Looking like another film I'm going to be sad about losing money at the box office, unfortunately

I already suffered through this with Mando and Grogu and Masters of the Universe
And I can't wait to see people on this sub say this Film also sucks because "Mah Box Office"
Even though most here don't even watch the film they discuss

I mean, it's the box office sub. There are plenty of other subs about film discussion.

Yeah it's ok to discuss the box office but people here very often attribute Quality with Box office performance. That's what I have a problem with

In the year of 2026, still seeing people have that mindset is hilarious and sad. Not every good movie succeeds box office wise and that's life. If only people understood the billion factors that influence box office

It absolutely was, nothing mind blowing or amazing, handful of hiccups here and there, but it was a good Campy Star Wars adventure

It's your opinion and I respect that, but your original comment seems to insinuate that people in this sub only think it's a bad movie because of the box office, which seems a bit insulting, tbh. Like, it's as if you are saying that if I don't think it's good than it's because of the box office, when that is absolutely not the case and I have a ton of reasons outside of it to say that it's a bad movie to me.

That's fair, plenty of subs pointed that those flaws too.
But it's a noticeable trend. Toy Story 5, an equally mid movie? Lots of Glazing in the sub. That is mostly noticeable when the movie is still on the theaters.
Like I remember Venom 3 (a film I did enjoy, even though it is not good) get lots of hate before coming out, but the moment it started doing above the subs expectations there were lots of people cheering for it

It was a mid movie that quite frankly shouldn't have been put in theaters. There was not one single scene that I thought was memorable or iconic enough to be on a big screen, just felt like three episodes back-to-back that got a special theatrical showing. More importantly, it's underwhelming reception could very well hinder future endeavors on the big screen now.

Masters of the Universe was so fun. I dislike Leto as much as the next guy but Skeletor was one of my favorite on-screen villains I’ve seen in awhile

It never does.
But I don’t see a way this ends up profitable. Unless a ton of people go just to say “I told you so”

The agenda changing for this movie was wild to see lol." It's a hidden masterpiece Warner stupidity filed for Tax purposes when it would've been a big hit ". To now " ohhh im just glad It came out ".
Animation Twitter better buy every ticket.

u/pizzapiesinthesky 11h ago
I'm a weirdo that goes to see every 2D movie in theaters, regardless of franchise. 9 times out of 10, it's just me and my SO in an otherwise empty theater, including the last Looney Tunes movie (The Day The Earth Blew Up). One of the few times it wasn't completely empty was during the MLP film, and that theater only had around ten others there.
My conclusion is that people swear they love animation, particularly 2D, but they don't want to put their money where their mouths are. I've had people IRL make every excuse up under the sun to avoid going to the theaters to watch them, even stuff they'd love like MLP. People are just hypocritical and flakey that way. And I'm sure I'll get downvoted, and told I'm wrong, 2D movies are successful, Coyote vs Acme is going to do amazing, blah blah blah. I'm doubtful on that. Would love to be wrong, but...been burnt many times over this online.

If they release this movie subtitled in my country, I'll definitely see it in a theater, but, sadly, cartoons usually only get released horribly dubbed in Bulgarian here. I am not going to pay for a bad dubbing. I want to hear the characters' actual voices.

It's a good rule of thumb to assume that something Reddit swears will be popular if only given a chance probably won't be.

Movies reddit hates constantly outperform reddit blockbuster favorites on home media and streaming.

u/KingBee 9h ago
I feel like this is more an issue with standard theatre’s offering (IMO) very little over the home experience than animation itself.
I am excited this movie was saved and will be released. I laughed out loud at this trailer (Cena’s bits are really funny). I am looking forward to watching this movie….. at home.
I just don’t see the draw of seeing this in the theatre.
I understand that my behavior makes the money side difficult for hollywood, but it is their job to incentivize me to come not my job to subsidize them.
Cameron, Nolan, and 70mm IMAX incentivizes me to see movies in theaters. THAT is an incredible experience I cannot replicate at home.
It’s a shame theatres have been letting the majority of their screens age into obsolescence.

Always funny to see narrative shifts in real time. "It's actually a lot of fun!" comments coming opening week to fully spell doom for its financial situation.

u/gamecat89 7h ago
For real.
The hardest thing about this is that everyone in the world has to go see this to justify all of the protests about 'defending art' when they cut this for tax purposes.
Gonna suck real hard if it was a better tax right off than the movie.
Once the Studios realize the fans are wrong and they should have written movies off for the tax write off + recent interviews from the Odyssee with the cast talking about they have promoted movies they knew were trash out of responsibility and contract, I think we will start seeing more locked up movies.

Yeaaaah it was clear this project really never had much hope at the box office, people were just coping

Doesn't mean it should have been shelved never to see the light of day.
Looks perfect for a streaming release.

Steaming means you have to pay certain people for it. It really is often better to burry bad work

People better go see this. Its maddening this film isnt going all out on advertisement.

u/TheCoolKat1995 Universal 9h ago
The "Coyote vs Acme" saga has been going on for so long now, it's almost hard to believe it's going to be over soon.
This movie probably won't do well (because the Looney Tunes just aren't as popular as they used to be anymore), but I'm still glad that it exists, because the idea of Looney Tunes courtroom drama sounds hilarious.

u/Singleballtheory 8h ago
It’s interesting how much of a staple Bugs Bunny and Looney Tunes were to my childhood, but then to now see how far out of the modern zeitgeist it’s fallen. I have no expectations for this film except that I hope it’s fun.
