Nah. They wanted a 100 minute cut, which would have tanked the perceived value of the Star Wars brand.

It is pretty crazy that we don't even know the title of the Han Solo movie and it comes out in 10 months.
Han Solo.

Is this seriously the title? Why not go with The Smuggler or literally anything but the character's name

It's not really the title
(yet)
It probably will be though. I'm still pulling for "Scoundrel" or "Scoundrels" or something like that.

It isn't. I mean, it could be, but the title hasn't been announced yet.
edit: Dammit, Bobby beat me.

I don't think they're screening it.
Pretty sure they didn't screen it here in Portland, at least.

Oh good. Scoundrels would be good.

I prefer "Stuck-Up, Half-Witted, Scruffy-Looking Nerfhearder: A Star Wars Story." Rolls off the tongue
Doesn't matter. It has Patrick Steward as Poop. Shit's making a billion.
It's crap and they know it

Yeah and they also have Episode IX and Avengers 4 slated for May '19. Move Episode IX to December and now they're releasing next to Frozen 2. If the goal is to avoid other Disney movies, I'm not sure what option they have.
So Thursday evening I guess?
Usually we can count on some mid-week international reviews, but it looks like this weekend is just the domestic release.

Keep Avengers in May, move Star Wars to December, and Frozen 2 in 2020. It's coming too late as it is.

They have already stretched Frozen pretty thin. The merch needs a boost.
They aren't moving Frozen off the holiday period, no chance.
Wolf Among Us season 2 is coming soon. Maybe we'll see Elsa there as a single mother selling ice cream in New York.

While it is a little late, anyone who says that either doesn't know any girls under the age of, lets say 12, or hasn't been to a Disney theme park recently.

We didn't get the title of Episode VIII until earlier this year, right?
Honestly they might even wait until after December to reveal it. Lucasfilm has yet to be in a situation where they had to market two of their films at the same time, so the May date might be throwing them off.

I still can't believe Frozen 2 is happening. I think it's the first time a Disney Princess film is getting a sequel that isn't DtV.

I'm surprise Frozen was so popular.
I thought Tangled was the better film.
Well, maybe I'm not too surprise.
That would be fantastic.

Oh yeah, I much prefer Tangled.
Can't stand Frozen all that much, especially that song that sounds about as pleasant as nails on a chalkboard.

I haven't watched Frozen yet and I feel like I'm better off waiting twenty years for the live action remake.

Tangled has a better story and likeable cast of characters but Frozen has Let It Go.
I don't like that song but a big reason why the movie is such a huge success is because of the song.

Those other Disney Princess films didn't rake in almost $1.3B in box office.
Oh shit.

I love Frozen, but I'm a gay man so it's part of the contract.

Frozen is also the highest grossing non-Ghibli animated movie in Japan.Those other Disney Princess films didn't rake in almost $1.3B in box office.

I'll have you know, I disliked Let It Go before the rest of GAF did.

This phenomena is a particularly communicable one.
It seems like any film, if exposed long enough, contracts it
I think that Your Name passed it recently. In Yen if not in USD.
That's a shame.

Can't you renegotiate terms?
Indeed. Hell, it only took you guys one day to turn on Valerian.

Shortest love story ever.
This thread saw better attendance than Valerian's opening, so there weren't many people to turn.
Plasticine

In twenty years, when people are posting Valerian gifs on GAF, they'll all claim to have loved the movie from the start.

Maybe with some shock treatment. In the meantime I'll keep blasting "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" in July because that's what we do.
To be fair, I went from "that totally sucked" to "mmmmmaybe it was worth the price of admission" to "eh, it could be worse".

Holy shit, you are right.
Your Name is also the highest grossing 'anime' worldwide with 354 million.
