Let's make it offical. THIS FLOPPED. GO WOKE GO BROKE.


Due on streaming at the end of this month. So its theatrical run is basically done. Let's look at the total:

$543,441,325

Let's break these numbers down.

$290,522,732 domestic
$253,577,409 international

Domestic - the chains get 50%, so let's reduce domestic take to: $145,261,366
International - the chains get 60%, so let's reduce international take to:$101,430,963.6

Total: $246, 692,329
Budget: 250,000,00
Total: -3,307,670

Right now you're thinking 'But it can make up 3 million in the last few weeks. This broke even!

Wrong. We need to factor marketing into this.

$-3,307,670
-$140,000,000 (reported budget)
Total loss: $143,307,670

So I guess race swapping Ariel to virtual signal cost them $143 million! It's expensive to virtual signal!

So calling your audience bigots and racist doesnt make them want to see it? weird!!

Now even more than official (Disney shills) outlets have reported that the budget (more than confirmed) rose to 300 Millions. Imagine if it was already a flop with the budget at 250M, now that it is confirmed at 300M (all without marketing), wow. Way to loose money Disney.

Told ya it would. So you can now use these numbers to tell everyone that bragged about its "success" to go stuff it.
