Remember when Disney attempted to rerelease 3 flops to fight back when Godzilla Minus One shocked the US out of just pure word of mouth and the latter extended its intended 1 week run to full 2 months?

I saw Soul with my mom and we both really enjoyed it.
I remember when it was announced, but what actually happened? Did any of these make money?
it average 1 ticket sold per day, for 1350 theaters
Wow those are some uter shit numbers. My guess is that these films didn't appeal to anyone, and the ones who did want to see it already saw it on D+.
we'll get to see if people love Turning Red on Feb 9th, and Luca on March 22
All of these movies have bene out for years and it is already streaming. The ticket numbers were always going to be very low.
This is just Disney filling the void in their schedules with something to keep their name on the radars of cinema-going people.
Please explain how any of that makes sense. How does ONE person seeing a film in a theater per day "keep their name on the radars of cinema-going people." No one went to see Soul and the only people talking about it on the entire internet is Cinemaphile mocking it in threads like this.
all they're gonna do is piss off theaters who are seeing empty screens for 2 weeks
LOL. I predict almost identical numbers unless Disney goes all out on advertisement.
Also sidenote: I fully expect there's going to be some shake-up in advertisements coming up. My personal theory is that internet ads are way less effective than people thought (even after realizing they're garbage years ago), so it wouldn't shock me if companies like Disney are spending millions on internet ads that are seen by no one and convince no one to see them. So you get films with a budget of 150 million for production, and 100 million advertisement that gets pissed away.
>we'll get to see if people love Turning Red on Feb 9th, and Luca on March 22
The numbers will be exactly the same.
>empty theaters playing films no one knows are playing will keep Disney on the consumer's minds
Yes that makes sense. How about admit that Disney has lost the plot and people are ignoring them?
re-release rarely make money but studios keep doing them anyways during the year.
the last exception i can think of is Avatar.
They typically make SOME money. This literally lost them money. The complete and utter collapse of Disney Box office is one of the biggest unspoken stories so far.
I think we're into some serious cultural change, where many of the big icon studios and media formats are just gonna die.
>biggest unspoken stories so far
its literally the most discussed thing in the last couple of years.
No, it's usually "x film bombed" and each time it's treated like some anomoly. Disney-Pixar animated films haven't made a profit since 2019, and Marvel films are under-performing except a few like Guardians of the Galaxy 3. There's no across the board discussion, which seems like Disney is just dying at the box office and it seems like some kind of cultural shift is catching up to us.
Kids play Palworld, fortnight, rather than watch disney films now. People who watch films are over the age of 25. NO ONE is talking about this, since it means an entire media format is on its way out demographically.
You should seek for a professional, you write like a deranged person.
>projection
Oh well, looks like you aren't going to look for any professional help. Enjoy being a demented homosexual.
>says no one talks shit on Disney
>while writing on Cinemaphile
>while writing on Cinemaphile
>when every youtube grifter and clickbaiter journo has been talking non stop about Disney collapse
>when every Disney related news has xitter going crazy
But most importantly
>vydia analogy
I think you might be moronic.
analogy
It's not an analogy, kids are excited about video games now not Disney shit. There's a genuine cultural shift in the youngest generations away from tv/film towards social media and video games. Most people who watch films are over 25, which granted, is the vast majority of people, but that means that when the youngest generation grows up and becomes the dominant generation they won't have a film-watching habit.
Paying 8 bucks to sit in a giant empty room and stare at a screen for 2 hours is weird out of context.
>8 bucks for a movie
what year is it?
>those two things are related because i said so!
Fricking homosexual, video games weren't invented with Fortnite or the latest flavor of the month. Tying that with a cultural revolution was considered moronic behavior a decade ago and it still is.
Little kids literally have no idea what marvel, Star Wars, or Pixar is. Like no god damn idea. The youngest generation are just not plugged into Disney-shit at all, and the average movie age is over 25 now.
Studios are facing a demographic extinction event as they can't rely upon old people forever, and basically no one is talking about this shift. I think we're right in the midst of it, and after it's done everyone will act like it was super obvious.
>kids prefer video games to movies
>"YEAH NICE VIDYA METAPHOR homosexual"
???
>I think we're into some serious cultural change, where many of the big icon studios and media formats are just gonna die.
Not until the death of the US dollar. As long as these companies produce regime propaganda they will be guaranteed as many freshly printed dollars as necessary to keep their companies afloat.
>They typically make SOME money. This literally lost them money.
surely you have some evidences to sustain your claims. Evidences that i'm sure don't stop at comparing the re-release of a movie to an actual release.
For comparison............ https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl1285456641/
>Japan = $37,754,224
>USA - $56,116,261
Weird, that it made more money in USA than Japan (though japan has half the pop as USA).
Never is a long time. Disney obviously has no idea what they're doing, are panicking, and have no long term plans and are just throwing shit at the wall to see what sticks. But eventually some kind of Star Wars film is gonna come out in theaters. It will certainly under-perform, just we're not sure by how much.
by contrast, Shin made shit money in the US despite being silently given extended runs by Funi due to fan demand, but in japan it made 75M alone, teh rest of the world only made pultry 3M.

