Starship Troopers should not be on this list, because it did not make a lot of money and it did not come out in 2019. It should however be a CoG episode. Do it or Disney wins.
See originally James and Mason were supposed to be a couple but the Disney higher ups wouldn't have it which is why they introduced Claire and the Tram. It's PC gone mad.
I love how objective Mason is when judging these Disney reboots. As a man who's never seen the animated films before he has no nostalgia for them. It's almost like he was bred to be the perfect podcast co-host and sent back in time...
Watching this on 12/10/2021 and I loved that after Spider-Man Far From Home it was said “but this could very much be reversed in the next movie” - literally the entire premiss of the next movie
Disney hit $11.1billion for 2019. Crazy new record. Now it'll be interesting to see what the headlines will be in 2020 when they have a 40-50% drop for the year.
@@biblicaladrian6007 Mulan, Black Widow, and Eternals each have a chance of being huge hits. Wouldn't surprise me if 'Raya and the Last Dragon' is also. Disney won't be worried, they planned for this. They purposely put all their biggest movies in 2019 to prop up their Disney+ content. They are fully prepared for the drop off, it's fine. But the headlines will spin it negatively anyway because they need those clicks.
@@turtato2155 Mulan should have been a guaranteed billion but now it's doubtful with the filming locale backlash, especially with most of the market practically taken off the board because of the coronavirus.
Crazy looking back at comments prior to the impact of Covid... But Disney+ was the best decision they could have made as a side project. The smaller stories to be told along side the larger MCU projects will give them years of content and $$.
So glad to hear y'all finally discuss How to Train Your Dragon after listening to the Best/Worst podcast episode and it never get mentioned. And now I know you've never seen it! It's definitely worth seeking out -- it's my favorite franchise film of the year.
I don’t always agree with your opinions on all of these movies, but you guys are always a riot. I chuckle through the entire video and usually usually get one or two good laughs in. Great content as always!
Everything came together for Disney this year and it obviously wont be repeated next. The first Toy Story in nearly a decade, A sequel to the biggest animated movie of all time, remakes of their 2 biggest movies of the 90s, and the culmination of both Marvel and Star Wars all in one year. Kinda crazy when you put it all together
A lot of the people requesting things in the comments seem to overlook that each Caravan has to be in some way correlated to something that is being released that week
@@nimblebimble Has to correlate? No.. no it does not. If you have followed this channel long enough you'd know there has been plenty of random, left field CoG content. It helps to have it related to a current realise, but that is far from being a hard and fast rule.
Having watched the subsequent 3 years of biggest box office hits 20,21,22 I think we can say that the pandemic was friggin awful for the film industry. The box-office numbers of the films for 2022 barely even compare with the profits from 2019.
What a monopoly really relies on is scarcity. IP is unlimited. Disney’s monopoly is on the finite number of screens. For example: they threaten theaters to not let them have Marvel or Star Wars if they don’t hold the live action remakes for a certain number of weeks.
No joke, I saw an article explaining that one of the biggest reasons lion king made so much money was because of Beyoncé’s fans. Even when they released the songs in different languages, most of them kept her vocals for her international fans. She was the last infinity stone 🤣
Jesus, I still need to see Hobbs & Shaw, Frozen 2, Aladdin, Terminator: Dark Fate, Doctor Sleep, (I’m not seeing Cats. Ever) and Spies in Disguise which actually looks pretty good.
It's really interesting to see how far a movie can get based on the universe it takes place in and how it's predecessors can carry a piece of trash through the box office ( Star Wars, Captain Marvel, etc. )
Endgames budget makes sense as they hired over a dozen companies to do the CGI for the movie and plus the teams who worked on it finished it 2 *weeks* before the premiere. Although that budget is already large, it honestly feels like for all that work the budget should be upwards of 400 million.
Man Jokers' profits are insane. A billion plus on the budget of fiftyfive millions is gonna make it the most profitable movie of this year. Really great!
On the point of the elementals in frozen two: water horse draws roots from Greek mythology, the hippocampus; the salamander was a mythical creature that could live in fire (thus its name translating into fire lizard).
Now those are some relevant keywords used in your tags. This was definitely "First We Feast" with "Cook (Profession) Sean Evans" and John Boyega eating spicy wings"
Unpopular opinion, but I'm glad the "Aladdin" and "Lion King" remakes did very well in the box office, which allowed Guy Ritchie and Jon Favreau to join the billionaire dollar club along with Anna Boden and Ryan Fleck (Captain Marvel) and Jon Watts (Spider-Man: Far From Home). Both of these directors have made a lot of awesome movies in their career, and I'm glad they managed to join the billion dollar club in the year 2019 with the Disney remakes. It's also nice to see that Ritchie is directing a crime-comedy film, and that Favreau has created a TV series well-loved by Star Wars fans.
I feel validated by your assessment of The Joker. I actually hated it. Thought it was terrible and contrived. That's a rare opinion, unless it's intended to be controversial.
It was just Disney’s year I think. 2020 will be way different they have more streaming wise on Disney+ then they do movie wise FAST 9 or Wonder Woman will prolly be the biggest I’m 2020
There were a few members of my audience that jumped on Marvel after solely watching Black Panther and came out of Infinity War saying WTF. It was funny.
Saw Frozen II; loved it. Geared more towards us ladies, what with the psychological drama and all that. As always, the songs were fantastic; still can't get the lullaby out of my head. The Lion King was way overrated. Avengers: Endgame, although not perfect, was a very good movie, definitely a big step above your usual "theme park" movie. ;)
Aladdin 2019 does not deserve to have made that much money. Aladdin 1992 set its own record back in the day, for being the animated movie to finally dethrone Snow White for highest grossing animated film (without inflation). It got immediately beat out by Lion King, but still. the original Aladdin is a massive spectacle and is still an incredibly fun and fantastic movie. the remake is soulless and boring in comparison.
Where did you get this list from? How to Train Your Dragon 3 hasn't been in the top 10 for months! Highest-grossing films of 2019 1 Avengers: Endgame - $2,797,800,564 2 The Lion King - $1,656,943,149 3 Frozen II - $1,375,174,529 4 Spider-Man: Far From Home - $1,131,927,996 5 Captain Marvel - $1,128,274,794 6 Toy Story 4 - $1,073,394,593 7 Joker - $1,068,946,521 8 Aladdin - $1,050,693,953 9 Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker - $1,005,323,801 10 Hobbs & Shaw - $758,910,100 Then you've got the two Chinese Films "Nezha" and "The Wandering Earth" taking up spots 11 and 12 on the list with Jumanji: The Next Level at #13 also AHEAD of HtTYD3!
Watching the beginning of Hobbs and Shaw, showing Hobbs's and Shaw's morning routine, Hobbs or Shaw, I don't know, Jason Statham, wakes up next to a woman, but gets dressed, makes breakfast for himself, and just leaves. Did anything happen to her when Hobbs and Shaw got branded as terrorists and the police most likely raided Hobbs's and Shaw's homes? One of the many things that bugged me about Hobbs and Shaw.
