How big of a flop will it be /co/?
>Flop
It's going to get 90% on rt and make a billion dollars in merch alone.
I think it's a safe bet that it'll pull in more money than any /co/ related property this year. Don't underestimate Middle America.
It'll be a real stinker, a shitstain on the animation industry, it'll be a super bowl bomb, an Indian rocket ship with a fart of a launch, a Besty blow-out bowel flush thanks for those pork ribs they were terrible fantastic explosion.
>>93699675
Fuck you, you'll watch it
Massive. Worst idea for a movie ever.
2 sequals.
For the love of Allah, I hope this movie fails.
>>93699675
Hopefully big enough that it would scare hollywood away from fad-based movies for a couple of years. I still can't believe they canceled the Popeye movie for this turd.
>>93699830
Said nobody ever.
Also the Lego Movie was trash and so are the people that act like it was amazing.
>>93699850
I'm glad they did.
I want that shitty CG M&M art style that the Peanuts movie made popular to fuck off.
>>93699675
It's going to crash the superhero market. First people will see it ironically, then when they like it they'll see it 5 more times.
>>93699856
The studios don't give a shit voice by Patrick Stewart how good anything is. It's show business, not show art, and brother, business is booming.

Animation will be changed forever into a postmodern "quirky" reimagining of itself to sell not products, not an identity surrounding a product, but an entire essential means of living and way of being for everyone worldwide.
Welcome to the Shit Age of Animation.

When has Sony ever made a good animated movie?

Quints speak the truth, confirmed by Japan being ahead of the curve already.
>>93699856
Not to mention Legos are timeless and major pop-culture icons.
Emojis are worthless pieces of shit.
>>93700064
Where the fuck did Emojis even come from? I feel like the only person that remembers they used to be called emoticons.
So last year was Angry Birds and this year it's emojis.
What worthless internet feature only cared for by normies is gonna get a movie next year?
>>93700092
Ancient Egypt back when they were called heieroglyphics.
And actually cool-looking.
>>93700092
Japanese word. Like 90% of all emojis originated on 2ch. Westerners were just using simple combinations of parentheses and colons, but Japan's familiarity with extended character sets so they could type their language on a keyboard gave them tons of symbols to build emojis from.
>>93700124
Emojis are contextual heuristic ideograms. Hieroglyphics were just an alphabet.
>>93700124
Stop appropriating emoji culture

It'll be a shit movie but make a shitload of money simply because of how well-known and well-loved the Emojis are.

Normies and children are going to eat this shit up. It's the same reason why family guy is still around.

Well loved by normies, you dingus.
the same way that shit like Farmville and Clash of Clans are well loved: normies with no sense of taste, following whatever is popular
>>93700244
pretty much this
It's just a bunch of ripped off concepts from other popular movies (WiR, Inside Out, Lego Movie)
It'll do insanely well at the box office despite being trite and cliche as fuck, because normies don't care about quality
>>93699999
Quints confirm!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>93700124
>>93700155
>>93700174
But why are THESE emoticons so popular like they were made into a brand?
AOL Instant Messenger had them. Every forum ever had them.
I know Android has their own and so does Apple, but where did these come from?
Did some guy invent his own and somehow made it a business instead of a pallet for the internet to use for free?

I heard Aquamarine from Steven Universe will make a cameo
I hope it wrecks Patrick Stewart's career like Guardian of the Highlands did Connery.
>>93699675
I've seen literally no ads for it except a couple on Cartoon Network and the trailer that got nearly universal dislikes.
It's going to flop, it'll make like 10 million opening weekend and then Sony will take a write down. I'm just waiting for the critical shitstorm though, it's going to be a ride.

Illumination has far more self respect than Sony.
>>93699675
We should keep in mind that Sony isn't above making direct-to-DVD sequels
>>93699675
In before this kicks off the Emoji-verse and we get spinoff movies from each character
>>93699830
The lego movie is a gnostic masterpiece
i really have no idea how they got the green-light on that movie given the heavily anti-corporate themes let alone the heavily mystical shit they dumped into it
>>93703174
>our FIRST movie.
>>93699675
It will be a modest success but no make nearly enough to warrant a sequel. At best (worst), they'll make tons of shitty merch that will sell well
I want it to fail and I want Sony Pictures to go bankrupt and have to be spun off. I WANT NOTHING LESS THAN TOTAL DESTRUCTION.
>>93700389
Look up the Unicode consortium. Independent international group in charge of this shit.
Is it a possible scenario that even normies won't be seeing this movie?
>>93701109
haha, no
I'm surprised people think this is going to do well when the last bunch of low-effort animated movies have not done particularly well in recent months
>>93700155
no
emoticion is the combination of 2 english word "emotion" and "icon"
japs use the their own word kaomoji which the combo of "face" and "symbol"
>>93699675
I do not think you realize how much profit these movies make from children under 12. It will make money, a lot.
>>93699856
I disagree about the Lego Movie being trash. It had the best use of "you are special/important" message you often see in movies.
>>93705226
I'd have to see it again but what I remember was a "you're not special because you're different you're special because people are really pretty similar and that helps you work together cohesively"
and that was tight as fuck.
>>93700559
Ehh, I've been going out quite a bit lately and it seems like anytime I go in somewhere with a tv I'll see a trailer for it. When I was sitting in the living room watching a show with my family, the trailer came on. In the movies, the trailer was there. I feel like it's surrounding me.

