Yes, Chicken Little did better at the box office. But it’s also the worst animated film Disney has ever made, and far, far lower in quality than Wish. Which metric matters more to you as a Disney fan: quality or box-office earnings?
Sure, but it’s not like Disney hasn’t gone through slumps before. They’ve lost money on a number of films in the past, including some that are now regarded as masterpieces (not that I’m saying that’ll happen to Wish). I just find it weird that a Disney fan would invoke Chicken Little as something that paints Wish in a bad light. It really doesn’t.
As I mentioned in the post you quoted it doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things.
I appreciate you’re trying to assure me, thanks, but right now, I can’t help it. I’ll try to control it, but like I said, I can’t help it right now.
Of that list, The Emperor's New Groove is one of my favorites. I'm surprised that Brother Bear did better than Lilo & Stitch. Where is our Brother Bear ride?
Do you think Brother Bear was as enjoyable and impactful a film as The Princess and the Frog?
This isn’t that surprising, Disney has a bit of a history with a 10 year boom bust cycle.
We're almost half way there.....This isn’t that surprising, Disney has a bit of a history with a 10 year boom bust cycle.
80s were bad, 90s great, 00s bad, 10s great… I can’t wait til the 2030s.
2023 is over for Disney, they can't lose anymore money. They can only lessen whatever losses there will be with whatever is left in the tank on these movies. So no need for a continual countdown of the box office.
I liked it too. Its only weakness was Runt the pig. TOO fat, and most of his jokes didn't land. But otherwise, it is, as you say, a silly, fun movie, with lots of heart. AND it was a box-office hit, by the way. It was the Little movie that could - and did.
You and my son could hang.
Silly fun is way too far down on the priority list these days.
I love silly fun! That’s not at all the issue I have with Chicken Little.
