    LAIKA’s ‘Wildwood’ is tracking for a domestic opening weekend of just $6M–$10M, Box Office Pro reports. • Estimated budget of $100M • Would mark one of the lowest openings for an animated film in 2026

    I avoid writing lavish praise so that when I do make a big statement, it will mean actually something. WILDWOOD is the type of film I reserve my huge compliments for. I was literally - I mean, LITERALLY literally - slackjawed watching large portions of this movie. It’s a rare, genuine achievement.

    If people are so concerned about Forgotten Island and Wildwood bombing at the box office, why aren't they actually telling people to see it instead of thrashing on Disney 24/7? You'd think they'd do better at promoting a Dreamworks or Laika movie.

    I’m scared Wildwood might fail at the box office because Clayface comes out on the same day. We need to support Wildwood because the movie is PG-13 and watching it will show Hollywood that we want original and mature movies. If you have a heart, go see Wildwood on October 23 before Clayface.

    And Travis Knight used his nepo baby money to make stop-motion movies in America and he actually gets his hands dirty. Based on early reviews, Wildwood has a definite chance of winning an Oscar for a gorgeous fantasy movie. This is the kind of legacy that matters.
