It’s an understatement to say Disney gets by with its powerful brands of Marvel, Lucasfilm, Pixar and Walt Disney Animation, but as one rival studio executive observes, “They’re attentive to them, and they know how to prime an audience” across their TV, radio, music and park outlets. This is evident in their latest Beauty And The Beast trailer drop which came close to a 2. M views (only to be beat by Uni’s Fate Of The Furious’ 1. M). Rather than drop Rogue One trailers last December before Force Awakens’ mass audiences, Disney delayed them until March, so as not to confuse moviegoers on the pic’s timeline. In the end, Rogue One became the second highest grossing film of the year at $4.

M in 1. 6 days, giving Disney the top three titles of 2. Finding Dory atop and Captain America: Civil War in third (see numbers below). Disney knows what it takes to survive in this fierce marketplace, and ensures they’re stoking the masses and critics alike. If there’s any lessons for Disney to learn, it’s that a title alone doesn’t create a stampede, i. Alice Through the Looking Glass which grossed 7.

Prince Of Persia. With Johnny Depp’s star on the decline, Disney marketing will need to work OT to ensure that Pirates Of The Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales isn’t a stiff. Disney also missed the mark with adult fare like The Finest Hours ($2. M) and The Light Between Oceans ($1.

Warner Bros is relishing its second- biggest domestic annual haul. The studio prides itself on the success of a full- bodied slate of uber- tentpoles (DC universe), mid- level pics (Sully at $1.

Rowling’s Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them is a great start for a franchise, though domestic did alright with $2. M. Many in the industry raise an eyebrow in regards to how WB spares no production and marketing expense, but the studio claims it’s their second- most profitable.

Another feather for WB: It opened movies successfully at offbeat times of the year and broke records (as did Disney with Jungle Book), i. Next year, if WB can get both critics and the masses to embrace its future DC universe unanimously, then it could realize $1. B hits like Marvel. Century Fox. 20th Century Fox at $1. B is +3% (if you count Fox Searchlight then it’s $1. B). The big takeaway for the studio is Deadpool, with rivalsin awe of how Fox pushed the bar with a subversive superhero movie and campaign, opening to summertime figures of $1.

That share will swell in years to come, especially with Uni’s purchase of Dream. Works Animation potentially rivaling Disney’s annual B. O. From a profit standpoint, the studio gives props to Blumhouse, whose The Purge: Election Year wound up being the highest- grossing installment in their horror series ($7.

Top 2. 0 Best Comedy Movies Of 2. Let’s take a look at the biggest and best comedy movies of 2. Funny this year has come in the form of De Niro as a dirty grandpa, Sacha Baron Cohen as a soccer hooligan, the return of Bad Santa, and a wild Sausage Party. That and so much more. Let us know in the comments what you think are the best comedy movies 2.

Here’s the rundown of every significant theatrical release, good and bad: – JANUARY –Ride Along 2. Starring: Kevin Hart, Ice Cube, Ken Jeong, Benjamin Bratt, Olivia Munn, Tika Sumpter.

D. Grumpy James (Cube), his soon to be brother- in- law, is still annoyed by his tactics. But before Ben is able to marry James’s sister, their boss assigns them to a case in Miami, where they will be working with the Miami P. D. New additions include Ken Jeong as a slippery hacker turned informant, Olivia Munn as a Miami detective, and (strangely briefly) Tyrese Gibson as Cube’s partner during a bust. Director Tim Story returns.

The passable first movie (which made an incredible $1. Hart and Cube were a good .

But with Cube’s “approval” won at the end of that, the plot here has pretty much no stakes whatsoever, other than what level of shenanigans they’ll get up to in Miami. Sci Fi Thriller Movies Rebel In The Rye (2017) there. The by- the- numbers screenplay is certainly lazier, trotting out ’9. Hart nothing clever to work with. There are a dozen or so amusing lines, but over ninety minutes that just isn’t good enough.

Ultimately your enjoyment will once again depend on how much you’re a Hart fan. Grandpa’s looking to score again after 1. Plaza) might help him succeed. Meanwhile his grandson is starting to question if getting married isn’t feeling like more of a prison sentence. The director previously co- wrote . The R- rated film starts like a deadweight, but when De Niro gets going he’s hilarious, if a couple of times humiliated.

