) and starts out as zany fun. But it devolves into dull, groan-worthy kiddie fare that’s as lazy as its titular cat. I suppose it’s harmless for small kids, but they can do better than this.

@HollywoodHandle @THR Yes, finally disney will stop making $200m....$50m-$75m is the right amount.....you've come to your sense disney..... congratulations

‘CAPTAIN AMERICA: BRAVE NEW WORLD’ will cost “significantly” less than ‘THE MARVELS.’ (Via: @THR)

@AKlay19 @EDouglasWW @BillBrasky2620 But you know disney probably spend 200m on this film....its like their other movie strange world made $73m worldwide than elemental comes out later with a $200m budget, its not good business, they are just putting money down the drain, they Need to stop over paying people

@EDouglasWW @BillBrasky2620 Yeah I’m betting big on INSIDE OUT 2. I think it can outdo what the original made.

This is going to be a weird June at the box office. There's going to be so much pressure on INSIDE OUT 2 to overperform and have a $100M opening, which seems an unfair expectation to place on it, given how Pixar's last 2 movies did in this timeframe.

@ColinBest1978 @Luiz_Fernando_J Every single movie is pirated

@jamesshaun2002 @Luiz_Fernando_J As with any digital release,it's also simple to pirate in perfect quality so there's lots of lost revenue right there.

Against all odds, #TheFallGuy is posting strong legs at US #BoxOffice thanks to its positive WOM! #RyanGosling & #EmilyBlunt’s action romcom grossed solid 565k on 4th WED, just a -23.5% drop from last WED, (vs #TheLostCity 596k, -19.5% #BulletTrain 525k, -34.5%) And that despite its release on digital with 20 extra minutes last TUE & after losing -890 theatres last FRI due to that. The action romcom hits a 75.5M cume in the U.S. Eyeing a 85M-95M run in the U.S.

@DEADLINE What is disney and abc replacing it with

After 7 seasons, the time has finally come to say goodbye to Seattle's hardest-working firefighters on ABC's #Station19. Read the finale recap here. deadline.com/2024/05/statio…

@DEADLINE We need studios and networks to go back to the 22-24 episodes per season...remember at the start of a shows 5th season they reach the 100 episode mark, now its 7 or 8 season their reach the 100 episodes

At the end of #GreysAnatomy's Season 20 finale, most doctors and all interns found themselves at career crossroads, with their jobs at Grey Sloan in limbo deadline.com/2024/05/greys-…

@SeanNyberg @MattBelloni We saw it with lightyear it was tracking for a $70-$75m+ weekend, but it actually made $50.6m....so yeah box office tracking is never right lol...could be lower, higher could be 25m off...

Inside Out 2 now tracking for $85M domestic debut, per NRG numbers. That’ll go up, right? First one opened to $90M in 2015.

@ErickWeber Barbie got a 53 day window...LOL

Paramount gave #TopGunMaverick 120-day theatrical window & look what happened 💰💰💰💰💰

@Variety Hopefully he won't physically assault them

Will Smith greets the crowd at the Los Angeles premiere of “Bad Boys: Ride or Die.”

@EmpireCityBO @Kung_Fu_Cthulhu @Luiz_Fernando_J They don't spend 200m like disney....elemental, wish, marvels, little mermaid and indiana jones all $200m+ films,

@jamesshaun2002 @Kung_Fu_Cthulhu @Luiz_Fernando_J What the fuck are you talking about? The same Universal that makes the Jurassic Park and Fast & Furious movies doesn't spend $200m on films?

@EmpireCityBO @Kung_Fu_Cthulhu @Luiz_Fernando_J I'm saying unlike disney universal doesn't spend 200m on films

@jamesshaun2002 @Kung_Fu_Cthulhu @Luiz_Fernando_J What the fuck is your point?

@EmpireCityBO @Kung_Fu_Cthulhu @Luiz_Fernando_J But saying that universal doesn't make much $200m now....night swim was $15m, kung fu panda 4 was $85m, monkey man was $10m, abigail was 28m and fall guy was $130m....

@jamesshaun2002 @Kung_Fu_Cthulhu @Luiz_Fernando_J Why was nearly every studio and production company making movies for streaming the last few years dumping billions into it and now have almost all stopped or cut back dramatically including Netflix? Universal is the last one to jump off the train. Simple as that.

@EmpireCityBO @Kung_Fu_Cthulhu @Luiz_Fernando_J So why is universal still doing the 17/30 day window the, ..night swim, monkey man and fall guy was released 17 days after release, while kung fu panda 4 was 30 days...

@jamesshaun2002 @Kung_Fu_Cthulhu @Luiz_Fernando_J Theaters agreed to that under extreme duress and the overwhelming data shows that a minimum of 60 days with.... and this is the key.... no prior announcement of when it hits PVOD.