Soul premiered in some theaters along with webm related. Turning Red will premier this month and Luca in march.
what the hell is that webm
it's their short film produced by a POC women of color
i think she hates like skin blacks
/pol/'s latest rage subject. How DARE they make stories about people of color, right?
Isnt turning red the literal unironic pedo flagwhistle movie
>flagwhistle
Please explain this term
It's not pedo in that it's supposed to be "adults should screw kids". Instead, it's saying that adults are an oppressive force that stand in the way of teen's growing sexuality and the kids should do as they want. It's standard feminist sex-positive claptrap about how opression should be overthrown and they should be narccisitic sociopathic bawds as they want, which is their ideal.
Yes, if you're suffering from severe brainrot.
It's daycare feminism, and right wingers were over-reacting. But there's barely an analogy where the Red Panda is a clear metaphor for puberty, menstruation, and puberty induced sex drive. The message is that parents are in the wrong for trying to reign in their daughter's budding sexuality and is in-line with sex positive feminist thinking. It's trying to get them used to it so they can learn more as they get older.
To pretend that there's nothing there, and it's all just some over-reaction of crazies, is a standard leftist tactic. Leftists are some of the most dishonest people in the entire world.
All societies / religions OTHER than Western society and Christians / Catholics have a form of Taqiyya written into their code. Where lying is just permissable to advance their agenda. That's why everything is such a gaslighting paleactice these days.
Frick is wrong with pic4ants mate?
Can you as a Disney employee Cinemaphile poster tell me how Disney lost control of the narrative so completely? The majority of parents now see your films as unsafe for children.
Sex with luca
All 3 looks ai generated somehow
Did disney have ai before ai?
The absolute state of /tv.
Did you watch Minus Color in time?
i watched the ziller movie in theaters with my dad
i thought it was decent, not a masterpiece
the ending was way past cheesy, but some of the other parts of the movie were great
the most impressive part is what they did with only 15 million or whatever it was
I watched the last showing at my local theater today.
Do you feel a bittersweet feel? i could only afford to watch it once on my local theater, and to tell you the truth, i already pirated the film once, but swore to see it on the big screen once it got an official release in mexico, and i couldn't for 2 weeks due to illness, but my dad and i went 2 weeks ago, and it was a treat.
I wished the black and White version got released here but it didn't, i would love to see it again.
I only saw the black and white version and liked it so much I'm not sad about missing the color one anymore.
i meant in general, regardless of which version you saw.
but yeah, minus one was one of those films in a lifetime that actually deserves, and asks you, not demand, but asks you to see it on the big screen.
I didn't, I'd rather watch it in color for my 1st viewing. Did I already miss the color release in the US???
Pretty sure there's no more color showings either but wouldn't surprise me if they bring it back with a d*b
Soul hasn't even pass 1M with their rerelease
One of Luca's directors (the one who made that short with Alberto) "confirmed" Luca and Alberto as gay by posting doodles of them as a couple. Fujos are known for spending money in useless junk just to "support" their favorite ship even if it isn't canon, so I can see Luca making more money than the other two films.
There was a Cinemaphile poster that said Luca looked like a film made by someone who got molested and liked it. So it being made by Fujos who schlick at the thought of these boys ass fricking each other makes sense.
Funnily enough, the lead director is male and claimed the movie was based on his childhood but that nothing gay happened to him or to his characters. The one who directed the short and made the gay art was a woman.
>little boys can't just be friends cause grown women want them to frick

For some reason spicsare the biggest supportersof this ship.
EXTREMELY based and hopefully they make a sequel where their cute bodies get to press against each other while they cuddle in each other's arms.
The complese collapse of Disney is shocking to even me. I figured their cultists would eat up any shit thrown at them. The real test is Star Wars, as they are moving back to theater films in the future, but these films are at least going to dud.
What happens if Star Wars 9 makes 100 million domestic versus a 350 million dollar budget? Solo bombing was portrayed as a fluke that wont' happen again.
Star Wars is never having another movie. Movies are announced for earnings reports and are quietly shelved.
>I figured their cultists would eat up any shit thrown at them.
They still do, there just isn't enough of them to make any difference.
The hardcore cultist Disney Adults are cash cows that Disney has been pandering to since they are childless 20-40 somethings with too much cash and too much time on their hands, but proportionately normies and conservatives are their main demographic. Normies tuned out because Disney got lame and aren't events anymore. Normies are the most fickle group ever, and hold no strong political positions and don't think deeply about anything. They're like someone with ADHD. Conservatives are Catholics, Evangelicals, Protestants, immigrants, and they want wholesome "family" films like Disney used to make. They alienated them.
Is Disney done?
>Turning Red
Sounds like Communist gobbledyasiatic.
Only Soul has soul
>STOP WATCHING OUR FILMS YOU FRICKING NAZI CHUDS
ok
>NO YOU FRICKING NAZI CHUDS WHY DIDN'T YOU WATCH OUR FILMS?!
Kids want to see some fun moobies with good moral message, not some childless millennial rant about pessimism, how their life sucks, and le allegory about this and that
