Reports indicate that $46 million of that is from the domestic box office.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">This is the largest opening for an original Pixar film since \u201cCoco,\u201d (not adjusting for inflation). With inflation, \u201cCoco\u201d still bests \u201cHoppers\u201d.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">While the film performed a bit better than global expectations, it still has a long way to go for profitability.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The budget for \u201cHoppers\u201d is estimated to be around $150 million, which means it needs to make between $300 -$375 million to break even. Normally, that might not be an issue, but time will be limited with \u201cSuper Mario Galaxy\u201d looming on the horizon.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cHoppers\u201d needs to either perform better next weekend or Disney needs to keep it in theaters for a long time and hope word of mouth brings enough people in to hit profitability, as they did with \u201cElemental.\u201d<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify\">What is Hoppers about?<\/h5>\n<blockquote style=\"text-align: justify\">\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cAnimal-lover Mabel seizes an opportunity to use a new technology to \u201chop\u201d her consciousness into a lifelike robotic beaver and communicate directly with animals. As she uncovers mysteries in the animal world beyond anything she could have imagined, Mabel must rally the entire animal kingdom to face a major imminent human-threat.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: justify\">Here is the trailer,<\/h5>\n<p> \u00a0 <\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><img data-document-id=\"cms\/api\/amp\/video\/AA1XLXbc\" data-reference=\"video\" style=\"display: block; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto\"\/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">\u201cHoppers\u201d was directed by Daniel Chong and produced by Nicole Paradis Grindle. Mark Mothersbaugh scored the film.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">I will give a parental warning that there is a scene where a parent is \u201csmooshed\u201d in front of their child. Some kids might get upset by that.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Rotten Tomatoes has audiences and critics in rare lockstep, with both groups giving it a 94%.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">I wouldn\u2019t rate it quite that high. I gave it a 6.5 -7 \/ 10.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">You can read my review HERE.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">What do you think?\u00a0 Will this film break even?
