  1. Same thing happened in Japan with early home release. Probably cost the movie at least $30 million theatrically, but it did go on to become the best selling Blu-ray there.
  2. This can't seriously be the map causing issues, right? Where even is the offending line on this map? That squiggle east of that fictional Asian landmass? That looks nothing like the real nine-dash line. It's not even 9 dashes and looks more like navigational route markers. You can see another similar line near what looks like Greenland. Makes me think there has to be another map in the movie that we are not aware of.
  3. That would be an incredible achievement. Only 4 animated films have ever crossed 5 million admissions. Suzume, Kung Fu Panda 2, and then the two Frozens with over 10 million admissions each.
  4. That's actually a solid hold for The Flash, keeping streak of >$1 million alive for one more day. Though it's always had a large boost from Discount Tuesday so the Wednesday drop is likely to be steep like usual.
  5. Even with TLM being a breakout, it grossed like $6 million in Philippines. And in Vietnam, TLM grossed like $0.5 million so doubt Barbie would have been that much higher. But you are right that anything can happen.
  6. I'm aware. I just don't think Barbie would have appealed to those markets even if it wasn't banned. American humor usually doesn't work in Asia.
  7. It’s unfortunate but the box office impact will be minimal. Probably would have grossed sub-$5 million combined if released normally.
  8. Pixar have made it work once with WALL-E, but I agree it’s a hurdle. Even animated sci-fi like Iron Giant or Atlantis proved a tough sell to GA.
  9. If it wants any hope of great legs there the Disney+ date needs to be pushed to like Christmas or next year, even if just for Japan. Audiences there have shown again and again they don't mind waiting a few months to watch for free ever since Disney+ debuted in the market.
  10. It's not so bad in the context of the movie though. The punch was a last ditch effort to try and save Indy from making a terrible mistake.
  11. That’s crazy high if it doesn’t include marketing costs, especially compared to the first Jurassic World.
  12. Elemental went up by over $800,000 with actuals. 2 (2) Elemental Walt Disney $12,128,492 -34% 3,650 -385 $3,323 $89,607,297 3
  13. This is as stupid as ATSV being banned in UAE. It's not even a real map, unlike that scene which got Abominable banned in Vietnam, Philippines, and Malaysia.
  14. Have to wait for Deadline's breakdown, but I suspect Flash will still end up losing more money. Production cost is much higher for Indy, but Flash had a much bigger marketing spend which cancels some if not most of that out. Barring a complete collapse, Indy should also comfortably outgross Flash both DOM and WW.
  15. They should just delay the Disney+ date for Japan only to account for its late theatrical release. It's pretty common for streaming platforms to have different accessibility to content depending on region.
  16. Have to wait for the inevitable Deadline article for the specifics, but I don't see it losing more money than Strange World after ancilliaries. It's probably grossing at least $300 million more WW which more than makes up for the additional $100 million in spending. Plus, the $295 million budget likely doesn't account for the 25% UK tax rebate.
  17. Big flop for sure, but it's probably losing around $100-150 million for Disney. Recently, Strange World would still be a bigger bomb since Disney lost $200 million on that one. And adjusted for inflation, pretty sure John Carter is the biggest money loser for the studio.
  18. Ne Zha also came very close. $95 million OW followed by $127 million second weekend.
