>The Boss will return.
Did anybody even watch the first movie?
>51% on RT
>made over double its budget
thinking of this movie gives me a fucking headache
>>92700233
motherfucker I was just about to post this
anyways it's probably popular with kids judging from those weird animated videos on youtube so I'm sure it makes money
Welp
>>92700233
i l-liked it
>>92700233
Is this movie supposed to be worse rugrats?
>>92700233
No, no no no NOOOO!!!!!
>>92700233
>Did anybody even watch the first movie?
Nope.
But I must say -- Isn't the first movie still in theaters?? Jesus fuck.
Someone liked it.
>>92700233
Guarantee that the plot will focus on a snarky baby sister voiced by either Schumer, Silverman, or Tina Fey. Jane Lynch or Meryl Streep are possibilities for more cash from dreamworks.

No fuck this shit.
The Incredibles 2 and Dory shit made sense but these are fucking terrible. Who the fuck even wanted these? Wreck It Ralph is also excusable, but good god.
>>92701654
dory and wreck it are not excusable. also when the fuck is gigantic coming out?

How do we stop Illumination Entertainment?
>>92701597
Only problem with that is that apparently Alec Baldwin has already signed on to return.
I mean, you've probably hit the nail on the head (though, if I had to make a legit guess for who their next headliner is gonna be, I'd go with either Fey or maybe even Samantha Bee), and they'll likely reduce Baldwin's role to something more akin to a cameo or something. Still, as a person who actually saw the first one, I genuinely don't see why this, of all things, needed a sequel.
Sure, it's Dreamworks' biggest success since The Croods, but from a narrative standpoint, the whole thing felt like a one-and-done affair.
>>92701654
>Madagascar 4
No
They somehow managed to make each sequel better than the prior movie but this is risking everything
>>92701654
>>92701775
where the fuck is the motherfucking Incredibles 2 i fucking hate this world
I fucking hate parents and their endless quest for mindless entertainment for their kids. Maybe if you shits actually put some thought into what your children consumed they wouldn't be such brats.
So does this movie have a MILF?
>>92701371
Was this actually drawn by KC Green or is it just a good imitator? If it's the former he's really milking that fuckin' dog.

So like there's a 100% chance the bad guy is Boss Baby President Crump right?
>>92701654
Dory was shit dude.
>>92700233
>le dreamworks face
seriously. why. every fucking promo image has this shit. STOP MAKING YOUR CHARACTERS SO SMUG
>>92701654

