Elio just released in theaters and it is not doing well at the box office, whereas the Lilo and Stitch and HTTYD remakes did amazing at the box office, seems like fans don't actually want original content like what they're demanding for...

so you know when a lot of people
0:01
complain about the live action Snow
0:03
White Lilo and Stitch and How to Train
0:05
Your Dragon remakes and sequels like Toy
0:07
Story 5 they say things like "It's all
0:10
pointless disney is running out of
0:12
original content hollywood is creatively
0:14
bankrupt etc." Yet for some reason
0:16
whenever they pump out something new and
0:18
original they actually don't even want
0:20
to watch it they'll just watch remakes
0:21
and sequels instead so let's go over
0:23
some original Disney and Pixar films
0:26
that flopped at the box office first off
0:28
we'll start with Elio which is Pixar's
0:30
biggest flop yet opening with $21
0:32
million domestically which is such a
0:35
shame but ultimately not surprising
0:37
considering the fact that nobody even
0:38
knew this was happening so that's why
0:40
they didn't come to see it i had to do a
0:42
poll asking if they know the movie
0:44
exists 63% of my audience said yes 37%
0:48
said no now in reality more people would
0:50
have voted for no to like a 80% or
0:53
higher but still 37% people not knowing
0:56
this film exists is still bad it's not
0:59
like 1% people don't know this movie
1:01
exists which would have been great to
1:02
hear and I thought Ilio was a really
1:04
good movie now I'm not saying that this
1:06
is something mind-blowing or anything no
1:09
but just that it was a solid Pixar movie
1:11
that captures everything I love about
1:12
Pixar movies the animation and art style
1:15
is quite stunning the humor is pretty
1:17
solid and while the emotional beats
1:19
don't hit quite as hard it's still a
1:20
overall sweet movie and a solid outing
1:22
for Pixar only for it to completely flop
1:25
at the box office this trend has started
1:27
in 2023 with the sequel live action
1:29
remake hate and demand for original
1:31
content only for them to not care to
1:33
watch original movies even when they
1:35
should and it all comes to the poor
1:37
marketing even though there is demand
1:39
for Hollywood to make more new and
1:40
original stories and less sequels and
1:42
remakes they refuse to listen to the
1:44
fans so now they don't have the balls to
1:46
market the original content like they do
1:48
with the sequels and remakes like
1:50
Elemental one of the most creative Pixar
1:53
movies period it follow anthropomorphic
1:55
elements of nature and it's the first
1:57
romance movie from Pixar and it had a
1:59
slow start making $154 million during
2:02
its opening weekend which is way better
2:04
than what Elio is making at the time of
2:06
this recording but it's lower than a lot
2:08
of the previous films but then the
2:10
popularity starting increasing into
2:11
making $400 million worldwide making it
2:14
an all-time sleeper hit so Pixar overall
2:17
did an okay job at marketing this movie
2:19
so more and more people would go and see
2:21
it as the weeks went by i think this
2:23
movie overall was a solid like 6.5 out
2:26
of 10 it's a pretty decent movie just
2:28
not as good as something like the first
2:29
three Toy Story movies but still I think
2:32
this was the start of Disney and Pixar's
2:34
downfall as they would start to no
2:35
longer care about marketing original
2:37
content which would get even worse from
2:39
here as Disney's Wish movie made $64
2:42
million domestically and $255 million
2:45
which makes total sense because I
2:47
absolutely hated this movie so much with
2:49
a burning passion the songs are
2:51
absolutely terrible i actually did not
2:53
care a single bit about what was
2:54
happening in the story there's like
2:56
literally nothing good about this film
2:58
at all along with being a terrible way
3:00
to celebrate Disney's 100th anniversary
3:02
who literally became a corporate shell
3:04
of its former self but yeah these are
3:06
all the Disney and Pixar original movies
3:08
I can think of off the top of my head if
3:10
I missed some let me know in the
3:12
comments below but yeah we are not
3:14
living in real times in the 2020s people
3:16
complain about Hollywood milking the
3:18
Laxian remakes in sequels like Toy Story
3:21
5 and claimed that all they care about
3:22
is original content but at the same time
3:25
they refuse to market the films so they
3:27
don't care to watch original content as
3:29
they only care to watch the sequels and
3:31
remakes and trash on them for so long
3:33
saying like "We don't need this or
3:34
whatever." But anyways that's about it
3:37
