Big Hero 6

[RandomPrincess]

A few observations :
Surprised that the audience I was with was almost 50/50 boys AND girls. I would have guessed 75/25.

.

Baymax is gender neutral and Honey Lemon and Gogo are appealing to girls. My daughter is 5 and loved the movie and was excited to see it. She loved Baymax before we saw the film from the commercials. We asked her if Frozen or Big Hero 6 was better and she said she liked them both the same. She was a big Frozen fan and even dresses up as Elsa for Halloween.

Can we please stop with the "boys movie" vs "girls movie" BS?

They're Disney movies, made for everyone, as they always have been.

If boys like Olaf and girls like Baymax, it's hardly a surprise.

I am super glad girls will love this film. Honey lemon and Gogo are great characters for girls to look up too! It's a shame you can't meet the whole team at the parks.

Also, rating an animated film made for everyone on how much boys or girls will like it diminishes the merits of the film. Yeah, kids will like this and Frozen, but most will also like the latest turd Dreamworks craps out because young kids are easily entertained and don't have any concept of quality film making.

Yeah, I wasnt really saying it was a "boy" or not an "everybody" movie, just that I was suprised that it was an even split. In fact, I think its a GREAT thing.

Yeah, not surprised. Guardians of the Galaxy had a similar gender breakdown. Chicks dig Groot.

Took my 5 and 3 year old girls today. They liked it, but I loved it. Great story, animation, humor, and emotion.

I liked Ralph and Frozen but enjoyed Tangled more than both of those. Also love the Lego movie, which gets funnier each time I watch it.

BH6 just did a really good job of really having it all for the whole family.

Saw it tonight. The movie is just flat out fun. Both the movie's humor and heart had me on the verge of tearing up. The animation is impressive and some scenes really evoke the same feel of a live-action Marvel film. Truly something for everybody.

I was not a fan of the lego film. Thought it was a robot chicken sketch for kids that went on way too long.

I couldn't put my finger on it at the time but you're right. The film's robot chicken, herky jerky, visuals gave me a headache after about 15 minutes until I hit eject on the ol' Blu ray player. I Red Boxed it after I heard good reviews. At least it only cost me a buck fifty.

Lego movie was vastly overrated! Kids loved it, but as an adult, I hated it.

Let's face it, if Honey Lemon were in the parks, I'd hug her and NEVER let go!

She's my baby!

I saw BH6 earlier today and loved it. I'm so heading to DHS for the Baymax and Hiro m&g

 

[FoozieBear]

So awesome to see that everyone loved this film as much as I did! This is the most fun I've ever had in a movie theater in a long time. It deserves every dollar it earns.

I'm of the strong opinion that adults will get more out of LEGO than kids will. Similar to how adults will get more out of Toy Story 3.

I would love to see her in the parks! Honey lemon was fantastic!

I'd love to meet her and Fred. I see quite a bit of myself in Fred, and I don't know if that's good or bad.

Is that because your father is, well, y'know?

Eh, no; my father passed away a few years back. More like appreciating science without having any desire or talent for it, instead wisely investing my time in comic books and other nerdery.

From Entrainment Weekly -

Audiences were slightly more interested in visiting Disney’s San Fransokyo than Christopher Nolan’s outer space this weekend, as Big Hero 6 ($56.2 million) nabbed the No. 1 spot over Interstellar ($50 million).

Interstellar made its IMAX debut Nov. 5 ahead of its wide release on Nov. 7. In those first two days, the film took in $2.2 million and set the pace on Friday evening with $17 million to Big Hero 6‘s $15.8 million. But Big Hero 6 benefited from families heading to the theater on Saturday–and from those who aren’t parents heading to the theater throughout the weekend.

“It really is something that’s as appealing for an older audience as it is for a younger audience,” Dave Hollis, executive vice president of theatrical exhibition sales and distribution at Disney, told EW. “Audience demos that we dive in and take a look at are encouraging in that big portions of our audience are the not-a-parent range.”

Interstellar has some challenges: At 169 minutes, it’s long. And while it’s mostly appropriate for all ages, the film includes a lot of science-talk that young kids may not be thrilled by. Big Hero 6, on the other hand, doesn’t require any previous knowledge of gravity equations or black holes.
