Mrnoniee Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Quote Elemental earned an estimated $29.5 for the three-day weekend, the lowest wide weekend debut ever for a Pixar title outside of Toy Story, which started off with $29.1 million nearly three decades ago, not adjusted for inflation. (Toy Story, of course, went on to make cinematic and box office history. Elemental isn’t expected to do the same.) Overseas, Elemental earned $17 million from its first 17 markets.

ninasayers Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Soul, Luca, and Turning Red weren't exactly flops, though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youreyesgocold Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Turning Red and Soul were great imo with Luca being at least good. Lightyear and Onward though… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylizzle Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Soul/Luca/Turning Red/Onward are unfair to consider flops given the circumstances 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALittleGauche Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Yawn, more sensationalized threads to attract toxic opinions. These are the same people who will brandish their pitchforks when another Marvel movie is announced and claim Hollywood only creates sequels. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GivingCher Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Pretty unfair to call most of these flops when they were sent to Disney+ and had no chance (which, make no mistake, is a huge part of why Elemental is performing the way it is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heartbreak Prince Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 Soul and Turning Red were so good. The pandemic and the subsequent streaming deals really destroyed the want for families to go see these movies in theatres though. Why would they spend all that money to see the new Disney/Pixar movie in the theatre when they could just wait a bit longer and watch it one night as a family at home? Disney/Pixar need to do something to convince people to get back to the theatre, such as waiting a good few months before a new movie is up on Disney+ or something like that. They're in a tough spot.

Cannon Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 From the Elemental trailer I saw, the animation looked very cheap and low budget. It seemed to be missing Pixar’s regular spark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AvadaKedavra Posted June 18, 2023 Share Posted June 18, 2023 (edited) The art style of turning red was really ugly. Glad it flopped. Encanto won. The characters of turning were so dumb and annoying too.....Watched some minutes and turned it off. Loved Luca-Raya. Onward was not that bad. Sadly the pandemic affected everything Buzz Light year was too "adult" "deep for kids" but i loved the artstyle This one looks great. dont get why is flopping. Im watching it soon Havent watched Soul. Lemme check that one Edited June 18, 2023 by AvadaKedavra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
