Nutcracker has that weird uncanny valley saccharin artificial look as Oz the Great and Powerful and those Alice in Wonderland films. I find the art style really offputting.
Right at the beginning of the year. Can't wait for Glass.
Mid90s got ok reviews.
I didn't hear anything about it until I saw a poster for it at Hollywood studios. Thought it was a direct to DVD movie at that point. Yikes!So true. Don't think I'd ever even heard of it till seeing the title for this thread and wondering what nutcracker movie came out. Hopefully budget was small!
Thank you it's January!
Venom is pretty much locked to outgross Justice League. It will probably pass Man of Steel and Doctor Strange as well, unless China is super frontloaded.
$200M is dead for Halloween. It might hit $175M.
Aquaman
Opening Weekend Range: $40 – 60 million
The DC cinematic brand will be tested again with the universe's first chapter since last year's Justice League under-performed. A strong contingent of fans are excited for this character's first big-screen solo adventure, while Jason Momoa, Amber Heard, and the ensemble cast should help translate to fair appeal among both men and women.
Social buzz thus far is comparable to Ant-Man and the Wasp, although a less front-loaded run is likely given the time of year. Reviews and word of mouth, as always, will be key for the comic book adaptation, but Aquaman is effectively looking to serve as the top option for moviegoers interested in an action-driven spectacle around the holiday break.
Passing Doctor Strange will be something. Considering that so far most of Venoms meals have been phase 1-2 MCU films, and lower hanging productions like Ant Man and the Wasp. I wonder if Winter Solider could be in play. We'll have an idea when China starts.
I'm shocked that Solo is still getting updated tracking, I wonder if Disney is going to push it to 400m.
Here a question for people:
Aquaman. Over or under Antman and the Wasp?

kwsis is Kylo Ren's altBohemian Rhapsody will make $400M on the low side. So that's two films about 70s music this year that worldwide audiences chose over Solo.
No. It's made clear he's gay, he kisses other men, etc. It also didn't relish in his straight sexual antics. That said due to rating there aren't really any sexual antics at all. It just shows he had early relationship with Mary that formed his linear lasting and most important friendship and that he had both gay lovers and flings.Is it true that Bohemian Rhapsody avoids any kind of gay sexual scenes, while relishing in Freddie's straight sexual antics?

The movie seems conflicted, like it wants to be dark but bubblegum at the same timeThat Nutcracker movie looks like every single generic "kids fantasy movie based on a book that ripped off the Chronicles of Narnia" that we've seen for the past decade.
Watched the trailer (trailer, not teaser) and I still don't know what the fuck the movie's about except for generic "kid gets sucked into a portal and must save both worlds!" bullshit.
I have a feeling about Dec, I think either Bumblebee or Aquaman is going to breakout
People will watch something in December. The final two weeks are some of the biggest movie weeks of the year. It's just a question of what gets picked from the many wide releases.
Nutcracker seemed to have "bomb" written all over. Almost no publicity.
I don't know why Disney just has the darndest ideas and the shittiest luck over the years for their live-action projects outside of their "classic remakes/sequels" roster.
Wasn't the first Alice the next big movie to have 3D after Avatar? I thought that really kicked it into gear as well.Yup.
It worked once, Disney. And Alice 1 had both Johnny Depp's lingering-if-dwindling star power and Tim Burton's lingering-if-dwindling directorial clout to help sell it.

You would think they would've figured it out by now. They clearly still care enough to pursue these.
Yep. All that I am waiting for honestly.
$150 million is still an amazing feat for this type of film.I assume after not a stellar third weekend that the $200M dream for Halloween is dead?
