Episode Details

Pixars new animated film, Hoppers, directed by Daniel Chong, is set to release this week, marking a significant test for the studio to see if original stories can still draw crowds after years of sequel dominance. The film, inspired by real documentaries on animal cams, has received glowing reviews and is projected to earn between $25 million to $40 million in its opening weekend. Pixars last original, Elio, failed at the box office, but a successful Hoppers run could signal a shift back to original stories in animation, with other highly anticipated films like The Super Mario Galaxy Movie and Toy Story five set to release this year.
