[chlmtsdoll]

My dramatic ass waking up this morning to Zendaya staring in a NOLAN film with Tom along with so many other projects, Wonka 2 and Dune 3 start filming in 2026 confirmed, Z absolutely about to sweep at awards season, and my best friends back together again (Z, Mike and Josh) bc I needed this joy after such a fucked up week.

Themthere solo projects update!!

Wonka fans and Simon fans might wanna see this!

Wonka 2 has reportedly been given the green light and production set to begin in 2026!

We don’t know who is returning as of yet when it comes to the cast yet

I’ll update you all as soon as we hear more 🤍

[ladypiscesmoon]

Hey again. Will you add Timmy 2025 year ahead to the list? Since it's been announced that Dune 3 & Wonka 2 are pushed back to 2026, I'm curious to see how next year plays out. Will he take a longer break or take projects where he's more behind the scenes (i.e. producer only). Thanks if you decide to add him😊

Yes, I will add Timmy, but I will start the year aheads in December. Next reading will be Paul Mescal

So far, the 2024 animated domestic box office shows me one thing...

If you want a big gross, it's still a sequels/franchise game with this medium at the movies, post-COVID outbreak.

KUNG FU PANDA 4 really kicked things off theatrically, and took in $57m over its early March opening weekend, and INSIDE OUT 2 sits among the big leagues with its colossal $154m opening.

Anything more original or based on an untested IP... Same situation as 2022 and 2023, really. Small openings, but if audiences like 'em, then... Leggy runs. See BAD GUYS, MIGRATION, etc.

Speaking of MIGRATION... Most of the first quarter of the year was MIGRATION's post-holiday legs, as it was an audience favorite and was literally one of the only movies to take the family to during the winter... If they hadn't seen WONKA already. Fitting for a movie about ducks, ahem, migrating to a place where it's warmer. It's like FROZEN: Make an animated movie about characters in a cold place wanting things to be warm again, and release it near Thanksgiving/Christmas... Really pushes those winter blues away. (Unless you like winter.)

IF, with its CG cartoon characters, was a real surprise opening at $33m and legging its way past $100m domestic. That has been acknowledged by some of the press, even if it'll still be a "flop" in Hollywood math at the end of the day. The adult, and even older adult/senior turnout, that I see for this one at the cinema I work at... All childless... Something about this movie has struck a chord with audiences in a way a lot of recent animated family movies seemingly haven't. I guess live-action just does make it easier to digest for some...

Elsewhere, THE GARFIELD MOVIE scored $24m for its three-day and has legged itself nicely despite the existence of both IF and INSIDE OUT 2. It's an agreeable little movie, I found it to be alright. Whether it's faithful to the spirit of the comic strip (and many cartoon adaptations, particularly from the era where Lorenzo Music voiced Garfield) or not, the families have consistently chosen this one weekend-to-weekend. Cartoon, cats and dogs, slapstick, recognizable characters even if you don't read funnies in the papers, fits the bill just enough.

DESPICABLE ME 4 will kick off the second half, and should be big. Gang's back together, as it's not a prequel, could make MINIONS numbers on opening weekend or around the unadjusted amounts of 2 & 3 ($83m and $72m respectively), sure to explode worldwide too. Illumination hasn't had a financial miss yet. DESPICABLE ME 4 also looks to be their newest movie for a long while, as nothing is scheduled for 2025 (first time they've skipped a year not counting the early COVID years, MINIONS 2 and SING 2 were made for 2020 in mind), and the MARIO sequel drops in April of 2026.

TRANSFORMERS ONE and THE WILD ROBOT open close to each other in September, but I suspect both will open okay and then leg it out from there. GARFIELD and IF co-existed fine together, and they currently co-exist fine with INSIDE OUT 2. If audiences like them and money's not too tight, they'll both make back their budgets. I'd imagine neither of them cost too much... And honestly, I'm here for it. I'm totally okay with a bunch of animated movies making sub-$100m totals domestically and around $150-300m worldwide, and still making back their money. The antithesis of what the Diz wants out of seemingly any movie they put out.

