Toy Story 5 nears $585M, outpaces Supergirl at box office
Took the youngest kid to their first movie theater today. Saw Toy Story 5 at the Riverview. That place kicks so much ass. $5 tickets, cheap concessions, house full of other families with young kids.
The standard by which I measure other movie theaters, not even kidding.
I loved taking a whole carload of kids to the Riverview. If they liked the movie we'd come back the next week and do it again because we could afford to.
The Parkway during Halloween / Christmas season is really fun, too.
I tend to be a bit snobby with my theater choices, but watching the KPop Demon Hunters sing-along there with 200 scream-singing kids was a genuine highlight of my parenting experience so far.
The best first run movie house in town. Hit up Lynette or Okome House afterwards and life is good
and they show wolves playoff games for free!
If female superhero leads are important to you, you might consider buying a ticket even if you have to suffer. It kind of sounds like Hollywood is thinking female superheros don't drive movie sales, and that's a problem.
“It’s your fault that Hollywood doesn’t make good movies! If you don’t buy a ticket to a bad movie, it’s misogyny!!”
Young woman and her dog kill human traffickers. I liked it.
Must be why “Captain Marvel” made over a billion dollars.
PG13 v PG. That was my deciding factor of what to watch with my kiddo.
Lol. The last movie I watched in a theater was Saving Private Ryan. I really dislike theaters.
Movies have to earn my money, just like politicians have to earn my vote. I saw a trailer and it did not grab me. I'm not obligated to support terrible or even mid movies just because they have a female lead. I won't endorse that behavior.
‘TOY STORY 5’ has grossed over $585M at the worldwide box office.
At this rate Andrew Stanton will become the first Pixar director to helm two Pixar films to make over a billion. Imagine going from making the biggest bomb in Disney history (RIP John Carter) to that. Amazing
Sweet! I know what I am watching today!
"No one asked for this"... makes nearly $600 Million worldwide second weekend.
In a setback for Warner Bros.′ revamped DC movie operations, "Supergirl" was absolutely no match for "Toy Story 5" at the box office, opening a distant second to the Pixar blockbuster.
Seems a bit weird to compare a secondary character’s first solo film to a new installment of a genre-defining IP that has entire theme park sections themed after it.
Nothing was going to beat Toy Story. A WB mailroom intern could have told them that.
The bloody trolls are going to love this... dammit.
I mean it’s Toy Story it’s like launching a video game the same day as gta6 and surprised you didn’t sell as well
Marvel saturated the market with their content and people started realizing it's the same plot over and over. Also, the movie theater experience is horrible. Especially when we have all the features a movie theater has at home plus a pause button..
Toy story was just old after the first one and it is worse each time.
I miss when movies were more art than sport I don't care who's beating who at the box office; I would like films that make me think, or laugh, or films that are visually beautiful, or films that impress with their craft and unique vision etc Yet another superhero movie or a 4th sequel is boring
If you like super hero movies, and are rooting for DC—go see this movie. It’s really good. I really don’t get the bad reviews.
I don’t know man these movies are not courting the same audience seems weird to compare
yes, OR, nobody as money to go to the movies anymore?
I just got back from watching Toy Story 5. The artists at Pixar once again made me cry with a simple and heartfelt story with a nuanced approach to the conflict with toys and tech. I felt for every single character in this. Andrew Stanton and Kenna Harris somehow managed to surpass my expectations.
I most certainly agree. Pixar never fails to deliver with this wonderful franchise and it’s an absolute miracle that it’s strong on movie number 5. Most franchises at this point would either go off the rails or sink lower if they already did. Toy Story thankfully does not fall in that category.
Gotta go see it then this week 💛❤️
i still think the first two are the best ones and that 3 was the most like. conclusive toy story but 4 was still like. good, even if i liked it less. pleasantly surprised with what i've heard about 5 so...
I just saw 5 yesterday & I enjoyed it! ^_^ Better than 4, not sure where I'd rank it among the original trilogy.
Toy Story 5 is shockingly very good considering everything it had going against it. With the new status quo the franchise oddly feels comfortable enough telling good stories for a little longer
