    And that one isn't even Disney! Everyone wants in on that weird jungle adaptation game.

    Don't forget WB also has their own Jungle Book next year, one formerly intended as an Iñárritu project, oddly enough.

    Yeah, opening against The BFG though, which will have a big family pull I'd imagine.

    I don't know if it will do well, but Kubo is one of my most anticipated films of the year.

    I dunno either. The most recent Laika films made ~$55million. Might be a good pick too early. I don't have a feel for what some of these minor sequels and comedies are likely to do.

    Sausage Party could make $120 million. It could make $20 million. I avoided it because I didn't have a clue what to compare it to.

    So excited about Kubo. Laika is a refreshing alternative to the other major animation studios.

    I wonder if there's a team that will end up with a billion dollars this season.

    This might be more wishful than anything, since I want it to be among the best things released in the coming months, but I just don't know who it's actually for other than me (us):

    And I simply had to fix Popstar's subtitle proper double-negative joke grammar.

    Haha, my ID3 tag-correcting form of OCD urged me to change it. And all the other forms too.

    In my history with this game, it has only happened one time.