>Post YFW the film turns out to be ahit
It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter at all if this movie is shat on critically. It doesn't matter if it bombs at the box office. The executives that demanded it be made weren't thinking about movie tickets. It's the merchandise. Imagine all the fucking emoji related merch that kids are going to buy, kids that probably never even saw the movie. The toys are what turned Cars into a franchise and the same thing will happen now. It'll practically pay for the movie and even guarantee a sequel. That's right, this won't end here. This is just the beginning of the Emoji Movie franchise.
>>93711362
But that was bad too. Mavis was the only good thing about it.
>>93699675
>implying it's not going to be a huge success
hell, a bunch of people on this boardincluding mewill probably watch it in theaters anyways to see how bad it is.
>>93712057
>already told my friend I'm going to watch the camrip
>she's trying to convince me to see it in theaters now
I refuse to pay money for this thing, and anybody who supports it ironically is part of the problem
>>93705992
Still not a lot of ads though, especially compared to Captain Underpants, Cars 3, and Despicable Me 3.
>Critc about how soulless is this movie
>Comment: Shut up, it's supposed to be for kids and not for you the adults
>>93712851
Just pay for another movie and then see it. Its what I did with Alien Covenant for the gore.
>>93700096
I want 4chan the movie, something like the social network but with moot
>>93700220
Tetris is one of the best games of all time, one of the best selling games of all time, and is scientifically proven to make your brain more efficient. Fuck off.
>>93700096
But Angry Birds was based as fuck.
>>93699772
>>93699999
The merch, the youtube parodies, swag vids, critics, react vids, the phone games, the emoji packs, and the porn...
It's going to work cuz they're gonna make it work.
You thought Cars was marketable, minions, muthafucken Legos?
This drawing a circle and sticking a face on it.
Then comes Halloween and then the normie and "sexy" emoji costumes.
Netflix will have to buy the rights for the cartoon series or risk losing one of the biggest whales of cash ever.
Then the knock offs will rise with fuck tons of straight to video moves of pure nonsense due to them just having them draw faces on fucking circles with appendages.
And the worst part of all this is going to be the collateral damage to other animations trying to be picked up but can't make a dent in sales compared to this.
This isn't the a meteor strike; not even a nuclear holocaust, this is a star exploding and going full black-hole.
I hate to blame the children and the parents who need some time away from them so I will.
FUCK SONY!!!
This isn't the death of animation
It's the death of people making movies of what they want and making compromises with studios to make it happen.
>>93711766
Animation was a mistake
>>93699675
Will it cause the crash of computer animated films?
>>93699675
Maybe they will make a sequel to brave little toaster with new appliances from 2017 and they can bombard children with themes of death and nihilism and stuff again.
Sausage Party is on Netflix
I have a morbid curiosity telling me to watch it, but at the same time I don't want that shit to stink up my profile with "BECAUSE YOU WATCHED SAUSAGE PARTY, TRY THIS NEXT TURD"
>>93711766
>>93712851
yeah, I know that.
even if it weren't for "ironic" supporters, this movie is probably gonna do moderately well at LEAST.
no amount of piracy out of spite (from us at least) or shitting on this movie can change that, sadly.
>>93714502
The Emoji Movie is too big to fail. Hell, that seems like Sony's entire modus operandi when it comes to movies.

That's 90% of the marketing strategy behind these things
They flood the market with utter trash, then people pay out the ass just to see how trash it gets
Actually paying to see this movie is just adding fuel to the fire

Parents were a mistake
>>93699675
The only people who will want to watch it are children and people who will watch it ironically. Almost all of its advertising is done via YouTube ads targeting the online child audience. Thing is, modern children are tech-savvy and know to skip the ads. The movie will flop unless advertising increases in other areas or enough people watch it ironically.
>>93718111
Forgot to mention that regardless of its success it will receive an average rating of 3/10 or lower.

>>93704949
I think the concern is how much money the movie has made before release. Spotify and Candy Crush have already paid Sony a hefty sum for their brands to show up in the movie. It's going to have to really flop to lose money.
If this movie does okay, expect even more brand deals in animation.
>>93714502
Sadly your right....
There is already a bunch of Emoji themed stuff that sells and people eat it up.

This movie it aimed towards kids, who fucking love this kind of shit. It's not gonna flop. If anything it'll show other companies they can make a movie off literally anything. There's gonna be a Candy Crush movie, Farmville movie, a movie about the Android mascot, etc.