On the subject of smaller titles: Anime titles continue to do their business, too, i.e. new DEMON SLAYER clipshow, the SPY X FAMILY movie. Year after year, more so than ever before I'd argue. Give 'em a wide release for a few weeks, the base will show up.

MOANA 2 is sure to be massive, MUFASA I think gets saved by worldwide grosses and Christmas legs, SONIC 3 should do great, and then there's THE WAR OF THE ROHIRRIM. I think that'll be an interesting one to track, I don't think it's primed to be an opening weekend winner despite being a LORD OF THE RINGS film. Remember, SPIDER-VERSE 1 opened with an okay $35m in the December frame, MUTANT MAYHEM with $28m. LORD OF THE RINGS is largely associated with live-action for most audiences, despite there being a few animated adaptations made well beforehand. THE DAY THE EARTH BLEW UP, should it actually get the theatrical release GFM has been gunning for, I think opens small too but then legs it up... Again, I hope they make back their budgets, once again showing that little guys are every bit as important as the big guns. It's just cool that movies like ROHIRRIM and EARTH BLEW UP are getting theatrical releases to begin with, that would've been unheard of ten years ago.

Maybe 2025 changes course, and we see more original stuff open higher than usual post-outbreak. ELIO is the one I continue to be curious about, as it's Pixar's second-ever original movie to get a theatrical release post-outbreak, after ELEMENTAL... Which despite its legs, Disney now deems a flop. Pixar films used to get $45m+ on opening weekend down pat with the originals, the last to do that was COCO was back in 2017. ONWARD fell behind at $38m, cut right off by the pandemic a weekend into what should've been its run. Prior to COCO, INSIDE OUT made $90m on its opening weekend, and BRAVE made $66m. Not too shabby!

For some more context, we'll do Pixar originals starting w/ MONSTERS, INC. back in 2001, the first original of theirs to crack $40m on opening weekend:

MONSTERS, INC. (2001) - $62m

FINDING NEMO (2003) - $70m

THE INCREDIBLES (2004) - $70m

CARS (2006) - $60m

RATATOUILLE (2007) - $47m

WALL-E (2008) - $63m

UP (2009) - $68m

BRAVE (2012) - $66m

INSIDE OUT (2015) - $90m

THE GOOD DINOSAUR (2015) - $39m

COCO (2017) - $50m

ONWARD (2020) - $38m

ELEMENTAL (2023) - $29m

Does ELIO return to the days where a Pixar original could almost easily make $45-70m on opening weekend? Or is it ELEMENTAL redux, and Iger arbitrarily tries to find some other thing to blame the failure on?

2025's kinda sparse when it comes to these kinds of animated movies. Everything else - not counting sequels like BAD GUYS 2, ZOOTOPIA 2, and SEARCH FOR SQUAREPANTS - is associated with some pre-existing franchise, like SMURFS and GABBY'S DOLLHOUSE. There's also DOG MAN, the book series by Dav Pilkey, a spin-off of his iconic CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS series. DreamWorks adapted that into a movie back in 2017. No features are set for March, April, or May, possibly in anticipation of an animation strike very soon. July and October are also without a new theatrical animated movie at the moment. WILDWOOD, from Laika, is without a distributor or release date, but it's eyeballing 2025. That'll be their first feature since MISSING LINK, that came out in 2019, whoooaaa...

Either that, or it's more of the same. I think post-outbreak, audiences are still pretty choosy with theater visits. Again, because of money and because your experience could very well suck and be a waste of $60+ for a family of four. It frustrates me to no end that the press natters on and on about movies being the death of movie theaters, when it's the damn movie theaters themselves. Like an elephant in the room, or in the auditorium. The cinema chains are using an outdated, decaying model that doesn't serve audiences nor them. And I would know, I'm in those very trenches myself! Understaffed, poorly-equipped, management can be erratic, etc. Some of us break our backs so that anyone who comes in doesn't have a hangup about something.

But no, it's always the movies that have to do the work. You flop, it's your fault, or the marketing's fault. International Cinema Day was coined two years ago, in August 2022...

