"Finding Dory" on pace for record-breaking 140m weekend

>>83873815
Fuck. I hoped it wouldn't do this good because I want original IPS from Pixar. Get ready for sequel galore for next 10 years nostalgiafags.

It's lucky it opened on a weak weekend AND there hasn't been a big movie (100+mil weekend) in quite some time. My guess is that other studios overestimated people's interested in the *other* sequels and high profile IPs that came before this (including but not limited to: Conjuring 2, Warcraft, Now You See Me 2, TMNT 2, X-Men Apocalypse, Alice 3, Angry Birds, Neighbors 2).

I'm still kind of surprised that it's SO popular. I mean, did people even like Dory enough to want her to have her own movie?

The sequels will only continue.

>Cars 3
>Toy Story 4
>The Incredibles 2

Pixar sold out boys.

>>83874278
Toy Story 4's the only disappointing one. Cars 3 is completely expected and Incredibles 2 has been hyped for a while now.

>>83873979
We already know that's coming. At least we get a new Incredibles out of it.

>>83876270
Except for Through the Looking Glass tanking and the inevitable failure of Pete's Big Green Flying Dog.

>>83876321
> Jesus christ, who thought this was a good idea? The third ended the series so neatly-- how can this possibly be a better ending than it?

>>83878231
Toy Story 4 is centered around Bo Peep's return and rekindling things with Woody. The human/toy dynamic isn't even playing a factor. They might as well have just made it a Valentine's Day special.

As usual, the only thing that can beat Disney is Disney

>>83877992
And The BFG. Absolutely nobody has talked about that

I liked it. Could have been more funny and less sad, though.

>>83878395
That's at least got the Spielberg name attached to it. And it's not another fucking Disney cartoon remake. And hey, it's going up against some Tarzan movie I keep forgetting exists.

So what is the movie about anyways?

>>83878712
Dory starts remembering her parents and her original home: an aquarium/sea life rescue in Morro Bay, California. Has Marlin and Nemo come along to help her, but they get split up upon arrival.

>Help some mentally disabled chick fond her parents
>She nearly gets you and your son killed
>Causes your son to get hit pretty hard
>Bothers you while to try to help aforementioned son
>Tell her to go away and throw in a snide comment, since you are understandably frustrated
>Son treats you like Satan for the rest of the film

Being Marlin is rough.

>>83873979

We have an Incredibles, Toy Story, and Cars sequel coming next. So that day is already here.

Exactly, it should've been a short movie like the halloween special. The Toy Story trilogy was focused on Andy growing up, not the toys. How the hell are you meant to top the previous movies anyway?

>>83875764
>We aren't even Pixar/Disney's core audience anymore anyways
The fact that they're making sequels to 13 year old movies suggests otherwise.
If you think you're getting off John Lasseter's wild ride anytime soon, you've got another thing coming.

>>83883879
>The fact that they're making sequels to 13 year old movies suggests otherwise.
Disney has been doing that shit for years

Just got back from it. Loved it.

I was worried it would be too much of a re-tread of the first one ("we have to cross the ocean AGAIN?") but they get to California in the first 10 minutes and it really grows into its own from there.

A lot more sad moments - it really drives home just how awful it must be to be Dory, being just one wrong turn away from being completely hopeless and terrified. But it also encourages the unique strengths disabled people have developed to work through their limitations.

Whaleshark a cute.

It wasn't that good. I think it got a score it didn't deserve on FreshKetchup.

Rescuers down under was great. Granted, I've only seen down under.

>>83878552
Chuckles != Shekels

>>83873979
I remember reading somewhere recently that they've committed explicitly to a schedule of one sequel every other year and one new IP every year.

So at the very least, they're SAYING they won't switch exclusively to cash cows.

>>83885194
Same here. I was initially skeptical because the trailers made it look like a retread of the first movie, only with Dory in the star role. In that sense I was almost thinking it'd turn out like Cars 2.

But the decision to examine the full implications of her memory issues was a great one. Lesser writers would have simply milked it for the sake of humor (see Cars 2 above), but here they showed how it could make even the simplest tasks a nightmare, and worked with it. Hank and the other characters they introduced into the movie were also great.

So far it's looking like a good year for Disney/Pixar, and what I saw from Moana is looking pretty intriguing too. I think Zootopia is currently my top film for animation, but Dory is still way up there.

