This movie reminds me way too much of how I was at age 13-14. And that’s a good thing. Love it.
Sigh! Whatever!

Best Pixar movie in nearly a decade.

Saw it today. Definitely a winner!
Good Dinosaur? Only really Lightyear since. Onward is a bit hard to call. The studio has an amazing track record.
Luca and Turning Red ARE hits. They’ve been judged on one single metric by the company and the streaming numbers are gargantuan. They’ve had as much mileage out of those films as Mandalorian. And the latter is a series when things are often looked at as a function of minutes by us - yet these films still track well on that over several years. Disney looks in terms of overall viewership and it’s no contest.
Are they Encanto? No, but Encanto is beyond insane. As is Mario.
This is not a Goofy Movie scenario. The films are somewhere in the half step above Wall-E and Ratatouille in terms of home audience uptake. They were watched and continue to be watched with regularity on their platform. Disney has no trouble recognizing this, I’m not sure why the narrative is the way it is here. Soul was the least of them. Not bad, but middle of the road and had some benefit from being the original free Pixar gift. But it didn’t sustain with kids like the other two.

The bottom line with Hollywood is: did the movie make money? Streaming doesn't make up for a poor box office performance. Let's not use Disney+ as an excuse again...
Anyway, I think that IO2 is this year's Mario. There's a pent-up demand for a bright, colorful, "safe" movie to take the kids to; especially if the film features characters people already know and love. Mario filled the bill last year, and it looks like IO2 will this year.
I'm interested to see if Moana 2 will have similar success this fall. From what I've seen, the animation, despite it being originally intended for TV, looks fine, so maybe no worries there. We'll see.

Biggest Disney movie since Rise of Skywalker and enormously more acclaimed. The movie made $155 million and will likely make well past $400 million domestic and possibly be the first Disney film in 5 years to make a billion worldwide.
Yes. It does. At least, it can. Subscription fees and ad fees pay for those IPs to be able to streamed. And for each content streamed, internal tracking takes place accruing part of the income to what gets streamed.
Not to mention the PPV windows and sublicensing to linear TV and other streamers.
Turning Red, Luca and Soul were direct to streaming. There was no box office. Seriously…

Disney already has Moana 2 (Nov, '24), Zootopia 2 (Nov, '25), Toy Story 5 (June '26) and Frozen 3 (Nov, '26). I bet Encanto 2 and Incredibles 3 will be fast tracked for after those.

Doesn't Avatar 2 count as a Disney film?
