✨ Ass Fat ✨ 9,598 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 I mean dont get me wrong the movie is amazing and it did well but in Disneys standard the success was mediocre..... Despite the amazing critical reviews its box office is only $500M+ and it's already nearing Feb. After releasing Frozen around the same time which is in winter it was a major success so I thought if they released Moana around summer it would've done amazing what are your thoughts?

ember 8,327 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Aw I've never really considered the success of the film, but Moana was adorable and the soundtrack was AMAZING. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bebela 541 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Well for me it's summer. But idk, I really liked the movie and the songs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Your Juan and only 5,432 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Considering it's budget it did an amazing job. Also you shouldn't compare it to Frozen but compare it to other Disney films in the 10s which is on par with other anination films. It might sell more than Tangled. Moana might have a summer DVD release as well. I don't think they'll ever be a successful Disney animation film like Frozen for a long time.

sakurahanabira 6,633 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 Moana was released around Thanksgiving. November isn't a winter month, it's an autumn month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC3 3,339 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 You can't compare it to Frozen cause no other animated film comes close to the money it made and it's impact in recent times You have to compare it to the other Disney films, and it actually did around the same as those. It made more than Wreck it Ralph and its close and might also surpass Tangled Moana was given the same release time as Frozen anyway, the difference that Frozen became a phenomenon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOYLUV 638 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 the movie already have $500M+ And has not debuted yet in some markets around the world so no I'm sure it will end with much more than this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUILD 3,195 Posted January 25, 2017 Share Posted January 25, 2017 That would have been cool and I do think it might play into the public's psyche. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The home video release for Moana is slated for the end of March/April, like Rogue One, both Disney films. Also that obsession to surpass the thousand million dollar barrier........

StarShapedGummy 11,380 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 it scored 3 #1 weeks. it actually did pretty well for an animated disney movie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solfa 7,163 Posted January 26, 2017 Share Posted January 26, 2017 The problem is that you are comparing it with Frozen, whose mega-popularity was a surprise to everyone, you should compare with the movies in the Disney Revival era: The Princess and the Frog: $267M Tangled: $592M ) Winnie the Pooh: $33M Wreck-it Ralph: $471M Frozen: $1,274M Big Hero 6: $658M Zootopia: $1,024M Moana: $511M Moana is doing perfectly fine, perfectly average.

BabyBu 209 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 IMO, yes. The whole time I was watching the film, even though the animation is beautiful, I couldn't get into the beach concept. Even though it is not technically Winter, it is still far from Summer that it took me out of the film. Of course it can't be compared to Frozen because the was a phenomenon on its own, but I do feel lie it's another Milan/Pocahontas where (besides critics and Disney fans) it didn't hit that well with the public.