the only sequel on this list that gets a pass is Incredibles 2
everything else can fuck off
Whatever funds DW's better works
It had a lot of good moments visually but the writing sucked.
>>92703157
That's the thing though, we've been down this path before. DW had this amazing slate of films that were planned to come out between 2011 and 2018 and almost all of them were shelved to double down on sequels that were supposedly better gambles in order to fund those movies. Now most of them are canned or lost a lot of the talent that made them appealing in the first place. This "sequels and big IPs to fund the 'real' risky movies" is a road to ruin and what led to their current position in the first place.
>>92701371
>>92702815
I think this was made way back during the short amount of time that Harambe was not a normie meme. KC Green is usually a funny guy
>>92702815
>oh no a cultural meme!
>guess I'll have to dislike this now!
>>92703486
Nothing wrong with that mindset.
>>92701521
WHERE ARE YOUR NIPPLES BOY!?
>>92700233
>They're making a sequel to this shitstain of a movie.
>>92700233
How the fuck did we go from Kung Fu Panda to this?
>>92700233
Huh, it made less than Home did and that film just got a show. Was it just a helluva lot cheaper to make?
>/co/ being this surprised that a book with a direct sequel gets a movie with a direct sequel
>>92700233
>>92700233
EVERYBODY GETS A BABY! well, almost everybody...
>>92700282
Double its budget in profits means it actually came in at a loss, believe it or not.
Because the budget doesn't account for the marketing budget, which is usually the same, if not more, than the actual budget itself. Not to mention 30% of the money it "made" in the box office has to get kicked back to the movie theaters.
As fucked as it sounds, any movie that doesn't make at least 3X its budget is actually a flop, and likely cost the studio more money than it earned.
Maddi I know you're in here somewhere.
>>92704762
Did the movie even have anything to do with the book outside of there being a baby and that baby being a boss?
>>92705031
Then why is it getting a sequel
>>92700233
>>92705031
The whole 'marketing budget= film budget' thing is actually pretty rare. The myth that it always works out that way comes from BvS and The Last Airbender, both of which spent insane amounts of lucre on advertising.
>>92701597
Well yes, that's what the Book's sequel is about.
>>92700233
I haven't seen the movie but how accurate is this?
>>92705226
Sometimes flop films get made as tax write-offs. If a studio doesn't make as much money this year it can avoid taxes by going into a lower tax bracket.
>>92700233
My students mentioned they wanted to see Sing, Secret Life of Pets, and Boss Baby. Simple things with cutesy character designs is what sells to young children these days. Simple toys too, like those fucking spinners.
>>92701654
Toy Story 4 is what really peeves me off. The trilogy closed perfectly but now Pixar can't make sellable original stories anymore.
>>92705516
Surprisingly, not accurate. Movie actually doesn't do the dance party ending.
...It just relegates the dancing to two sequences spread throughout the first and/or second act. They aren't long, thankfully.
>>92705719
>The trilogy closed perfectly
>implying they didn't end it that way to start a new series of Toy Story films for a new generation starring the toys under Bonnie instead of Andy
That dinosaur short didn't tip you off?
>>92700233
>those comments
Since when was Boss Baby a meme?
>>92705159
Who?
>the only 2d animation movie in the near 5 years gets you banned
>>92706907
Since people on youtube started live streaming the movie over and over and over again.
>>92701521
This is why YT views are stupid metric. This shit gets put in a big dumpster of kids recommended views and it just gets replayed over and over again by unwitting kids who have no idea wtf is going on. This is why all the family vlogs and toy opening videos get so many views.
>>92705031
They can still make its money back and be profitable by selling the streaming rights and television rights.
God I wish Dreamworks had gone out of business rather then us contuninging to get this calibur of garbage from them.
Wikipedia told me that the plot of the movie was just a story the adult version of the kid was telling his daughter to prep her for her baby sister. So will it be another story the guy tells or about his kids?
>>92707984
also shirts, never forget the shirts
>>92702108
>>92703482
It was made by Green during the election when the original "This is fine" image was blowing up big time on social media. Pretty sure it was only the second time he used the dog, too
>>92706907
everything's a meme now that normies have their fingernails into lememe culter
>>92708142
It'll be about the baby sister
duh
>boss baby x emoji movie x minions x cars x shrek x rabbids cross over movie when
>>92700233
I thought the babies started aging once they have a family
>>92701654
Motherfucking Illumination,
I'll admit they perfected the way to make money off a movie with cheap budget, but this shits gone on long enough! Also their films are sht!!!

>Boss Baby finally hits theaters in Japan
>Receives critical accliam by nip audiences and critics and is hailed as the Kimi no Na wa from the west.
>>92704762

>Called "Bossy"
Uh-ooooh, someone's gonna get upset.
>>92707817
I actually like watching family vlogs
>>92700233
How many LOL TRUMP jokes do you think there will be?
>>92708715
Don't give the faggots who make all the "SPIDER-MAN ELSA IN REAL LIFE" videos any ideas.
Name one (1) movie that came out this year that had better visual gags than Boss Baby.
If you sense decline in DW or Disney movies (maybe?), there is another option.
>>92700233
>they didn't even give it 3 months
>>92701654
Jesus fucking christ that is beyond depressing.

At least emoji movie has a cute loli. This has nothing I can jack off to.
>>92701371
>Ruining your own joke
>>92707817
Are kids not the intended audience anymore? Who cares if they accidentally let it autoplay, they clearly sat there long enough to watch the whole thing and count it as a view.
>>92710904
Yeah kids really need to watch Spiderman vs Pregnant Elsa
>>92708135
They're making Captain Underpants though

I guess all of YouTube is a fluke, then.

Well I suppose it might be if you were stupid enough to still be going to the theater, but hey.

It was both the beginning and end of a series.
>>92708991
Is this true?
>>92712298
Probably the cheapest CG I've seen in a major release in the past decade.
Even my 2 year old doesn't want to watch any of the A&O crap on Netflix. Literally hurts to look at.

>it's popular so I hate it

I liked Boss Baby, but I don't think the sequel will be better. Part of the movie's charm was the unexpectedness of some sequences, if they're just going to do those again in the sequel then it's less interesting.
>>92701995
Yeah, but she didn't get any fanservice
