Hollywood accounting: you're doing it wrong. - Bari Seldon Aug 9, 12:26
I'm glad it's going to turn a slight theatrical profit, but that same article makes me worried for Pixar's long term survival. - Inigo Aug 9, 11:39 4
- It's not coincidental that Disney announced all the IP-based sequels a while back. They want cost certainty, even though... - David Aug 9, 11:50
- it's Pixar's process that takes longer than the other studios. it's the process that produces billion-dollar home runs 3 out of 4 times - hollywood big shot Aug 9, 11:42 2
  - $100 million vs $200 million budget is a world of difference in profit. - Inigo Aug 9, 11:46 1
    - most of the old brain-trust are gone, Disney just wants their sequels. at some point are you even Pixar anymore if you're not the thing they bought in - hollywood big shot Aug 9, 11:57
also wants a return to 90-120 day theatrical windows for their releases. can't imagine why -- nm - hollywood big shot Aug 9, 11:17
lol is that typical for Pixar? - hollywood big shot Aug 9, 11:09 6
- MOVE. THOSE. GOALPOSTS!!! - David Aug 9, 11:11 5
  - the goalposts of their movies' box office performance since 1995? -- nm - hollywood big shot Aug 9, 11:14 4
    - I think someone used the term "kneecapped theatrically". - David Aug 9, 11:18 3
      - $150m domestic for a Pixar is (1) abysmal; and (2) totally kneecapped by the last three years of dumping them all to Plus - hollywood big shot Aug 9, 11:21 2
        
        Plus bad trailers and marketing -- nm - budice Aug 9, 11:22
        
        Mmmhmm. - David Aug 9, 11:21
Is this the secret? -- nm - Beryllium Aug 9, 11:07
