One thing I expect to hear more than anything is a little something regarding the Disney-Fox deal. Set to complete by Summer 2019, I'm willing to bet we hear something about its progress. This is partially why I don't think many movies on each studio's slate will happen, such as those untitled Fox/Marvel films and the Pixar movies in March 2020 and March 2022. See here for further thoughts.

Other than that, I have one hope. Remember the gigantic animation slate that Fox put out back in 2013? These were the dates:

March 10, 2017

June 16, 2017

July 21, 2017

November 3, 2017

December 20, 2017

March 23, 2018

June 29, 2018

July 20, 2018

November 2, 2018

December 21, 2018

Let's say that the Disney deal does indeed fail, and then Fox can do whatever they like buy themselves. I have put a proposed slate together.

(Also, I am making the assumption in this case that The Call of the Wild is not a Fox Animation movie)

I know, I know. It seems a little far-fetched, but don't rule anything out just yet.

Speaking of Fox and animated films, what is going on with Rio 3? You'd think it'd be announced or released already, considering how profitable 2 was. I mean, Hotel Transylvania 2 made roughly the same amount, and the threequel will be out this coming July, so...

What say you?