I'm pretty sure that's why you can't find them in many aquariums. Only place I've heard of that has them is Japan. And the Japanese aren't exactly known for having a lot of concern for the comfort or well being of captive animals in their zoos or aquariums, so they get a certain amount of shit for keeping their whale sharks in what might be less than ideal conditions.

>>83889764
That was the largest aquarium of the world, that's why they could keep whale sharks there.
Them they got surpassed by USA who made a bigger aquarium to put 4 whale sharks in the same tank.

They've also got four of them in the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta.

>>83890617
They sometimes go to the Philippines.
I have poked them with my own hand.
They are also eaten and like most animals they taste like crap.

>>83890720
That's how Atlanta got theirs: Bought them before they could be butchered in the Taiwanese fish market, which refers to whale sharks as "Tofu sharks" based on the taste.

>>83890799
Two male whale sharks, Ralph and Norton, died in captivity at the Georgia Aquarium on 11 January 2007, and 13 June 2007, respectively. The two females were added on 3 June 2006 and two more males in 2007. All six whale sharks were imported from Taiwan, where whale sharks are called tofu sharks because of the taste and texture of the flesh

I haven't found any news about the whale sharks at the Okinawa Aquarium dying so I assume they are kept in good conditions despite what was said by >>83889764

Finding Dory feels unnecessary, and I was internally groaning when I heard my friends and family talking about how hyped they were for this movie

>>83891598
It's better than the first, so who cares if it's "unnecessary"

>>83891664
Lol no it's not
Way more throw away jokes, plot holes, plot conveniences and the climax felt lame like it was from a generic animated animal movie like over the hedge.

Finding Nemo had its own plot conveniences like the Pelican guy coincidentally meeting Marlin and also the one who befriended Nemo. Finding Dory has a lot more of those moments.

>>83891598
it's still a great movie, I don't care if it was unnecessary or not. But I like how this movie took much different direction which felt fresher to its predecessor

>>83873815
The improvement in animation isn't that big compared to say Toy story 2 to Toy story 3.
The only clear thing I noticed was Dorys "freckles" being more visible and the scales of fishes were also more visible.

>>83873815
>Shrek 2 Domestic Box Office: $441,226,247

>>83892720
The Shrek movies were nothing but cheapass bashing.

>>83892818
The first movie was genuinely good and felt like a breath of fresh air when it was released.
It also came out during Disney studios descent into mediocrity and Pixars rise to mainstream popularity.

>>83893060
They were good for their time, but aged like milk.

He's not wrong about the bashing. Once you get into Jeffery Katzenberg's history with Disney, the whole thing just comes off as a smear movie made by a bitter jackass, right down to the villain being a caricature of his former colleague.

>>83891909
I personally don't see anything wrong with the plot consciences in the movie.

>>83893306

>there is absolutely no barrier or net to prevent the Seals from escaping into open ocean which is just plain stupid

Real fish can't talk or think. Real aquariums don't need to design barriers for planned escapes.

The seals explicitly state they were cured and released. They're not part of the institute. They live there.

Real octopi do have incredible camouflage.

>>83899412
Large fish and cetaceans are pretty fucking intelligent though, a real aquarium wouldn't have no barrier stopping them from just jumping over. The others didn't break immersion, and this one was minor. I liked it.

Also I want to fuck Destiny

>>83899495
You don't need to be intelligent to jump over. Even invertebrates do that if they feel threatened/panic and will kill themselves because they jumped out of an aquarium that is not close to the sea and can't jump back into the aquarium.

Dory, having dealt with her memory issues for years, has developed a level of decisiveness that lets her function.

This is in contrast in Marlin's second-guessing and over-thinking, which leaves him paralyzed into inaction.

The movie was not subtle about this, what with the mantra of "What would Dory do?" getting them through problems.

The message, of course, is that the disabled characters don't let their disabilities cripple them.

Dory and Marlin

Anyone kind of amazed how much Disney is dominating this year?
Civil War and Zootopia crossed a billion and Jungle Book is really damn close to as well.

With Finding Dory, Dr. Strange and Rogue One, they'll be scary successful.

>>83893523
Pretty sure those seals were wild but just given tracking tags for research purposes. The Monterrey Bay Aquarium that Pixar based much of the movie on has this open bay area where wild sea otters can come and go freely and sometimes functions as "sea otter rehabilitation check-in" when something like say, an abandoned pup is stranded there.

