Moana 2 DESTROYS Box Office Record - Can I Get A Ka-Ching?

[@terrychaney6050]

I’m not even surprised anymore. I need to create something mediocre just so I can become wealthy.

[@Liampaul95]

Maybe families and kids actually just enjoyed it?

[@alexanderdumas-]

5:07 “when your done in a couple seconds” either your dad was garbage or your mom was incredible 😂

[@indauroleal7953]

Well, you have to take into account that in the 80s and in the 90s Disney did not have competition. Now it competes directly with a battalion of studios and streaming platforms.

[@MrDman21]

What's even funnier, they show a TV spot for Moana 2 during Adam's video about Moana 2 😆

[@GFettJake]

Inside Out 2 is how you do a great sequel. Honestly out of all the Disney/Pixar trilogies I believe Inside Out is easily the one that makes the most sense. You continue to grow up and change. As you get older you have more complex emotions like Anxiety and you have to learn how to deal with those emotions. I mean the next one could follow her as a young adult maybe heading off to college. Then you can do one when she’s older and an adult. I know people might not like, but seriously out of all the Pixar trilogies, Inside Out is really the only one that actually makes sense and could really work because we continue to grow up and have new emotions.

[@Snooziac]

Inside Out is not a trilogy... there are only 2 movies...

[@linkjourney422]

Audiences reflection on these box office numbers…. Are we the Baddies

[@bofi1280]

Shit, not me.

[@lightdarksoul2097]

Eh I had a good time I can't say I care

[@twntodaywithniall7702]

i took my 77 year old grandma to watch at cinema and she never goes cinema last went cinema for mamma Mia and she had a lovely time

[@PrinceMono676]

Awww bless you granny 💙

The market has spoken, and this is the garbage we want to consume. The question shouldn't be, should they do this, the question should be, why are they bothering to reshoot Captain America 4 a third time, when they could have easily made Moana 3 with just that reshoot money ? The kids don't care, they will consume anything colorful with a halfway decent plot, woke or not. I bet the Snow White remake also makes mega bucks. Honestly, this is the Disney salvation, since there is no end to the actual children's market, and not the adult children that consume all the star wars and marvel drek.

[@DominickSpano]

I saw it. As a grown man to me it was whatever. I don't usually use this expression, but it really did seem like a nothing burger. At the end I didn't even know that the third act happened. Heck. But if kids like it, great. And to be clear for me at the end of the day it was an okay movie. Just okay, just passable.

[@alexanderdumas-]

I just went to Hawaii for the first time and that CHEHOOOO makes so much more sense 😂

[@lightdarksoul2097]

Is it a saying there

[@rmarkley79]

Adam, clever girl, love the play on words in the thumbnail!

[@JumpingJack6]

Was it woke? If not, then I can understand why is is so successful... people are starved for something normal, even if it is not any good.

[@cheriegoldie7179]

Yeah this movie is meh... the money is because everyone loved the first movie and was hoping for the same.... Maybe they'll put more effort into the third one

[@Toeaiga-strong]

It might of not checked everything everything off your bucket list. But the people and culture that it did represent definitely came through for us. I think y’all forget about that when y’all doing your little movie reviews and throwing shade at our representation!!! I guess it’s your opinion but to US it doesn’t matter, but I’ll comment that you can see us Islander when we see people hate you n something that means a lot to us!

[@PrinceMono676]

That’s what they forget, they think Disney made this all for money! But us Pacific Islanders know they made the movie for us 😭 that’s what these reviewers forgot, ask the Pacific Islanders what they think!

[@justin-yx4jc]

i miss when their was actual none disney creative movies like balto cats cant dance quest for camelot etc those days are long gone. genz might as well be stuck in cg sequal reboot hell

[@tomleonard830]

Walt Disney made the cartoon short The Three Little Pigs and it was incredibly successful. People were demanding a sequel to the cartoon and he said, "you don't top pigs with pigs", you make new original stuff.

[@lightdarksoul2097]

Well after they did try making sequels

[@tomleonard830]

@ for the most part, Disney steered away from sequels while Walt was alive.

