Alice Through the Looking Glass

- Alice in Wonderland : 100M$ DVD from 83M$ (nearly impossible)

- Kung Fu Panda : 150M$ DVD from 145M$ (unlikely)

 

Star Wars - Rogue One

- Star Wars - The Force Awakens : Likely to have an impact, but hard to judge what impact the spin off will generate vs first run of TFA on HV. 

TFA "guaranteed" to reach 50M$ Blu Ray and 100M$ combined in 2016. 

 

Possible 2017 Milestones

Guardians of the Galaxy : 50M$ DVD

Pirates of the Caribbean - On Stranger Tides : 100M$ combined

Cars 2 : 50M$ Blu Ray

Transformers : 300M$ DVD

Despicable Me : 300M$ combined and 200M$ DVD (might be 2016)

Despicable Me 2 : 250M$ combined (might be 2016)

Minions : 150M$ combined

The Amazing Spider Man 2 : 50M$ combined

Rise of the Planet of the Apes : 50M$ DVD

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes : 50M$ combined

Pitch Perfect : 100M$ DVD

The Croods : 50M$ DVD

 

Here's another look back at the sequels impact on previous titles and close milestones. 

 

Last time I reviewed this was on July 10th and we had reporting up to May 1st, while today we have reporting up to Nov 6th.  At that time, only X-Men DOFP had reached a milestone (50M$ Blu Ray). 

 

From the "guaranteed" category:

Avengers : AoU (50M$ Blu Ray). It began the year at 46M$ and is now less than 300K$ away from reaching this milestone.  With Thanksgiving and Christmas not yet reported, it should reach it before year's end.

Star Trek 09 (200M$ combined).  It was at 197M$ in January and is now less than 50K$ from 199M$.  With Star Trek Beyond being released on HV the Nov 6th week, this could give ST09 enough of a boost to reach the milestone before year's end, but it's more likely to reach it in 2017.

 

From the "likely" category:

Captain America :The First Avengers - 50M$ DVD.  It started the year above 46,5M$ and hasn't even reached 47M$.  The impact was insignificant.

X-Men The Last stand - 150M$ combined.  It started the year above 145,5M$ and hasn't reached 146M$.  Another insignificant impact... 

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - 100M$ combined. It started at 95M$ and now stands at 98,7M$.  It received a significant boost, but not enough to reach the milestone in 2016.  With another sequel unlikely, it will eventually crawl to 100M$ combined.

Kung Fu Panda - 150M$ combined.  It started the year at 147M$ and is currently at 148M$.  I doubt this will reach 150M$ anytime soon, maybe when the next entry gets released.

 

Possible 2017 milestones that could still be reached in 2016

Guardians of the Galaxy - 50M$ DVD.  Currently at 49M$.

Despicable Me - 200M$ DVD.  Currently at 199M$ with around 500K$ to reach it.

 

While I don't believe any other milestones can be reached, Thanksgiving often brings us surprises.  I will list the 2017 sequels and possible milestones later today.

Star Wars : The Last Jedi

- Star Wars : The Force Awakens (150M$ Blu Ray and 200M$ combined) - currently 133M$ Blu Ray & 163M$ combined (likely for Blu Ray - possible for combined as the boost will mostly be received in January & April 2018)

- Rogue One : A Star Wars story (50M$ Blu Ray and 100M$ combined) - even though the movie is not out on HV yet, I predict it will reach both milestones with or without the "sequel" boost

 

Pitch Perfect 3

- Pitch Perfect (100M$ DVD) - currently 89M$ (unlikely as it received only a 6M$ boost from the last entry)

- Pitch Perfect 2 (50M$ combined) - currently 40M$ (unlikely)

So Finding Dory opened to about the same level as Zootopia on Blu Ray (25M$ vs 24M$ for Zoo) although it sold about 25% more units.  This should guarantee 100M$ combined for FD, but days of top animation movies reaching 200M$ with ease are long gone.  

 

SW : TFA also just passed The Avengers in units sold on Blu Ray for rank 4 all time.

I'm just talking strictly North American home video (DV/BR) sales.  The international sales must be enormous in a lot of places as well.

 

If you are talking about the-numbers figure ?

 

They are not North American, only united state, at least when you go there:

http://www.the-numbers.com/alltime-bluray-sales-chart

 

They say: All-Time Best-Selling Blu-ray Titles in the United States

 

And they are only estimate, Amazon/Wal-Mart and many other big vendor to do disclose the sales, as they say:

Precise information on Blu-ray sales is not generally available. Our Blu-ray sales figures are estimates based on studio figures, publicly available data, and private research on retail sales carried out by Nash Information Services. The figures include estimated sales at Wal-Mart and other retailers that do not publicly release sales information.

 

 

There is a good enough correlation between home entertainment revenue from the Sony leaked accounting and the-numbers figures to make them useful (some type of movie are more rentals than movie people buy, like Sandler/Will Farrell type of comedy), but as dvd/bluray sales become less and less relevant so does that metric.

