    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    Zootopia 2 simply over performed in China. It's a decent movie. Nowhere near worth of being the highest grossing American animated film of all time, but whatever. Happy for those involved that it's doing well.

    3rd Pandora ride coming soon?

    I think Pandora could use another E-ticket. As great as it is, there's a lot of untapped potential. I feel one more ride with a lot of animatronics and possibly a walkthrough attraction where we can meet the creatures of Pandora would be great.

    Avatar (the movie) and its Sequels

    I think if they eliminated the Tulkun hunting subplot from Fire and Ash (which had already been explored at length in The Way of Water), they could have dedicated more screen time to the Ash people and they could have had the final battle take place somewhere other than the ocean.

    Avatar (the movie) and its Sequels

    I feel that Avatar: Fire and Ash was never boring, but that it did FEEL like a 3 hour movie, whereas with The Way of Water I felt like only 2 hours had gone by. Probably because Fire and Ash is much more plot heavy than The Way of Water, which dedicated much of its runtime to the characters...

    Avatar (the movie) and its Sequels

    It's also in Disney's interest to keep the franchise alive for the sake of the presence of Pandora: The World of Avatar in the parks.

    Avatar (the movie) and its Sequels

    Oona Chaplin's Varang stole the show and is easily the most entertaining character in all three films. I was disappointed she wasn't the main villain in this movie, but it's possible they were introducing her here for her to step up into the "Big Bad" role for Avatar 4. While Quaritch will...

    Avatar (the movie) and its Sequels

    I saw Fire and Ash in Dolby 3D and didn't notice the high frame rate issue people are talking about (I DID notice it in The Way of Water). I liked the movie, but do think it's crucial people see and remember the events of The Way of Water, as it's very much a direct continuation to that film...

    Hopefully the Netflix acquisition is stopped. It would be terrible for the industry and for movie theaters.

    Avatar (the movie) and its Sequels

    That entire category made no sense: Avatar was nominated for box office achievement ... despite not even being released yet! Kpop Demon Hunters was nominated ... despite being a predominantly streaming movie and released by a company (Netflix) that seems determined to eradicate movie theaters...

    Avatar (the movie) and its Sequels

    Nah, Titanic is a perfectly paced film. Avatar: The Way of Water does feel long, but it may have needed a script rewrite to be shorter. A lot of the scenes that FEEL like filler end up paying off or setting up something important later on so there isn't too much that could be removed from the...

    Zootopia 2 was fine. I was entertained and it was well made. It just doesn't at all reach the high standard set by the first movie. It'd compare it to Incredibles 2 where it's a solid time at the movies, but it's no classic like its predecessor. I think it will do well at the box office...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    Definitely not. They would have had to cut about 90 minutes to two hours worth of content to get it into one movie, and that would have likely hurt the emotional investment people had in the characters. Furthermore, a lot of the complaints people have about "Wicked: For Good" are just...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    I had no major issues with the pacing of Wicked: For Good. I do think, however, that the somber tone of it will make it less of a crowd pleaser. I suspect Wicked: For Good will play better once people can watch the first one and it back-to-back as they balance each other out nicely. I had a...

    Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

    I saw the movie last night as well. While I think it's as good in quality as part 1, I don't know if it will have the rewatchability factor of the first part in movie theaters. Having never seen the Broadway show before, I was surprised and how unrelentingly sad and dark the second part was...

    Live-Action reimagining of Moana

    So if they can't make the movie much more visually interesting, it really has no reason to exist other than creative bankruptcy and Disney's desire to increase its earnings to appease shareholders. This is not art. It disgusts me in the same way the How to Train Your Dragon remake did, only...