August 2022 was kind of a wasteland month. A lot of the new movies opened very badly, or merely just existed. Movies like EASTER SUNDAY, THREE THOUSAND YEARS OF LONGING, THE INVITATION, etc.... And on that low-price day... Every movie was jam-packed, down to the front rows... I dunno, making a gamble of an experience more affordable gets more people coming? Just a thought??

So, if anything, INSIDE OUT 2 doing as well as it did meant that people really wanted to see that movie. Despite their experience possibly sucking, they went in droves to see it. That was one worth gambling on. Much like BAD BOYS: RIDE OR DIE, much like KINGDOM OF THE PLANET OF THE APES, much like DUNE: PART TWO... But maybe people wouldn't narrow their choices to 3-4 movies a year if the experience was better and/or more affordable.

It would really serve animation well, methinks.

Timothée Chalamet, 28 ans : son baiser enflammé avec Gwyneth Paltrow, 52 ans

Après Dune 2 et Wonka, Timothée Chalamet poursuit son ascension dans le cinéma américain avec un nouveau tournage : Marty Supreme. Réalisé par Josh Safdie, ce long-métrage n’est pas prévu avant 2026. Mais ses acteurs principaux ont déjà commencé à tourner. Et une scène intense du film vient d’ailleurs d’être dévoilée sur les réseaux sociaux et dans la presse américaine.Marty Supreme n’est pas…

Guess who's back (et backupé dans le cloud loin de tumblr)?

Je crois que le monsieur il est mort

Charlie et la Chocolaterie - Netflix - 1h55 - 🇺🇸🍫🐿️

Je suis grand fan de Roald Dahl même si le monsieur est un immonde antisémite et donc j'ai adoré petit (et même moins petit) le roman dont est tiré ce film. Le petit Charlie est pauvre (Dickens pauvre pour ceux qui ont la réf) et il n'aime que deux choses dans la vie, sa famille et le chocolat qu'il ne peut manger qu'une fois par an. Quand le mystérieux Willy Wonka, le plus grand chocolatier du monde organise un concours pour visiter sa chocolaterie vous vous demandez bien qui c'est qui va gagner le ticket d'or...

Le film est une adaptation (trop?) fidèle d'un livre pour enfant. Tim Burton maîtrise son sujet, la production design est au top, les enfants jouent pas mal et les petites chansons sont entrainante. Il faut parler aussi de Johnny Depp qui est absolument terrifiant en Wonka, à l'époque il jouait encore un peu dans ses films (maintenant il ne fait plus que se jouer lui même...). Au global le film est un compte, un poil trop sage par rapport à l'original car trop respectueux du matériaux d'origine.

6/10

Ah mais ouais il a fait 13 films non?

Le Garçon et le Héron - 君たちはどう生きるか - Cinéma - 2h04 - 🇯🇵🪿🏹

Le plus grand réalisateur de film d'animation japonais (le plus grand c'est Ozu deal with it) revient après un énième départ à la retraite pour ce qui ressemble quand même à son dernier film (83 ans tout de même). Le film est un film "à tiroirs" donc il ne faut pas s'attendre à tout comprendre "ceux qui cherchent à comprendre mourrons" annonce rapidement le procédé narratif.

Le flm est d'une virtuosité folle et passe en 4ème vitesse l'ensemble des obsessions du maître Myazaki (le rapport de l'Homme à la nature, les civilisations anciennes, la technologie, les avions, les anciennes créatures, la maternité...) parfois un poil trop vite. Au final on pleure beaucoup si on a un rapport particulier (comme toute ma génération) à ces films qui ont participé à donner à l'animation ses lettres de noblesse.

8/10

C'est la suite du précédent en attendant le suivant

Les trois mousquetaires: Milady - Cinéma - 1h54 - 🇫🇷🤺⚜️

La suite direct de "Les trois mousquetaires: D'artagnan" continue de dérouler la fresque épique de la littérature française, le chef d’œuvre de Dumas... Les trois mousquetaires. Ici c'est le siège de La Rochelle et les conséquence de l'assassinat déjoué dans l'opus précédent. Comme il a été tourné dans la foulée et bien c'est un peu la même chose.

