Flippy 14,150 Posted June 23, 2025 Share Posted June 23, 2025 This was such a beautiful film! A kid obsessed with space and wanting to get abducted by aliens? Sold. I ugly cried from the beginning and could relate to it more than I expected 😠gonna try to watch it again!

SimonBaetens 9,425 Posted June 23, 2025 Share Posted June 23, 2025 I haven’t seen a single trailer for this on tv or online when you're lonely, I'll be lonely too / https://www.last.fm/user/SimonBaetens Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SevenWonder 4,731 Posted June 23, 2025 Share Posted June 23, 2025 I'll take my nephew in a couple of weeks. It looks fantastic. Sucks it bombed ala Joker. Silver lining: Maybe Pixar's Mayhem is coming? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RudraCNG 15,506 Posted June 23, 2025 Share Posted June 23, 2025 I mean I didn't even know this film existed. Probably Disney didn't do like 10% of the promo they do for their sequels/remakes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StarstruckIllusion 53,523 Posted June 23, 2025 Share Posted June 23, 2025 But I thought it was bc they were woke, and a movie starring a white male kid would serve. Would Conservatives lie? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

princedeeblebleble 3,447 Posted June 23, 2025 Share Posted June 23, 2025 if it weren't for this thread, I wouldn't know of it's existence.. didn't see any ig stuff, or at the cinemas or around town posters.. so no wonder.  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndiGaga 7,230 Posted June 23, 2025 Share Posted June 23, 2025 Did it really bomb? Still quite high numbers I think? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emvee 8,789 Posted June 23, 2025 Share Posted June 23, 2025 Disney sabotaged this film. First they kept postponing it and then they didn’t have enough faith in it to give it proper promo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karl 3,562 Posted June 23, 2025 Share Posted June 23, 2025 It's had really good reviews as well, such a shame. People just don't go to the cinema anymore for original stuff, they want familiarity and know what they are getting when they spend the money, hence all the existing IP crap we get, smaller films are better going to streaming imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ModernEcstasy 9,278 Posted June 23, 2025 Share Posted June 23, 2025 I think this comes down to 2 factors. Ticket prices are way too high now. Unless it’s a movie people really want to see, they’ll wait for this to release on Disney plus in a couple months. I also believe it’s down to lack of imagination/ fun. Pixar movies used to be about Monsters, talking fish and Toys which come alive. Movies about humans (I’m assuming Elio is that) just aren’t as interesting Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defmix100 7,015 Posted June 23, 2025 Share Posted June 23, 2025 I don't think I've seen an animated movie from the past 10 years but I've seen ads for this one a lot and thought it looks like a really good one, but I'd never go to the cinema for an animated movie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
