This is why people shouldn’t always associate lower-budgeting with being financially wise. When we harp on studios for giving movies high budgets, this is typically the response where either the animation can get outsourced to international branches (Warner Bros./Illumination/Sony) or cheaper talent is hired (Disney/Pixar).

Panda 4 made close to the first weekend box office and was by farthest the cheapest of the 4 films to make

Sadly movies are just a business to them and this will continue happening in the industry and move into video games as well

I work in an office, no way my job isn’t an AI in 5-10 years as well

Welcome to the future

A bit late to the party, but anyone remember the days of Rooster Teeth? The show that made Red vs Blue, Camp Camp, and (the only one I’ve seen) RWBY? they’re done. Warner has shut them out.

It took 5 months, but Dune 2 has finally become the first film to gross more than the $180M domestic brought in by The Eras Tour.

I believe WONKA eventually crossed $200m domestic, as well.

But in any case, it's been a rough several months for the box office.

Atleast RvB is potentially gonna release soon with a party involved for the final season. Hoping Dillon Goo and Crunchyroll do a joint venture to get the RWBY ip.

So from things I've read they seem to have quietly cancelled shows/movies....I wonder if Armor Wars and Vision Quests are the shows then since these two are still coming out

This sounds horrible.

This sounds horrible.

At least it's animated. It can't end up worse than the live-action adaptation... right? RIGHT!?

I will say I'm surprised it's WB and not Universal. Although after Illumination violated The Grinch every which way with that unnecessary animated remake, I'm also not surprised.

But yea.. I don't have high expectations for this

I liked the animated Grinch for what its worth.

Good luck. People are attached to the Robin Williams campy original. So it'll be interesting to see how this turns out

 

[Wesker69]

New Trailer.... I was surprised we didn't have a Mad Max/Furiosa thread. Leaving this here for now

Ah yes, that beloved children's classic, the....1982 Robin Williams Popeye movie from 42 years ago?

 

[belloq87]

It's a cult classic.

No the Robert Altman-directed cult* classic from 44 years ago. The children's arcade game from 42 years ago is probably better known at this point.

* - it's small as cults go.
