Trailer: Sausage Party (TV Spot #1)

From the guys that brought you This is the End comes an animated feature so sliced and diced and almost fried that you have to wonder why you wouldn’t want to see it!!

Sausage Party released a new TV spot last night and it just makes me want to see this movie even more then I did when I saw the Red Band trailer months ago.

Disney has released the first teaser for their upcoming animated feature, Moana staring the voices of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson and Auli’i Cravalho’

Moana tells the story our titular hero (Cravalho), who teams up with Maui (Johnson), a sort of has-been demi-god, in order to complete an epic quest on the high seas. Monsters and various pitfalls will come between them and their endgame, with plenty of adventure and life lessons to learn from.

Moana hits theaters on November 23, 2016.

6/6/2016 – Box Office Breakdown

Back for another week, the event that all have been asking for, I bring you the Box Office Breakdown!

Geek for E_Box Office Breakdown

  1. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Out of the Shadows (new) – The Turtles are back….along with April and Casey Jones! Not a bad performance in the box office to take the number one spot this week.
  2. X-Men: Apocalypse – The X-Men are back….along with Magneto and Apocalypse (now with less Ivan Ooze). Second week out and had a giant drop in sales by 66% from last week.
  3. Me Before You (new) – So…um…..anyone know what this one is about and why it’s even here? Out for a week and made the third spot, it will drop fast over the next week.
  4. Alice Through the Looking Glass – Alice may want to stop visiting Wonderland as this movie is dropping faster then a brick off of a building. Time for Disney to put a fork in this franchise because it is DONE!
  5. The Angry Birds Movie – Hey, its still hanging in there so three weeks out and still top five is a good sign. The box office drop….not so much.

News and notes:

  • Andy Sandberg and the Lonely Island Boys have a movie out there called Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping and it premiered in the eighth spot. Maybe these spoof movies are only good on HBO or in short-spots on SNL because the full length movie business isn’t working out.
  • Zootopia will be out on on Blu-Ray and Digital Media soon so says the commercial I saw this morning. Still making money 14 weeks since release date.

5/31/2016 – Box Office Breakdown

Welcome back to the new (and hopefully back every week) “Box Office Breakdown” where I’ll give you the top five movies of the weekend as well some some tip-ins now and then.

Geek for E_Box Office Breakdown

  1. X-Men: Apocalypse (new) – First week out and took the top spot over the holiday weekend. FOX getting the win with their Marvel owned characters.
  2. Alice Through the Looking Glass (new) – First week out and considered a BUST by industry standards. First question is who asked for this sequel as Alice in Wonderland wasn’t universally received? Next is has no one noticed that Johnny Depp’s star is slowly sinking?
  3. The Angry Birds Movie – Dropped from first to third because let’s be honest, Rovio is milking this franchise for all its’ worth and the target audience went last week to see it. Count on this to keep sliding down the charts faster then Sony wants.
  4. Captain America: Civil War – Dropped from second to fourth but it is still making money.
  5. Neighbors 2: Sorority Rising – Dropped from third to fifth in it’s second week out. Neighbors was a funny movie but it was also a complete movie, there was no need for a sequel.

Honorable mentions: Zootopia has been out for 13 weeks and is still in the top 10. How’s that for some Disney longevity?