>>83873815
What happened in the end? Did Dory stayed with Marlin and Nemo? Is Dory Nemo's mom now?

>>83915615
Yeah, but Disney having the top three highest grossing films of the year already ain't nothing to scuff at.

>>83913551
It's impressive that Disney has two or three successful brands right now, but they've always juggled a lot of formats and IPs.
And they've done a lot of solid live-action adventure movies in the past ten years, they just weren't taken as seriously because none of them were based on brands as familiar or popular as Star Wars.

>>83913551
This is also only the second year of Disney's annual Star Wars release plan. Right now they're reviving a popular, dormant franchise, but they're pretty much guaranteed to find out when returns start diminishing.

I would think they would suffocate eventually. And yes, fish do need oxygen even though they breath it out of the water. They will eventually run out of oxygen and replace it with carbon dioxide if tied up in a plastic bag the same way you or I would.

I'm going to imagine that those fish have been captured and escaped in the same way several times now, which I think makes the gag a bit more funny.

A sequel will most likely end up focusing on Nick. In Zootopia, all he exists as is a plot device for Judy, and as such, he's shoved under the bus every step of the way and we know very little about him. The second movie might be what all of us wanted: Nick limelight.

damn, I was hoping something like pic related happened

I think it was a cop out to actually find her parents. It's like they were going to make Dory realize she had a family the entire time with Nemo and Marlin but someone said that wouldn't make families feel good so they changed it last minute.

>>83921609
To be completely honest, I wouldve prefer that she found the new home, and that's it. Maybe the parent's make a message for her out of the shells because she can read english, and then she remembers sigourney weaver's voice and connects to the climax. That would've been great to see.

But of course, what we did get was okay I guess.

>>83873815
I just finished watching this movie.
I went with low expectations and apparently even that was too optimistic. IMO, not worth the C$14 to see it. I wished I had turned left in the hallway and gone into the one showing The Jungle Book.

>>83921904
Game hopping would work better for a series than a movie. A movie audience would probably get lost if they kept switching it up.

>>83921748
Funny you should mention that, I saw the trailer in 3D IMAX last friday and I fidn't find it inspiring. Could be because I have fond memories of seeing the Disney version as a little kid in the 1970s (yeah i'm an oldfag).

>>83897373
Not at all. He seemed like a concerned brother. If anything, I saw more of that type of potential between her and Hank. But even that's pushing it.

>>83922106
Nah, hank was the brother. Marlin wants to fertilize Dory's eggs.

>>83917169

Eisner is 6'3" and owns his baldness, it's not a dig any eisner, you're digging too hard for the connection.

Though Shrek being a combination of Mike and Sulley from monsters inc is a spot on accusation.

So if they were to make yet ANOTHER sequel to this movie, what would it be about?

How often does it happen when a character is separated from their parents for an extensively long time that they actually find them again?

>>83921927

Oh you poor naive thing, zootopia is doomed as a franchise, all because of its director who made all the problems behind it, Disney won't make another talking animals feature for the next 10 years, they were reluctant about such movies, and he's a prime example why they don't want to be known for these movies.

>>83924018

>There are no walls in the ocean” goes the concluding moral of Finding Dory, the latest social message from what can be considered the Disney Doctrine. But what about nature’s great barrier reef, the one known as Taste? Disney’s “happiest-place-in-the-world” corporate philosophy appears to tie in with current open-borders politics. (The better to welcome theme-park visitors, my dear.) The studio’s popular multimedia productions The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, The Lion King, and Frozen have led the diversity trend for so long that Disney’s frivolous yet ideologically loaded entertainment has influenced what many people now perceive as simply the way animated films ought to be made and consumed –as youth indoctrination.

>In Finding Dory, a sequel to the 2003 blockbuster Finding Nemo, Dory, a blue tang surgeonfish, can’t recall how to get home. With help from her best friend, Nemo, an orange-and-white-striped percula clownfish, she journeys to find her way back to her well-meaning but ineffectual parents. It’s the usual, tiring Pixar formula, but now an element of modern grimness, patterned after the dystopian Wall-E (2008), has been added. It’s a grim cuteness — as in the dimply sound that Ellen DeGeneres uses in voicing the role of Dory: “I suffer from short-term remembery loss,” she gurgles at the beginning.

