The HTTYD movies are right there alongside it, Hiccup losing his leg in the first one, his father in the second.
Hiccup's funeral speech for Stoick is so poignant

Don't you find out the killer pretty early on?

80 for Brady had a budget of 28 million and this far has made 34 million.
How much was spent on marketing? Not sure.
If it has profited, it has done razor thin margins.

Reply to comment by GMW-5610 in Why doesn't Sony have a major streaming service? by Almighty_Push91
Is Apple TV even that profitable? I never hear people talk about it and I doubt it's a driving force in people staying or moving over to apple. It just seems to be there. Obviously Itunes has its place but that's because its existed before streaming services were a thing but it never took off on other hardware companies. Spotify has taken the crown in that department. I'm sure it's a more popular app on the iPhone compared to iTunes.
Seeing all the financial info on streaming services it seems like Sony made the right move.
I don't like anyone is clamoring it rival Apple in the streaming department.

It doesn't change much. You can still watch.

I think the success of films like 80 for Brady and The Lost City proves this is a completely wrong line of logic.
Just because the studios have convinced themselves it's true, doesn't mean it is.
People only go see spectacle movies in theaters because there aren't many choices to be made on that front anymore.

for sure, good movies are more than their twist/reveal

It’s telegraphed pretty early on, but it’s not a formulaic whodunnit. It’s more about how things go down and how the characters deal with it. Watch it. Totally worth it.

If somehow you already know who the killer is without having seen or knowing any of the details, then absolutely it is worth a watch. The best part of the movie is finding out how the situation even came to be as it’s not as straightforward as you’d think.

No. Pacific Rim was also 100% converted. We converted it using 2D plates. We didn’t even have access to the VFX assets back then like we do now.

Sure. You know how all your favorite movies end but you still rewatch them, right? There's more to enjoy about a movie than its surprises.

So we have confirmation, the CGI in Pacific rim is native 3d whilst the live action is converted? Because the work on that movie was incredible, in part inspired by the work on Titanic 3d as well

For sure the ride is worth it, great actors and performances paired with witty writing and a great gothic setting.
Glass Onion is a sequel but it’s completely unrelated to Knives Out, the only thing that carries over is the detective character but they don’t reference the first movie at all from what I remember.
Both are well worth watching and just a fun time!

Reply to comment by Positive-Source8205 in I hated the film 'Nope' by jonah_wilkie
Surely everyone likes "good" movies, it's just highly subjective what that means. I agree that Signs is similar in that it doesn't explain a ton about the alien. But it's also way more obsessed with telling a story clearly than breaking from film conventions and focusing more on the allegory. I think Us did this too, but imo Nope was more successful in how it did it.
What i'm trying to get at is, and i'm just curious, are there any movies you like that don't explain their plot entirely? Neon Genesis? Tree of Life? Even Perfect Blue gets pretty out there.
