Hatebox Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I haven't followed box office for the past few weeks, but it's interesting to see that J Edgar's take is in line with it's critical reception. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I haven't followed box office for the past few weeks, but it's interesting to see that J Edgar's take is in line with it's critical reception.J Edgar`s budget is $35 mio. It`s breaking even not counting bits and pieces it`ll make form abroad. For such hard-sell material and critical bust, it`s actually doing OK.

tracygee Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) J Edgar`s budget is $35 mio. It`s breaking even not counting bits and pieces it`ll make form abroad.How in the world is it breaking even already? It'll need to pull a good additional $40-60m to break even on the theatrical run.If foreign is strong, it'll do okay, but if not, it could be in trouble.