 

But we cannot use those numbers to talk about record or reaching precise landmark, they are only gross estimate, and for just one country anyway.

Im sure its common with smaller / low key movies but are there many examples of blockbuster movies with big budgets that made more on home video than in theaters?

 

I would imagine many big movie in the dvd bubbles era did, theatrical was less than 30% of the studio revenues back then, and went up close to 35-40% over time by now.

 

If you look at the sony leaked accounting, they made 29.49 billion in revenue from the movie release between 2006 and 2014.

 

The breakdown of the revenue source by segment went like this:

 

Domestic Theatrical                            5,359,831        18%
Intl theatrical                                     4,896,173         17%
DOMESTIC HOME ENT REVENUE         7,151,339        24%
DOMESTIC HOME ENT PPV REVENUE     591,133         2%
INTL HOME ENT REVENUE                 3,167,917          11%
INTL HOME ENT PPV REVENUE             173,369           1%
DOMESTIC TV PPV REVENUE                263,639           1%
DOMESTIC PAY TV REVENUE             1,656,035           6%
DOMESTIC FREE TV REVENUE           1,088,838           4%
INTERNATIONAL TELEVISION           4,659,861          16%
AIRLINES AND MUSIC                         217,513             1%
CONSUMER PRODUCTS REVENUE        270,395           1%

 

So in total

Theatrical revenue: 10.25 billion

Home entertainment: 11.08 billion

TV: 6.315 billion

 

You can look at this image to see the relative importance of theatrical relative to the global feature film revenue in that era:

total-film-revenues-20111.png

 

Some of example of movie that did well at the box office and did more on Home entertainment:

 

Captain Phillips: 218 million ww box office, 108 million in theatrical revenue, 110.97 million from home entertainment

 

Pursuit of happyness: 307 million ww box office, 135 million from theater, 160.5 million from home entertainment.

 

It is common for comedy too, like Grown ups, Click (Adam Sandler movies in general) to do so.

 

When you look at how big domestic home revenue were in that period (almost 50% bigger than domestic box office) and how it is heavily correlated with the box office performance, it does show why domestic box office is more important than International, it is not just because you get 53% vs 35 to 47% of the revenue going to you, but because you have usually a much better part of the toy/home video/etc... domestic market than oversea.
 

If you consider (TV+home video) vs Theater, almost all movie ever made in the home video era made more from those than from theater.

I'm curious to see how the streaming rights break down for individual movies.

 

Those I think are kept pretty much secret, the only data I know is the one that leaked with Sony, so it is not up to date, but in 2013/2014, it seem like it went down like this.

 

For the Netflix US, the big home video movie were getting 15.443 million for a 42 month streaming deal on netflix (say 21 jump street, amazing spider-man, Men in black 3)

 

Moneyball, jack and jill, got 14.18 million

 

Hope Spring, underworld awakening, total recall, around 10-11 million

 

Smaller movie, got way less like Take Shelter (584k), The Guard (1.761 million), that is still good money for their budget, once you consider that it is only the US market. Some very small movie can go below 50k.

You can take a look to studio annual report, most break it down every year in theatrical/home entertainment/TV.

 

For example 2015, Warner Brothers for theatrical product:

Film rentals : 1.578 billion

Home video: 1.717 billion

Television licensing :  1.579 billion

Consumer products and others: .269 billion

Total: 5.143 billion

 

So in %

Theatrical: 30.6%

Home video: 33.3%

TV: 30.7%

 

The issue, is that for HV, TV, you have all the movie ever made in the past owned by WB that are considered so theatrical look a bit smaller than what they are for new release , only Liongates that I know separate they revenues by slates.

 

If you look at this for example:

https://www.lionsgate.com/uploads/assets/2016 Annual Report.pdf

 

You can see how much the movie release in 2015 made on physical media and digital media and TV in 2016 (and so on for 2014 movie, 2013, etc...) and in theatrical sales, making it easy to calculate gross ratio and give an idea how digital media are gaining ground, in 2016 the 2015 movies made about the same in digital sales than in physical for the first time.

Thanksgiving week Blu Ray numbers are in.  Finding Dory had a better drop than I expected and should easily pass Zootopia in both Blu Ray and Combined sales.  Speaking of Zootopia, it now trails The Lego Movie at the same point in its run by roughly 2M$ as it received a Thanksgiving boost around half of what Lego had.  It should settle between 100-110M$ after Christmas boost.  Both BvS and CA:CW reached 50M$ on Blu Ray.

Netflix probably has a lot to do with Zootopia's lacking video sales.

Using those liongates reports (the only studio that I know of that goes into some detail when revenues reportings their movie, I guess it is one of the very few if not only public studio, others being private or sub entity of big corporations), it can give us a rough idea of the progression.

 

Looking at the first 3 year,s of revenues for movie release, we can see how for example the ratio physical/electronic media revenues changed on the domestic market for that studio and the Home Entertainment / Theatrical ratio going down significantly.

