ClaudeManhattan Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 When the ancillary markets starts in a few months, Soderbergh will be very happy with the South, Midwest and the NASCAR Nation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HenryMeyers20 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Soderbergh tried to pull a heist of his own. He put a commercial wide release label on LL. The problem is LL is really an artsy director cut movie, not a commercial movie with studio editing and treatment. 3000 theaters is too much for this movie, it would have been better served with two thousand or less theater. Targeting the rural areas is never a good move. Los Angeles, CA population is 7000 per sq/ml Charlotte, NC populations is 2500 per sq/ml Los Angeles average drive miles to your nearest theater is 4 miles Charolette average drive mIles to your nearest theater is 17 miles.

You are literally the only one who gives a fuck about this movie's underperformance. Stop embarrassing yourself. This movie made more money by being in more theaters. Why reduce the TC?

In the near future theaters will only be showing big blockbusters and oscar bait films. Everything else will go to Netflix and Amazon. Then the rural areas will be reached more easily.

Well, he was responsible for the "Logan Lucky will beat THB on OW" (or something like that) thread that got shut down very quickly (it wasn't a club, it was just a statement he made), then going about calling out mods and making scandals about how IMDB was a better place because there were no rules. He got threadbanned for double accounts as well. In another words, he's just trying to create excuses as to why the movie's BO didn't match his ridiculous expectations (really, why did anyone think LL was going to beat THB?).

The conversation is about questioning Soderbergh's skills or lack of skills as a distributor. That's something that needs to be addressed.

ClaudeManhattan Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 (edited) I think it's safe to say Steven Soderbergh's marketing plan is a total failure. He proved that big distribution companies are right and his beliefs about distribution is wrong. He couldn't sell a movie with a great cast and a 92% tomato rating. He brags about the movie already makes profit, but it's a lot less than he was expecting. LL only opened at $7.6m in 3000 theaters, A good distribution company could have easily opened LL at $15m-$20m and Soderbergh would be getting the same amount or even more money than he's getting now.
