Oh me...already falling half a million below Joker
...on it's FIRST Monday and the Joker's THIRD Monday.
Joker budget=55 million
Maleficent 2 budget = 185 million
Don’t worry about Disney ,they make a hell of a lot more profit than WB with there movie releases overall, and did you know WB have to split most of the profit with 2 other companies? Not that profitable after all for WB
shareHaha..a billion dollar movie with a 55 million budget is "not that profitable", huh?
shareYou need to read my post again, I never said it wasn’t profitable, just not as profitable as you think for WB
shareNo...your exact words were "not that profitable after all for WB".
Even sharing it with two other partners does not take away the fact that it is VERY profitable for them. They only spent like 20 million on the production cost.
this will make similar profits to marvels latest releases such as end game, infinity war , black panther, captain marvel and so on, so hearing you get a hard on for joker as if it’s some rare thing is bizarre as Disney have been releasing highly profitable movies for some time now
shareThere is no other studio consistently releasing 100 million-losing flops than Disney during the past several years. Marvel has been propping them up. Now that it is RDJ-free it will no longer be able to cover all their other flops in the future.
shareDont assume queen , this is how you end up looking like a fool , the phase 4 slate is very intreasting, eternals, gotg3, dr strange etc etc and lets not forget xmen and fantastic 4
shareWe'll see...I hope you are right as I am excited for their upcoming slate.
It looks like DC Films will be the commercially dominant studio, though, what with Wonder Woman 84, Suicide Squad with James Gunn, new Batman trilogy from Matt Reeves, Aquaman 2 and whatever they decide to do with the continuation of this explosive new Joker success.
You mean you wish and hope WB will be the commercially studio, theres zero chance of that happening , Marvel will probably always dominate DC as it has done for 10 years , and Disney will always dominate WB , sorry if that upsets you.
shareOk...which is it?
"theres zero chance of that happening"
Or...
"Marvel will probably always dominate DC"
Is it "zero chance" or "probably"?
And finally the BIGGEST HOWLER...
"Disney will always dominate WB"
Anyone with even the simplest understanding of the movie business knows that there is no "always" for any studio and you're about to be hit with that stark reality in just a few months.
Is you're first language english ? Can you read ok ? Let me recap, Marvel year on year will dominate DC unless that is they dont release movies hence the probable , and are you telling me WB are going to have a bigger market share than disney in a few months , whahahaha oh queen , lots to learn you have , stupid you are , not good at box office are u
shareDid you know there has never been a studio that released 4 films in one year that lost 100 million apiece like Disney did last year?
Now...THIS year is supposed to be THE year for Disney and it is...because they are shooting their whole wad this year with their most valuable IPs. Even THEN they've had two massive money-losing bombs with Dumbo and Maleficent. Once again, losing 100 million apiece.
From here on out, it's going to be rough going for Disney. Lots of jagged rocks ahead in 2020 and beyond.
Im sorry queenfan your numbers are wrong this movie will make a profit.
The Movie has made $157,310,824 under a week.
About half of which goes to the studio $78,655,412. This covers the marketing of $75, 075, 684 spent by the studio.
Now over the next 8 to 10 weeks the movie will need to make $370,000,000 which half would go to the studio in order to break even. This is very likely to occur and as long as the studio makes some profit the movie would not be considered a flop. If the movie makes 15% of the total production and marketing as profit it meets studio expectations and you will see a third movie in the works.
Short reply if the box office hits 550,000,000 it is a success.
It's not getting anywhere near 550 million. LOL. It will be incredibly lucky to hit your first number of 370 million(which, btw, is far from breakeven).
shareI know you do not understand math or predictions but numbers do not lie if they make another 370 mil they will break even.
As far as predictions they can be subjective but you have to go by industry norms to make a good one currently it is looking like they movie will top out at around 550 which makes it profitable.
I misunderstood. I thought you were saying 370 million total gross would be breakeven. Sure...another 370 million on top of the 155 million it's already made would be breakeven BUT it's not going to come close to making that much more.
We can revisit this in a few weeks since I don't understand "math and predictions".
Well if definitely wasn't the year of Warner Bros they lost more money than they made.

Avengers Endgame Profit $904,300,000 Lost $0
total Profit $2,259,975,000 Lost $37,550,000
that means Disney has made after you subtract Dumbos loss $2,222,425,000 profit
please stop making things up while people may like or dislike certain films or studios numbers do not lie. Studios are a business they are in to make money and even if you dont like it Disney makes more than any other studio even if they release a poor or under performing movie from time to time.
You wish , remember when you said abominale was hot hot hot haha
shareLOL...I'd much rather be in Universal's shoes with it's small 25/75% co-production with Pearl Studios than Disney with it's 100% financing of Maleficent 2!
shareUniversal studios , 17 movies released in 2019 with a total gross of, 1.17 billion , shit , Disney made more profit with one movie , end game than universals entire slate combined, but you go ahead and be the small guy that spends less and gets a lot less back , duuuuuuur
shareMost of which are micro-budgeted, dingbat. They surely aren't the studio that has released 6 films in the last 18 months that have lost 100 million apiece. Most of Disney's best IP's have now been exploited or destroyed and yet they still have a strategy of spending 200 million per film for the foreseeable future on very questionable projects...and Black Widow and The Eternals will not come anywhere NEAR picking up the slack for all the losses like the last Phase of the MCU did.
shareAgain you dont know the future , you assume far too much , what IPs have been destroyed? Small budget , small profit queen , fact remains disney eclipses universal on a grand scale , you dingbat , a cept thus as its fact
share"Again you dont know the future , you assume far too much"
Ummmm...you just posted elsewhere in this thread that "Disney will ALWAYS dominate WB" and that "Marvel will ALWAYS dominate DC"!!!!
I mean...you just posted that!
LOL
You're such a waste of time.
Man you are wound up these days.
shareI am a little bit, aren't I?
But this furiousstyles just keeps coming at me with such stupidity. It's not like I'm the one seeking HIM out!
Some futures you can predict and i can guarantee that disney will always dominate WB, i know that pains you , but id love to be proven wrong.
share" Some futures you can predict and i can guarantee that disney will always dominate WB?"
Wow...just wow.
I know , you gonna cry ?
shareHardly...the old adage of "You argue with a fool long enough and you will become a fool." certainly applies here.
It's best I just walk away from this conversation and let your assertions speak for themselves.
LOL
Lol, I win you lose as always , you se queen I come at you with facts , you counter argue with deluded ramblings because you shill WB and Universal, this is why I’ll always win and you will be mocked like u have done for the last 10 years , it’s amusing to see
sharecall it penance for all the trolling you put on Bill.
But I get it, one of your fanboy vehicles is having a great run at the BO and you're sort of feeling yourself. But don't start to whine about the heat.
Of you knew our history it has always been billbrown who has "trolled" my posts and I finally started to respond and with billbrown...trust me...there is a LOT of material to use.
