Moana. It's coming this winter.
I hope it does really well, but Frozen seemed like such a freak of nature. Nobody expected Frozen to become as huge as it became prior to release. Nobody knows how the first princess movie post-Frozen will do.

i see what you're saying. I think Nemo did like $100+ Japan.
i just think Finding Dory is gonna do insane numbers... Nemo + Ellen are just way too popular, and even tho the demo's grown up some they're STILL in play. I know so many older peeps w/o kids anticipating Finding Dory... gonna be ridiculous.
lowkey rooting for it to do big things (because Hawaii! <3) but no, I don't expect much from it >_<

I think that's a safe assumption.
Damn Disney. I'm in for all of those.
That's fair. I'm not good at estimates, but it's a Disney princess movie coming out in November. It'll probably not do it, but who knows. I hope it's great, from what we've seen it looks amazing.
I agree. I'm just not going to be surprised if it takes off.
I say more than Tangled but less than Frozen.
MORE than a chance. I'd say Zootopia would have to absolutely bomb in Japan for it to miss that mark.
Which is great. Zootopia deserves every penny it gets.
I reckon big domestic but not great international grosses.

I wanna know who else remembers that My Big Fat Greek Wedding had a tv show.
I actually predict the opposite. I think it'll do alright domestically, but international audiences have been absolutely gobbling up Disney films lately. Frozen was huge in Japan, and Zootopia is causing raves in China right now.
No idea, but if Disney just doesn't screw it up, I think they can count on the intentional haul being impressive. At least, I sure hope so. Disney's been on such a roll lately.

HOLY SHIT, what!!!? Disney's doing Ghost in the Shell?
So, before pregnant Batman and a wall of Divergent gifs locked the last thread, I was talking about the possibility of Superhero films passing $4B worldwide this year.
I completely forgot to include Suicide Squad. Even with BvS coming in $100M lower than we were thinking a few days ago, Civil War, X-Men Apocalypse, Doc Strange, and Suicide Squad should still be able to collectively gross the $2.4B needed to hit that mark (assuming $775M for Deadpool and at least $825M for BvS).

Paramount acquired distribution rights for domestic release; but yes, it's still in motion
Looking at the full week picture makes its run even more remarkable. It's had drops of 23%, 25% and 28%.
Sounds like fatigue to me.
Next week's drops will be steeper since this week was inflated.
I also wouldn't be too surprised to see Zootopia dip under $20M with the actuals.
That said, next weekend should still be over $15M.
Paramount holds the distribution rights worldwide. Dreamworks' deal with Disney expires in August.Paramount acquired distribution rights for domestic release; but yes, it's still in motion

Alice, Pete's Dragon and BFG has the potential to bomb.

Awesome post man. Ever since I saw Zootopia I've been wanting to watch it again. I have the inclination to put it at the top of my animated movies list. But I need the Blu Ray first to be sure of it. Can't wait for that release.
I really hope Zootopia can get a best picture nomination. But I won't hold my breath.

Im in the same boat. Apparently we are outliers but I didn't find the film nearly as impressive as everyone else. I mean it wasn't bad, I enjoyed it and all. But it didn't blow me away by any means. That said Frozen didn't do a whole lot for me either. I guess I'm just not super receptive to modern animated films so much.

It's Disney's world. We're just living in it.
Rogue One, GitS, SW8, Guardians 2 and Toy Story 4 during the winter months. Take my money now.
Alice? The sequel to the movie that made over a billion dollars? Really?
A live action remake like Disney has been doing to their properties for a while now.
The RT rating doesn't mean it "scored" a 99%, but rather 99% of the reviewers though the film was good/worth recommending. While it did get a strong reception overall a lot of the reviews were in the 3/5 or 4/5 range. The average critical rating was 8.1/10.
Wait what? And it's coming in less than a year? And there hasn't been anything shown of it yet? Or am I just a hermit? EDIT: Oh fuck, it's the one with Emma Watson. I do know about this.

Who would have thought that Zootopia would have a chance at passing $1 billion?
I thought BvS would dominate but it's sinking harder than the titanic.
If I was a WB exec I would panicking right now.
It looks like Disney is gonna dominate 2016.

Live action remake along the lines of Cinderella and The Jungle Book - starring Emma Watson, Dan Stevens and Luke Evans.

Deadpool, the R-rated movie that Fox tried their hardest not to make and Slayven said would bomb hard, is now officially the highest grossing X-men movie ever.
Because RT is a yes or no... Inside Out has an average score of 9 on RT whereas Zootopia is 8.1.
99RT is not the same as 99/100.

I shall skip Finest Hours and Alice through the looking Glass.
Yeah I just completely forgot that existed for some reason.
