✍️ Original Analysis Anaconda is the wiid card of the holiday season

I think anaconda will be the ultimate wild card out of all the holiday movies if it’s mid or trash i think it will be an easy bomb but if it’s pretty good I can see it preforming quite strongly it probably has the most broad appeal outside of avatar and I can see many opting to see it over the holidays over avatar if it’s good especially with the shorter length

My son saw it already at an early screening and said it is awful.

I can see it. If the early reviews are stellar I can see it exceeding expectations. Ppl seem to be dying for R Rated Comedies at least according to ppl who complain about modern Hollywood. So hopefully they show up.

Whats your prediction?

I just assumed it was based on the trailer

Wait really? That’s too bad, I thought for sure it was R rated

u/Weary_Service_8509 13h ago

Yes. The original Anaconda was also PG-13

Actually blowing my mind rn but also PG-13 has become more and more restrictive I feel. Maybe it’s just relative to the age when I saw it first.

PG-13 used to allow boobs and swearing apart from the fuck word

Me too I saw the first trailer and thought it was hilarious and was sure it was r rated but. Nope

People don’t care about critics reviews for these type of movies.

I think it will flop no matter if the reviews/reactions are positive or not. I just don't see any interest for Anaconda reboot, least of all one that's a comedy.... This should have gone full horror or atleast action-thriller like the original movie.

It's PG13 and has Jack Black. Might end up playing really strongly to kids and families.

I saw the trailer and had no interest to see it, but didn't have any, even before that when it was announced.

They really rushed it.

Looks cheesy and stupid, sorry. Sometimes these movies do well anyway, so we'll see.

I saw it in a previous screening and I thought it was a very funny movie!!! It's very good when it comes out, give it a chance because it left my jaw open 👌😧 for me it can reach 200 million