[@hallowedclaret]

"...bada-bing, bada-penis..." 😀 Sounds about right. Was thoroughly unimpressed with Moana 2 buuut...I contributed to its rapid ascension (1x). Fooled me once---shame on Disney. Ughh. Lol, love this channel!

[@HazeyCazeyTv]

Now I think Snow White might actually… nvm

[@Cyberdine.Systems.Model-101]

I'm surprised you didn't praise Wild Robot, Adam? The perfect movie to contrast against this film!

[@AdamDoesMovies]

Great film! I certainly praised it in my review but you are right, I should have brought it up.

[@Cyberdine.Systems.Model-101]

@AdamDoesMovies Watched it last night and loved it. Very emotional.

[@mikhailthetenor3387]

"Hello I'm Mr. Disney film-making Executive and I like money" "What inspired you to make all these new-age sorto of not truly bad but mediocre sequels five years into original ones like Frozen 2, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, and Moana 2? " "The answer: Money!" Just like that Mr. Eugene Krabs's Krusty Krab 2 only in shown in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. We've just got to have money cha-ching.

[@lightdarksoul2097]

Wow it's like it's a business or something

[@blythewinter7679]

Based on the KZbin movie critics I really thought Moana 2 would underperform. I fear this means the sequel obsession is going to continue.

[@AdamDoesMovies]

What critics thought that? Moana 1 is massively popular and people still love Disney.

[@shawklan27]

Shocking that Internet critics don't represent the views of the broad public. Who knew!

[@allikohcysp]

It’s riding off the coattails of the first movie which was the most streamed movie on Disney + last year. I’ll get it for my kids when it hits streaming. Saving my money for Minecraft movie as I can’t afford taking my 6 kids to the cinemas this holiday season. And, they’re massive Minecraft fans too.

[@bythegrace7204]

Moana 2 is doing well because parents still want that holiday experience of taking their family to the movies and this is safe.

[@jiiiigsaw]

moana 1 is almost 10 years old, how is moana 2 a quick sequel

[@Snooziac]

It was quickly slapped together.

[@funnyguy7574]

Toy Story 2 was supposed to be a straight to DVD release I’m never to this day seen a movie 🍿 Theater so packed I know it was the before times but still

[@mariolafrance5806]

Next step : live action Moana. OMG

[@callmethecommentcountess9329]

I love Moana

[@ArcheonW]

One of the other reasons why this is working is that everything else just seems so shit in comparison to vanilla crap. This will do what other movies have done, make tons of money and fade into the ether if it has nothing of substance to it. That is what a good old silly kids movie can do nowadays, when the rest of the world seems like the four horsemen are sounding their horns.

[@Tha_Trigga]

But there's a huge risk if they go out on a limb with something really new and it bombs. Why not do both? The days of doing one movie and never revisiting that property are done.

[@justin-yx4jc]

if moana was clown people would still see her

[@lightdarksoul2097]

Man you need to rewrite

[@joshrosales7610]

When you're done in a couple seconds.... Hahahaha

[@LeoTheLion17]

Luv u adam

[@wisconsinking323]

I saw it earlier today, I liked it.

[@Ralph-id3xg]

I guess it means more work for Disney Canada!

[@Maddestmartigan]

CHEEEEEEHOOOOO

[@emhu2594]

Still cant believe people are showing up for a made for tv sequel that is not being well reviewed...is this riding on Wicked's coattails?

[@lightdarksoul2097]

Pfft it would be more the opposite this movie is blowing that one out of the water

[@yurikendal4868]

I lost interest in the 1st 5 seconds. I know the whole movie from begining to end just as the paddle hit the ground.

[@lightdarksoul2097]

You guessed Moana would die

[@davidsamuelson2089]

Looks like Iger was correct - make endless sequels, prequels & spinoffs & you’ll be at the top. No one wants to see anything new or intelligent.

[@lightdarksoul2097]

Who cares about that

[@wa-bu3ke]

It’s just inflation bro