>One’s taste for messaging and for mawkishness will determine one’s response to Finding Dory. Although the specter of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease haunts this Pixar fish tank — especially in the nagging irritation that it all has been seen before — Finding Dory is relatively innocuous. And innocuousness is the problem. Dory and her water-dwelling friends learn about ecological coexistence while venturing through aquatic wilds and eventually into the Marine Life Institute of California. (This includes a maritime exhibit using action-movie heroine Sigourney Weaver as a docent.) But Finding Dory is aggressively innocuous, like the Toy Story films. Fears of orphanhood, bereavement, and social helplessness are raised only to be easily pacified. For anyone who is not a legally bound babysitter, Finding Dory offers nothing that will please a taste for finer humor, freer fun, or genuinely expressive filmmaking.

>Once again, it’s time to rethink the impact of Pixarism — the veneration-of-family movie formula that too many people think is just dandy — as a corruption of movie taste. Directors Andrew Stanton and Angus MacLane offer an aquarium rainbow of colors and tickling, wavy ocean-current imagery that must make the digital animators very proud, but these technological feats are tied to an overly cute moral simplification. Dory’s search for her mother and father is a transparent metaphor for our era’s bewilderment about family and identity. Dory declares that her pals Nemo, his father, Marlin, an anxious, amputated octopus (called a “septapus”), and other helpful anthropomorphic creatures are “more than friends — they’re family!” This doesn’t just mean camaraderie; it transforms ideas of orthodox family structure.

>The modern family in Finding Dory corresponds to contemporary social circumstances; it forsakes blood ties and shared history for new social allegiances. Curiously, it intermixes ideas of traditional marriage with ideas of social independence and individual sustenance (omnisexual sustenance through Ellen DeGeneres’s prepubescent vocals). This modern asexual view is just as sentimental as old-fashioned allegiance to the basic two-parent heterosexual social unit.

>Disney’s masterpieces from the Forties and Fifties, such as Pinocchio, Dumbo, and Bambi, offered richer alternative visions, in which individual protagonists learned from family separation and tragedy. Finding Dory, by contrast, feels tendentious. It encourages audiences to see themselves as part of a sociological construct outside of the traditional family. My main problem is that this is achieved by putting viewers through the politically correct wringer. There’s constant manipulation of sentiment in Finding Dory, but without reflection. A crucial part of the Disney Doctrine is to normalize social (and family) dysfunction. Dory herself symbolizes displacement and spiritual dislocation. She’s not just a fish-out-of-water — despite being mostly in water. She’s an existential victim. (One of her non-familial friends is a near-sighted whale shark named Destiny.)

>In his classic 1976 study of fairy tales, The Uses of Enchantment, psychologist-scholar Bruno Bettelheim explained: “The fairy story ends with the hero returning, or being returned, to the real world, much better able to master life.” Pixar has commandeered this template. It pretends to help audiences “gain emotional maturity,” as Bettelheim advised, yet Finding Dory — like all Pixar films — mainly teaches viewers immaturity and emotional dependence on Disney/Pixar product.

>Animation doesn’t have to be as formulaic as Finding Dory. In the 1960s DePatie–Freleng cartoon series Roland and Rattfink — newly released by Kino on Blu-Ray DVDs — the conflicts between the two men symbolized political difference (unlike Finding Dory’s communalism and implicit socialism). Their battles allowed for sharp rhetoric and antic graphics. Roland and Rattfink reminds one that animation’s original appeal came from its surreal rendering of the irrational — of a wonder, fear, and delight that goes beyond photographic realism. Finding Dory’s faux realism (the fish look like plastic when they emerge from water) replaces conventional animation artistry with a new taste for something less than wonderful. The Disney Doctrine advocates personal politics through obvious patronizing and adorableness.

>(2015) Minions ($115.7M) vs Dory ($138.12M)

TS 1 was about the toy and his kid, and the fear of being replaced.

TS 2 was about the impending knowledge that this kid will eventually grow up and accepting it while making the best of the time you have.

Third one was about growing up and embracing change. Andy grows up but also do the toys.

Just my opinion, I've always felt toy story was the tale of the boy and his toys, and since there are no toys without the boy they are simply a metaphore for childhood.