Seeing him wack off to an adult movie might be the low point of his career but within minutes he’s exclaiming that his nightmare would be Queen Latifah taking a dump in his mouth from a hot air balloon, with a delivery that no other actor could have matched. He’s a machine of full- on bad taste and, rather than lament his fall from prestigious grace as critics have done, I fully admire his commitment to this role. Indeed the film is the most filthy and un- pc I’ve seen in a long time (only bested by . As pop culture moves so quickly, thanks to the ever increasing speed of communication, the references in the trailer – to ’5.

Shades’, to . Nonetheless, expect the usual assortment of high- pitch Marlon screams, fart gags and jokes about “white people”. Like Adam Sandler films, there’s a group who like Wayans comedies and a group that don’t. You already know which you’re in. Ehrenreich plays the onscreen cowboy making a wooden transition to a talking role and driving luvvie director Ralph Fiennes mad. Swinton plays a gossip columnist, Johansson is the star facing scandal after becoming pregnant from a fling, and Channing Tatum is a singing/dancing actor with an interesting sideline.

Roger Deakins, probably the greatest cinematographer alive, rejoins the Coen Brothers, having previously worked with them on the likes of . If you don’t have an interest in the golden age of Hollywood then this is likely to be a drag because the primary pleasure here is seeing those period visuals recreated and having fun with the politics and studio system of the era. Most of the stars on the poster are little more than glorified cameos (Jonah Hill has one scene, Scarlett Johansson has three, Channing Tatum has three, etc).

The story flow feels disjointed, like a series of vignettes tied together fairly awkwardly. It lacks forward drive, any real stakes, and it’s never hilarious, although some individual scenes (like Tatum’s dance number and Ehrenreich’s date at the cinema) are wonderfully done and moments of style run throughout. For cinephiles only.

By 1. 94. 4 Captain Mainwaring’s (Jones) men are suffering from low morale, until a glamorous journalist (Zeta- Jones) arrives to report on the platoon’s exploits. Meanwhile, MI5 have discovered a radio signal transmitted from Walmington- on- Sea towards Berlin, apparently the work of a spy, giving the Home Guard a chance to make a real difference in the war. The do- over comes from the writer and director of . There’s nothing fundamentally wrong with the idea of rebooting the series, the concept remains potentially funny and endearing – but this is a very lacklustre effort. The plotting and writing are weak, the slapstick’s embarrassingly lame and the direction well below par (the bull chase and final shootout are among the most poorly staged sequences of the year).

Catherine Zeta- Jones has a ridiculously large amount of screen time for her role, with scene after repetitive scene of the men individually trying to win her affection. Indeed for most of the running time she’s on screen more than Captain Mannering. This is at the expense of male bonding scenes and so we get little sense of the interpersonal relations between the squad.

Toby Jones tries hard as Mannering but in the end he’s a dramatic not a comic actor. A curiosity for long time fans but no pleasure for anyone. Miller, Morena Baccarin, Gina Carano. Director: Tim Miller. Out: 1. 2 February 2.

Wade Wilson (Reynolds), an unhinged former Special Forces operative turned neighbourhood- duties mercenary, finds the love of his twisted life, but then discovers cancer is about to end it. Approached by a shadowy man, he agrees to become part of a super- soldier program in return for a cure. The torturous rogue experiment scars him severely, but gives him incredible agility and accelerated healing powers. When its sadistic overseer Ajax (Skrein), who cannot feel pain, reveals that Wade is actually being turned into a super- slave, Wade breaks free, adopts the alter ego Deadpool, and sets out for revenge – amidst a sea of quips and 4th wall breaking commentary.

Soon he enlists the help of two X- Men: steel- skinned Colossus and energy conductor Negasonic Teenage Warhead. The movie’s at its best whenever he’s in costume, with the unique shifting eyes of the mask doing a great job of conveying the comic character.

The script comes from the writers of . The story itself is perhaps a little too straightforward, and much of the backstory is played as straight drama, but better that than a spoof. It does a good job of making someone near invulnerable in the comic seem vulnerable but could have carried over more of his split personality and the surreal, there’s a hint of those aspects toward the end. All in all it’s a chuckle- worthy R- rated escapade, that’s made an incredible amount of money at the box office.
