The Secret Life of Pets - 2016

Have any of you missed this trailer? It is so funny and so rewatchable and hilarious. If the movie comes through, it will be a big hit.



I wonder what Universal Creative could do with this?

As someone both loving the Movie and Park industry; i'm keeping an eye on this, and the same is said about the park possibilitys for a attraction based on this. Its interesting, to say the least.

I'm fairly certain Burke has mentioned in the past that they already have a ride in development.

 

[AlexanderMBush]

Well if that's the case; it just matters on box office revenue for this IP. I'm just having hope that it does great and is a good film.

I'm not sure it does, but we'll see

No, really??? My word. :blank:

We're on the same wavelength, I'm guessing.

I've honestly watched this a hundred times over the last month...

So Illumination has released a new trailer for the film, and unlike the first which seemed to be a series of gags from mostly side characters, this one is more prominent with main characters and showing a bit of the plot.



With that said, I'm gonna' be lowering my expectations for this film. A important thing about voice acting/casting, you want a voice that can fit the character. When it comes to Snowball, Kevin Hart's voice doesn't. fit. whatsoever. An' with Snowball being the villian of the film, ouch.

 

[Teebin]

Hm. His voice didn't bother me. That cat playing with the bunny poop at the end is so funny! My cat would do that.

Love that scene. This is going to be really good.

Kevin Hart doesn't concern me, the poop jokes do.

This film looks very similar to Zootopia coming from Disney.



It looks like it will be another entry here:

The only thing they have in common is they both revolve around animals. Their plots couldn't be more different (based off what we know of Pets anyway)

I'm gonna' have to respectfully and severely disagree with that, since plot-wise, character-wise and even setting-wise they're not even close.

SLoP: Set in New York, with humans and regular animals. Plot is about a jack russel terrier who finds himself not being the favorite pet when his owner brings in another dog from the pound. They gotta' work out their differences while the rabbit Snowball is leading an' army of abandoned pets to take revenge on regular pets and their owners.

Zootopia: Set in a compleately different world which is split up into various sections. One's like a metropolis, one's like Vegas, countryside etc. No humans whatsoever as all the animals are anthropomorphic. Plot-wise it's about a rabbit trying to make it big in the city and it's police force, she has to solve a case of a missing otter and also work with a con artist fox who was one of the only witnesses to it. Oh yeah, there also seems to be a nasty outbreak which is causing the animals to go savage and attack one another.

These two films just arn't twin films, this is not like when Disney released The Wild and Dreamworks released Madagascar in the same year.

^ Wow! Great news!

 

[quinnmac000]

Also new this week, Universal/Illumination’s The Secret Life Of Pets barked its way into the UK/Ireland and Norway with an outstanding $15.2M start. In the UK, it scored the 4th biggest original animation opening weekend ever.

This will probably be Universal's only blockbuster film this year.

What a difference from last year. But they packed so many franchise heavy-hitters into 2016. Here's hoping Purge and Bourne are at least moderate hits.

Purge, Sing, Ouaji, and this will make money as it was so cheap compared to the rest of their fims but this will be the only 500+ WW that I see...Bourne hasn't been so hyped.