Toujours incapable de filmé une baston correctement Mr. Bourboulon (si il n’existait pas on voudrait l'inventer) se réveille dans les 12 dernières minutes où finalement une formidable baston dans le feu se révèle plaisante à regarder. Au global le film est moins intéressant que le premier car plus linéaire. La fin annonce un troisième opus, à mon avis ça va être compliqué au vu du box office, mais comme Netflix l'a acheté à l'international (je crois) ça devrait le faire en 2026.

6/10

Pour les plus attentifs vous remarquerez que les liens de cette Newsletter ne sont plus vers The Movie DB mais vers LetterBoxd. C'est du lobbying honteux puisque je tente de me détacher d'amazon et de son toujours plus complet IMDb.

Bisous.

(1) 25th December is the absolute sweet spot for prestige films. And the roll out will start in other countries from the 8th of December (source:IMDb) to build up good word-of-mouth hype.

(2) The benefit isnt just that it stays fresh in Oscar voters' minds (the Oscars are on 3rd March 2025) it also means the promotional interviews etc wont go on an insanely long amount of time. [*Hope to see Timmy on Graham Norton's Xmas show*]

(3) Given that Timmy will possibly have another biopic coming out next year (the ping pong film MARTY SUPREME) the producers of A COMPLETE UNKNOWN are wise to try to put some distance between that film and this one. And btw Timmy's one of the producers on ACU. If ACU and MS both competed for Oscars in 2026 that would just dilute the chances of either performance being properly appreciated. It's better for everyone if ACU competes for 2025 Oscars and MARTY SUPREME is his shot at awards in 2026.

(4) Skipping film festivals and opening on Xmas does show a certain confidence in the film. Theyre counting on Bob Dylan fans, people who need a family-friendly movie for the holidays, people who enjoyed WONKA last Xmas. (Lest we forget WONKA sold tickets like crazy so December film-goers know him a bit.)

Can't believe they are moving so fast with the release for ACU. I guess they don't need a whole ass year of post production for the movie and don't want to wait for the film festival circuit.

I guess so

Android de O a Z: quais serão os nomes das próximas versões do sistema? - A Notícia do Dia

Você já deve estar mais do que cansado de saber que a Google anuncia seus sistemas operacionais portáteis com nomes de doces há um bom tempo — e nisso já vimos desde bombas de creme (Eclair) até os chocolates KitKat.

A cada nova versão, o nome do Android é escolhido com uma letra acima da usada na geração anterior: Jelly Bean (4.2), KitKat (4.4), Lollipop (5), Marshmallow (6)…

E depois do Marshmallow, todos esperavam que a versão 7 surgisse com um nome bem conhecido dos consumidores de todo o mundo: Nutella. Mas a verdade é que o sistema chegou ao mercado com o nome de “Nougat”, sendo esta a atual distribuição mais recente.

Ainda não podemos dizer se a Google vai usar os nomes de doces do Android até chegar à letra Z, mas essa é uma possibilidade que não pode ser descartada. E se isso acontecer, quais serão os nomes das próximas versões do sistema operacional? Nós fizemos alguns exercícios para pensar nisso por você.

Dá uma olhada no que a gente separou e depois nos conte se você acha que temos chance de acertar algumas das tentativas! Ah… Aproveita também e diz o que você pensa que está por vir!

E chegando neste ano, “Android O”

Este é mais um ano em que a Google pode conseguir uma boa parceria com as empresas alimentícias norte-americanas. Se nós já vimos o KitKat alguns anos atrás, não seria surpreendente vermos o “Android Oreo” sendo lançado em 2017. É claro que isso depende não apenas da Google, mas é certo que seria uma ótima jogada para o marketing da companhia.

Caso a empresa opte por nomes mais “livres”, não restam opções muito numerosas. Mesmo assim, há algumas que vêm sendo cogitadas e merecem ser citadas, como Oatmeal (um mix de aveias muito comum nos Estados Unidos) e Oliebol (um bolinho holandês que também faz relativo sucesso).

