Maybe I wasn't paying attention.... but when I saw the title of this thread, I thought it was a new project that had just been rumored or mentioned. And I was like "Well now, that's an interesting name for whatever 2D film is coming after The Snow Queen! :o :? :D "

Needless to say, I was disappointed. :(

So... I guess we won't be seeing "A Kiss Before Dying" in several years, after all.

:P

HAHAHA :lol: when I saw this Margos I thought the exact same thing, I just didn't want to post it! I Actually think that this would have been a great title for a new movie, but I guess no luck...

But I do think that PatF will do well domestically. It only needs another $20 million and it breaks even. And I'm sure it can happen (cross my fingers).

Mind if I join in crossing fingers?

I was thinking the same thing! :lol:

Anyway, I'll agree that it would be unwise for Disney to chuck hand-drawn due to the performance of the very first film it was brought back for . . . reopening the studio had to have been an investment they'll be looking to produce more films with.

Haven't you heard? It IS coming after The Snow Queen! 8) It's about a Princess who's cursed by an evil witch! Whenever she kisses anyone on the lips, they die. :o The only one who'll survive and break the curse is her true love. But she's so scared of killing potential true loves that she resigns to never kiss again. :cry: At least until she is kidnapped by the son of a Pirate King, who ravishes her and lived to tell the tale! ;) It's being directed by Mike Gabriel and Eric Goldberg and features seven new songs by Richard Sherman, marking his grand return to the Disney Animated Classics canon! :D

If you took any of that seriously, then you need to learn to only take me seriously when I say, "Seriously" somewhere in my post.

Well, TPatF has taken in a little over $707,000 dollars yesterday, totaling the gross to about $86.5 million. And I'm still praying that it makes it to at least the $100 million mark, if not regaining its budget domestically, so it won't be seen as an underperformer. Don't care if it's not a real word, BTW.

I saw it again for the second time last night & I must say that I enjoyed it a LOT more. Watching it the first time left me disappointed & underwhelmed but leaving the second viewing, I found myself thoroughly happy with the film as a whole. Even the hillbillies weren't as bothersome.

Maybe it's because the pacing didn't throw anything off because I was ready for it. I caught so much more after I just let myself go, threw out all the expectations & sat back and I highly recommend everybody else to do the same.

hearing talks of domestic vs. international earnings only serves to remind me of the New Line fiasco for some reason. :(

Don't worry. There's still time for the movie to earn money, hopefully over $100 million at least domestically, let alone gaining back its budget so people won't think it "underperformed".
