i need a green lantern movie

"Green Lantern Corps" is in the production line.

 GLis probably my favorite DC character after Batsy, and still pissed off DC Studios screwed up so badly in the 2011 film I admit I applauded and laughed like crazy when Ryan Reynolds took a pot shot at it in "Deadpool 2".

So looks as if DC will make a good profit off of Shazam. though not on an Aquaman level.

DC was smart to keep the budget down on this one, if they had spent what is usually spent on CBMs they would be looking on making a minor profit at best.

They should get Paul King to do a Superman movie, since WB distributed Paddington 2 domestically, but considering he recently left Pinocchio I'd be surprised if he hopped on another non-Paddington IP so soon

If they spend a bigger budget they won't put it at this time of the year, between two Marvel movies. And they'd spend more on the marketing department. But I do agree they are smart to keep the budget down,

comparing shazam with fantastic four lmao

Ageist trolls really want this movie to fail, huh?

It's easier to drop more on sunday when the saturday hold was that good. The friday-to-sunday drop is 33% compared to Captain Marvel's 37% for instance. Fant4stic was 48%.

For WB to even make a $20M+ profit of Shazam's theatrical release, the movie will have to do $500M worldwide. Variety is saying the budget is $98M, Deadline says $100M. Let's say the movie grossed $200M DOM, $250M OS-China, and $50M China.

 

So WB's share looks like this:

Dom: $200M x 50% = $100M

OS-China: $250M x 45% = $112.5M

China: $50M x 25% = $12.5M

 

Total WB' share: $225M

 

Let's deduct the $100M production budget and say another $100M marketing and distribution budget.

 

So WB will be left with only $25M profit from the movie's theatrical showing.

 

And that is from a $500M worldwide gross. It's not even sure at this point if it gets there.

The year end profit that Deadline puts together is not theatrical only. It includes all sources including home video and satellite rights. Here’s the Aquaman one from Deadline: https://deadline.com/2019/03/aquaman-box-office-profit-2018-1202584701/

 

There’s a reason breakeven theatrically is on budget only and not including marketing because marketing is offset by the home video and satellite

Oh alright. Shazam might make good profits from the ancillaries since it seems like a streaming-friendly film.

When do you get the 100M marketing. 

Dont put numbers you don't know.

But the way Box Office is no the only source of revenue to this film.

1. Merchandise 

2. International TV rights 

3. Domestic TV rights 

4. VOD

and more much