Não faltam opções para o “Android P”

Se tivéssemos um capacitor de fluxo, 2 litros de combustível atômico e um Delorean, poderíamos voltar no tempo para fazer com que o português se tornasse o idioma internacional só para que o Android P se chamasse “Paçoquita”. Infelizmente, isso não é possível, mas há várias possibilidades (quase tão) legais.

Uma delas é o “Popsicle” (Picolé), que pode surgir como um Android refrescante e que vai trazer mudanças nunca antes vistas… Quem sabe um “Pop-Tarts”? E o “Peanut Butter” também seria bem interessante, ainda mais considerando o apreço dos norte-americanos pela manteiga de amendoim. E se a Google quiser algo mais sofisticado? Aí é o “Petit Gateau” que pode fazer as honras.

Só brasileiros para um “Q” decente

Que os americanos nos desculpem, mas você imagina um Android Q chegando ao mercado com algum nome bom? Só se for Quidim ou Queijadinha, mas aí eles não vão entender…

Reprodução/Wikipédia

E chegamos ao “Android R”

Quando o Android chegar ao “R”, teremos mais uma letra com poucas opções interessantes para o mercado. Já há quem cogite que veremos os “Android Red Velvet Cake” — lembrando que o “Red Velvet” ficou bastante em destaque em 2015 e 2016, mas é difícil que isso se mantenha até 2020.

Um bolo Red Velvet! Reprodução/Wikipédia

Outra possibilidade está em mais um Android patrocinado. Se isso acontecer, será que seria uma boa ideia esperar pelo “Android Reese’s”?

Por favor, façam um “Android Skittles”

Na hora do “S” é possível que a Google opte por Sundae, Sorvete de Limão, Sorvete Napolitano, Sorvete de Morango, Sorv… “Tá bom, já entendemos!” Mas o que a gente quer mesmo é ver o Android Skittles chegando aos smartphones. Não dá para negar!

Ainda tá longe, mas tem um “T” a caminho

Podemos esperar que o “Android T” ganhe alguns nomes bem legais. Caso a Google opte por parcerias com empresas, Twinkle e Twix são duas das opções mais prováveis. Mas o destaque deve ser bem mais generalista e interessante: Tiramisu. Esse doce maravilhoso, saboroso, extasiante e magnífico saiu da Itália para conquistar o mundo todo — seria ele a lasanha dos doces?

Reprodução/Wikipédia

Para quem não sabe, ele é feito com biscoitos de champagne, aroma de café, recheio de “creme delícia” (nome não oficial) e chocolate polvilhado.

Vamos pular o “U” porque não tem doce nenhum com essa letra!

Se tiver, conta pra gente! Mas é possível que o Android com doces acabe por aqui!

Se ainda houver doces, o V será de…

Vingança! Não, gente! Calma!

É mais provável que ele surja como “Vanilla” (Baunilha), mesmo! Lembrando que há vários doces que podem ter nomes variados desse ingrediente — que é genuinamente delicioso.

Chegando ao “W”

E quando chegamos à letra “W”, fica bem difícil não pensar nos “Waffles” belgas que podem ser feitos no evento de lançamento. Se fosse aqui no Brasil, podia rolar um Android Wafer, inspirado nas famosas bolachas.

Reprodução/Wikipédia

Por outro lado, se a Google fizer parceria com a Warner, fica bem fácil imaginar o lançamento do “Android Wonka” sendo colocado no mercado junto com uma sequência de “A Fantástica Fábrica de Chocolate”.

X, Y e Z????

Nós já trouxemos os doces do Android até 2025! Se realmente houver doces até aqui, é bem difícil que o ano de 2026 receba as mesmas ideias de batismo. Pois nem mesmo os  analistas internacionais mais renomados conseguem imaginar como seriam os nomes do sistema com X, Y e Z. Você sabe algo que se encaixe nessas letras? Mesmo que encontre, é difícil que tenha apelo comercial, não é mesmo?

Lembrando que Yakisoba não é doce, né!?

……

Você imagina até que ano a Google vai continuar investindo em batizados doces para o seu sistema operacional portátil? Compartilhe com a gente as suas opiniões sobre esse tema.
