  • Live-action How to Train Your Dragon opens to $197M globally, including a $83M domestic debut that surpasses every previous entry in the franchise.

  • Disney’s Lilo & Stitch nears the billion-dollar mark, with over $858M earned just four weeks after release.

  • Pixar’s Elio faces a soft box office forecast, but Jim urges caution against writing it off before opening weekend.

  • Peter Sohn tapped to direct Incredibles 3, with a screenplay by Brad Bird and expectations riding high after Elemental's surprise turnaround.

  • Jim interviews Matt West, director of the 30th Anniversary Tour of Beauty and the Beast: The Broadway Musical, and shares the story of how the animated film came together after a theme park pre-show opened doors for new talent.
