Not according to their earnings call.
They were very satisfied with its performance, especially in comparison to The Last Knight.
Things nowadays move so fast for me that I didn't even notice that Incredibles 2 was suddenly this huge disappointment.
Compared to the first one, it's just kinda there. It's fine, but doesn't make the statement that the first one does.
I'm pretty sure Paramount is very satisfied with any movie they released that didn't lose money in the past few years.
Sadly, I once again failed to make it to the times today for Lego Movie 2.
Going to attempt to go sometime tomorrow. Hopefully.

I've heard good things about Alita and I'm now tempted to go check it out. Yay or nay? RT is at 59% last time I checked which doesn't really motivate me to go.
For a movie that made over 1.2 billion dollars, Incredibles 2 feels like it just came and went without any fanfare.
That's honestly a lot higher than I was expecting.
Go see it. It has problems, but it's still extremely entertaining with flashes of brilliance.
It's a meh movie. I liked it well enough, but it's clear that Bird's heart wasn't on it and that it was just a way to get an easy win after Tomorrowland.
Btw, I actually liked Alita, which was kinda surprising to me given the reviews. Hope it does well enough to get a sequel.
I actually really liked Incredibles 2. Though I would agree that it has nothing on Spider-Verse.
Kinda hard to gauge this. It was massive at the box office and was a huge summer tent pole.
It was... Ok?
Aside from the kick-ass motorcycle pursuit, nothing really stood out tbh (ok, Jack Jack vs Raccoon was pretty funny).
I honestly think that starting right where they left the first off, and having yet another rich magnate with a super-hero obsession based in a past trauma plot was just retreading old grounds.
Introducing a bunch of new supers who have lived under cover and the push to repeal the Anti Hero act should have been a lot more epic imo.
Edna Mode and Jack Jack we're not enough in that way.
On the side, although I was glad to see a Woman empowerment theme, I think it didn't need to be made by making the men into borderline morons (the brother and Mr Incredible - pushing him even into resentful & pretentious jackass territory).
Get fucked Disney. Churning out same-y milquetoast animation since Up and expecting to win all awards cuz they're Disney.
Disclaimer: Did not watch Incredibles 2. Am mad.
Obviously didn't watch Inside Out or Coco either.

I don't think he is. He didn't have a credited role in the last one, either.
He appeared in the post credits sequence. Did you sit through the credits?
I stand corrected, I heard the reverse and didn't know they had a call.
Don't use that term, It just comes off wrong
No, but as BoxOfficeMojo doesn't add Infinity War to Sam's grosses, they won't add this one. He's not even listed in the cast on IMDB.
I know. I hate it when a company puts out stuff that is too popular and loved by the masses and critics as well.
So wait, this Fighting with my Family movie is really that good huh? Critic and audience scores are through the roof.
That's meaningless. Endgame is heavily under wraps. We have no idea if Jackson's role will be more substantial than a cameo.

From Mortal Engines bomb to potential Ready Player One surprise. What a time.
Cameron cracked it.
People just really like weird-looking people with big eyes.
