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

    Longlegs could be the surprise of the year for me… I had no sense of that kind of buzz… especially with horror underperforming this year… huge win for Neon

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

    Ahhh… yeah I got you… stupid auto correct I work with a bunch of Star wars fans… who still make appointment television for the Disney plus shows… but I don’t consider any of those as Water cooler shows… even the Mandalorian… none of them to my knowledge watched Squid Game… I do know a couple of...

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

    What does this mean… I was referring to Game of Thorns… if you are referring to House of Dragon… that is not a Water Cooler show IMO Squid Game was a popular show, but not a water cooler show… I only know a couple of people who watched Squid Game in real life…. A water cooler show transcends...

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

    Tiger King was also just before studios were all in on streaming…I stand by my statement… I don’t think we will have a water cooler show on the level of a Game of Thorns or Seinfeld ever again…, perhaps water cooler moments… As I would argue…. Mandalorian was a popular show but not to that...

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

    I don’t think there will ever be a water cooler show again… there is just too much content competition…Sure people can talk about popular shows like Fallout or The Boys or whatever… but I don’t think any show has reached Water Cooler status since Game of Thorns… something the whole world is...

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

    I believe that Box office is tough to weigh how successful a studio feels a film is doing… Surely Inside Out is a success and Horizons is a failure… but what about the inbbetween Fly Me to The Moon had a one hundred million production budget… surely it is not expected to make it’s budget back…...

    SPOILER: The Acolyte -- Disney+ Star Wars -- begins June 5, 2024

    I also have not minded the way the story has played out….I have always liked slow build ups through….I feel as some expect too much wall to wall action… I actually thought this episode was interesting… there were some points they were not ready to divulge yet as it is a mystery… I saw it as...

    SPOILER: The Acolyte -- Disney+ Star Wars -- begins June 5, 2024

    82% critics score on rotten tomatoes… and it’s tough to take the audience score seriously… when there was a decent portion rooting for it to fail before it began… in real life I have heard just as many complaints about Andor(It’s boring)….. I disagreed… Andor was my favorite of the live action...

    Is attendance really down at WDW this or…

    I grew up in Florida….my body never adjusted….It‘s why I moved to Wisconsin in my 30’s and will not ever vacation in Fl in the summer

    Wish (Walt Disney Animation - November 2023)

    Most of your average Disney fans see Pixar as Disney… every Pixar movie they have ever seen has come from Disney… so saying people only see Disney as a girl brand is false

    Universal Mega Movie Parade

    Perhaps my expectations were too high…. But when Universal kept touting the State Puff Marshmallow Man for the Ghostbuster section… I was expecting it to be their answer to the Dragon in FOF at magic Kingdom… some new tech Marvel which we would all be amazed… but it was just attached to the...

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

    A Quiet Place was announced it is going to PVOD a month after it’s release… That is crazy… especially announcing it so early after having a good opening weekend and decent word of mouth for a Horror pic…. Sure to deter some to wait… seems Disney is one of the smartest with their theatrical...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    Did you miss my post where I am against the Poly tower too… another Marriott wannabe

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    I have stayed in some nice stunning beautiful Marriott’s… My brother use to work for the company… so I could stay at the higher end Marriotts at no charge… and some are very beautiful… so yes… it looks like a beautiful hotel… but that does not prevent it from still looking like a hotel against a...

    Moana 2 (Disney Animation - November 2024)

    Also if it is good and has strong word of mouth might soften the blow once Moana 2 opens

    Live-Action ‘Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs’

    Oh that’s too bad… since you must of already seen the film to know that it is not even fit for streaming

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    I am also against the poly tower and Riviera…. They all seem like Mariott and Hilton ripoffs…. Where is the creativity…. That was my point…. People complain about the Disney ones and praise the new Epic Universe hotel…I will say I have never been to Tokyo DisneySea… but from what I have seen in...

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    I did not mean to say walking through… I know there is a separate theme park entrance for day guests… that does not prevent from being a gaudy hotel at the front of the park… that people would be complaining about Disney sla Rivuera…. But it seems people only care about themeing with Disney

    Universal Epic Universe (South Expansion Complex) - Opens May 22 2025

    I have to agree…If this was Disney people would be complaining about walking through a Marriott style hotel at the entrance…and that would be from the moment the first designs were available…. but it gets a pass because universal
