In addition to a slew of loving reviews and awards nods, Big Hero 6 turned a decent profit at the box office and was the highest grossing animated movie of 2014, although it should be noted that no Pixar films were released during the year.
Calculating in all expenses, Deadline Hollywood estimated that the film made a profit of $187.34 million. Worldwide, it is the highest-grossing animated film of 2014, and one of the highest-grossing animated films of all time.
Not only because Big Hero 6 was suffering script issues, but it is also because Laroque would instead work on an idea that would later become Quest. During production of Quest for 2013 release, Laroque expressed interest of reviving Big Hero 6, which did not last very long, however.
In a refreshing turn, "Big Hero 6" has zero romantic plotlines. Instead, the focus is on the relationship between siblings, and how people cope with grief and loss. Young Hiro -- already a longtime orphan -- is left adrift after the loss of his idolized older brother Tadashi early in the film.
Audience Reviews for Big Hero 6 The Series: Season 1
Big Hero 6 the Series is better than the movie. It has a better villain, a better story arc, and its funnier! There are some episodes that are duds, but some of them are incredible. This is mean for ages 7-15 but all ages can enjoy.
Baymax stole the show! First time watching BIG HERO 6 movie reaction
Why did Big Hero 6 not get a sequel?
After completing his film Strange World, co-director Don Hall said, "There's been no discussions" regarding another Big Hero 6 movie, understandable as other projects have kept him busy. But a lack of discussion doesn't mean it could never happen, especially if the characters remain popular.
As voiced by Adsit, Baymax is warmly but mechanically even-keeled in everything, but it's the physical comedy that comes from how Baymax moves and reacts to things that makes the character so instantly endearing.
While he was not involved in the creation of Marvel's Big Hero 6, Lee co-created X the Unknowable, who became one of Big Hero 6's enemies in the comics.
Big Hero 6 does have a happy ending, but like every other Disney film, there is always a moment where things go pear-shaped and emotional. When Baymax and Hiro enter the portal to find Callaghan's daughter, they're successful until Baymax realizes he doesn't have enough power to take all of them back.
The series is a spinoff of the animated feature film Big Hero 6 (2014), and the second television series set in the film's continuity following Big Hero 6: The Series (2017–2021). The series is the first television series produced by Walt Disney Animation Studios. Baymax!
Unfortunately, this might also be the reason the film seems to have slipped out of the mainstream consciousness in recent years. Big Hero 6 doesn't neatly fit into a single category; too cartoonish and kid-friendly for most of the superhero crowd and too intense and serious for the usual Disney contingent.
“Big Hero 6” — executive-produced by Pixar co-founder John Lasseter — has grossed $111.7-million domestically (already cracking the year's top-20) and $148-million worldwide, as it nears its $165-million production budget.
The 6-foot, 2-inch tall Baymax towers over the 5-foot-tall boy-genius Hiro in the “Big Hero 6” movies and television shows. The Hiro character that appears in Disney theme parks is 5-foot-3 to 5-foot-7, according to the Disney Auditions website.
Despite the critical success while voicing his philosophy in Amazing Fantasy, Stan Lee's favorite character wasn't Spider-Man. It wasn't even a character he created himself. Stan Lee's favorite character was actually Jack Kirby's Silver Surfer.
The prolific Marvel Comics creator doesn't appear as himself but rather voices the dad of Fred, one of Hiro's friends. Lee's likeness can be seen before the scene in a family portrait, but he lent his voice to the film as well.
Hiro Hamada is a 14-year-old prodigy who tries to foil a dangerous conspiracy with the help of his late brother's robot creation, the lovable, inflatable Baymax.
Disney's "Baymax!" series is facing conservative backlash for its depiction of periods and LGBTQ characters. Yet another Disney production has drawn the ire of conservative Americans for its depiction of personal hygiene and use of LGBTQ characters.
Baymax objects, stating that it is against his programming to harm a human being. Without second thought, Hiro removes Baymax's healthcare and leaving the fighting chip at full operation, turning Baymax into a merciless killing machine.