 

For the movies released in

2011

Theatrical revenue    : 205.9 million

Home Entertainment: 323.4 million

          physical: 246.7 million

          digital   :  76.7  million

TV: 109.9 million

 

2012

Theatrical revenue    : 208.9 million

Home Entertainment: 339.1 million

          physical: 256.9 million

          digital   :  82.2  million

TV: 67.6 million

 

2013

Theatrical revenue    : 535.5 million

Home Entertainment: 505  million

          physical:  364.3 million

          digital   :  140.7million

TV: 154.8 million

 

2014

Theatrical revenue    : 431.5 million

Home Entertainment: 477.5 million

          physical:  333.4 million

          digital   :  145.2 million

TV: 138.1 million

 

2015 (only the first 2 year's instead of 3)

Theatrical revenue    : 354    million

Home Entertainment: 299.3 million

          physical:  196.1 million

          digital   :  103.2 million

TV: 74.5 million

 

It went from 23% of HE for 2011 release to 34.4% for 2015 release

A 5 week BUMP where we only got 2 weeks worth of update.  In those 2 weeks, we got Pete's Dragon, The BFG, Jason Bourne and Secret Life of Pets and only one release is worth analyzing (SLOP). 

 

Secret Life of Pets sold for 42M$ of DVD and Blu Rays in its first week which was better than most of the last 5 major animated releases (FD - 39M, Zoo - 41M, IO - 37M, Minions - 51M, BH6 - 48M).  SLOP should settle between 100M$ and 115M$ when all is said and done (just like comparable recent animated movies). 

 

The last major movie of 2016 to have been released on HV in 2016 is Suicide Squad and we should have data for that movie shortly. 

 

Here's the current rankings of 2016 comic book movies

1 - Deadpool     - 88M$

2- BvS              - 72M$

3 - CA : CW      - 70M$

4 - X-Men Apoc : 28M$

Speaking of Suicide Squad, we just got numbers from its first week on Blu Ray.  With 31M$ sales in its first week on Blu Ray, SS is off to a great start.  This is the third best week for a 2016 CBM behind Captain America : Civil War (39M) and Deadpool (33M), but above Batman v Superman (29M).  This guarantee that SS will reach 50M$ in Blu Ray and unless it completely drops off from its first week like CW did, then reaching 60M should also happen within 12 months. I believe it will end up just below Deadpool in combined sales. 

 

In other news,  SW:TFA got its first Rogue One boost and is now less than 600K units from passing Despicable Me 2 on Blu Ray something that will either be achieved before summer or it will have to wait for the Episode VIII boost.  It's also 21M$ away from claiming rank 2 over Frozen, which I don't see happening until Episode VIII gets released.  TFA now stands at 167M$ 38 weeks into its HV run,  just shy of my 175M$ 52 week prediction (Bragging rights!). 

 

Finding Dory is one week away from reaching 50M$ on Blu Ray, the first animated movie since Minions (currently at 63M$) reached that mark.  Secret Life of Pets (39M$) and Zootopia (49M$) should also reach this milestone sometime in 2017.  In fact, Zootopia should also reach 50M$ DVD and 100M$ combined milestones in the first half of 2017. 

 

The next two weeks of sales should be the last interesting data until we get to the fall and early winter releases in about 2 months although only Rogue One is worth analyzing as all the other releases are mid level blockbusters (Dr. Strange,  Fantastic Beast, Moana, Sing and Troll to an extent).

The Numbers gave SS's BR opening release week an avg of $30.  BV's was calculated at $25 and CW & DP at just $19.99. 

 

That's just ridiculous accounting and doesn't match what the films were actually priced at in their different formats/packages.

Anyone who was hoping that CA-Civil War would become the 6th movie to reach 100M$ on Blu Ray got their hopes slashed with that first week report.  It should be enough to make it into the top 10 Blu Ray and reach 80-85M$ in its first year.  It should also beat GotG for 4th place in the MCU for combined sales and 2nd place on Blu Ray behind the first Avengers.

 

The next movie to reach 100M$ on Blu Ray should be either Finding Dory or SW Rogue One depending on how the audience likes the movie.  I don't think any movies in the 80M-90M range (JW, ST09, TDKR) at the moment could get a sequel  bump before a new movie reaches it. 

 

Thanksgiving 2016 could also change that...

 

Looks like I was way off on this one.  CA:CW dropped off too hard in its 2nd and 3rd week to hope to get in the top 10.  It will also most likely end up in 6th place in combined sales in the MCU behind Avengers (234M), IM1 (196M), IM2 (178M), GotG (128M and CA:TFA (109M).  It will placed better on the Blu Ray ranks though only falling behind Avengers (120M) and GotG (79M) and beating CA:TFA (62M) for 3rd place. 

 

As for the next movie to reach 100M$ on Blu Ray, I was wrong on considering Finding Dory and had completely forgot about the 1991 Beauty And the Beast that currently stands at 96M$ and has not even received any direct boost from the 2017 live action Beauty and the Beast.  I also believe that if Rogue One doesn't reach 100M$ by mid summer, the 2017 Beauty and the Beast will beat it to 100M$ on Blu Ray.

Yeah I don't know how they get those figures.
