Hoppers Predictions
Trailer is out. The less crowded release schedule of March should help it to do better than Elio, but I thought the trailer was just ok, and actually weaker than the first trailer for Elio was back in 2023.
It will need STRONG reviews and lots of marketing to do much more than 100m, IMO.

Re: Hoppers Predictions
Having a movie about rabbits release around Easter time has been a successful strategy in the past. I bet this doubles up Elio, though that is still a far cry from peak pixar numbers.

Re: Hoppers Predictions
The concept looks like more of a hit than Elio to me.

I think it has potential.

Re: Hoppers Predictions
there aren’t any rabbits or bunnies in the trailer though, the protagonist “hops” into the body of what looks like a beaver.
should be more successful than Elio but I don’t know what it’ll take for Pixar to have a big original hit again. Probably not this. Between $100m and $150m would be solid.
