Surprisingly good movie, but when your starting point for general audiences is "I'm not interested and nothing you're selling is changing my mind," it's a near-insurmountable uphill battle.
For Best Animated Feature at the Oscars? Quite possibly.
Yup. $46 million overseas, with 75% of the marketplace accounted for thus far.
It's great as an added value element but won't turn a flop into a hit.
$80 million versus $97 million
Exactly!!
In 1996, Twister was among the biggest global grossers of all time.
And to think... TWISTERS was playing just down the hall. :-/
Thanks! My son liked it more than I did, which is A) allowed and B) frankly preferred compared to the opposite.
You're a bit late, Josh (and Scott)...
