Re: BEAUTY AND THE BEAST *$180 MILLION OW* Club
A Jurassic World opening would sure surprise the fuck out of me.
The signs are certainly pointing to something humongous though... and this is definitely obliterating the hell out of Jungle Book.

I really think this is going to get bad WOM to stop it from 400+. 130/ 350 million.

Re: BEAUTY AND THE BEAST *$180 MILLION OW* Club
Well a question then; if Beast makes $200m ow then what does Lion King open to? Cause Lion King is bigger than Beast. Is that gonna easily topple Force Awakens?
I'm actually gonna lower my prediction to $115m ow and continue to say the 90s sucked with pop culture.

The Lion King can't be done in live action. There are no humans.

Re: BEAUTY AND THE BEAST *$180 MILLION OW* Club
I don't know, I feel like a "live action" Lion King would be so fucking pointless. It would do very well of course, but I don''t necessarily think the demand would be significantly moreso.

Re: BEAUTY AND THE BEAST *$180 MILLION OW* Club
James Monroe Iglehart, who has played the Genie in the Broadway adaptation of Aladdin since it started (his last performance is actually tomorrow I think) did a great job with honoring Williams's original character while also making the role his own.

Re: BEAUTY AND THE BEAST *$180 MILLION OW* Club
its presales are ahead of Civil War last year. So 200m looks likely at this point.

Re: BEAUTY AND THE BEAST *$180 MILLION OW* Club
Isn't this film closer to the Twilight franchise in terms of conclusions based on its pre-sales? As in, the audience will be heavily female and therefore is expected to be frontloaded? I don't see any four-quadrant appeal.
