the more i see trailers for this the more I think it'll do more than Les Mis. This is really riding on if the new trailer with actual singing is good but I'm in.

If the next trailer is good, I will raise this to a Into the Woods>Chicago club. Maybe even a Into the Woods> Grease club.

I think you meant to put >

I just feel good about this.

What does it need to beat to get that crown?

Chicago's 170? And if it was to get biggest live-action musical ever it'd have to beat Grease's 188. I dunno about that but Disney has been on a roll.

Grease was a movie first, right? So it doesn't count as a "Broadway Musical Adaptation"..

I don't think it can make $170m.

No, Grease was a Broadway musical first. Yes, Grease is the film to beat. But I think with the Disney brand, the cast, the similar look to other live action fairy tales they made like Maleficent and Alice, and hopeful good WOM and Oscar buzz that it will finally fall.

I don't think it will beat it. I see this making about the same numbers as Les Miserables, which would be great.

I'm not saying it will definitely happen. That's why its a prediction. If this doesn't get the job done, a Wicked movie certainly will. That IMO would have 250+ million potential.

Hopefully Disney will release another trailer soon. Maybe with Alexander.

If this happens, I am amazing. This looks so great. Anyone who joined at >Annie or 150 million want to drop out?

One person in each of those covers looks absolutely ridiculous. Depp looks like a fool.

Depp looks great. I'm glad they went more theatrical and didn't try to make him look like an actual wolf. It would have been cheesier. I was hoping they would keep him out of the marketing though for a surprise. Oh well.

Haters gonna hate, I like Depp's new wolfy look

I don't think he looks "bad", but ehh... I was hoping the reason they hadn't shown his face in the trailers yet was due to him having a more wolf-like appearance that wasn't complete. His attire looks like something from a general costume shop honestly.

making him look like an actual wolf would have been cheesier.

Everything of what we've seen from this movie so far feels cheesy

Nope. This would be LUCKY to make as much as Les Mis.

This is going to be huge.

New trailer is kind of a mess. Absolutely no focus on anything. And the singing is not too exciting. Don't see this happening, doesn't look like it'll have any oscar help either. I think 100 million is possible, but I do think Annie still will have a great chance to overtake this (And this can do sub 80)

13-17 OW (26-33 4Day)
80-100 total

No Oscar help? Most places are predicting it to be nominated for Picture. I also wouldn't count out Streep, Blunt or Cordon on being nominated and it will have tech nominations. Also the prescreenings have gotten great reviews.

If you can show sources for these "great reviews" that would be swell.

Don't argue with thegun. Its a lost cause.

I don't know, I feel like it could go either way. Les Mis definitely had bigger buzz going into the holiday season, but then again this looks like the movie to see on Christmas.
