Krissykins Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 So Spain and Mexico are opening this coming weekend. Mexico could provide good numbers. 15 hours ago, GirafficPark said: $230M WW is terrible for a movie that cost nearer $240M with marketing. Sony are getting about $130M of that back, thats a horrible loss that merchandising isnt going make up for. In fact if sales are bad there may be penalties to pay to the licensee. These merch deals usually have performance related clauses in them. They are in partnership with GhostCorps. They're not going to have to pay anything to the license holders . Plus, Variety say merch is selling well. Then there's home market to cover the advertising costs. You might be forgetting partnerships, sponsors and product placement too, since you're looking into this films advertising costs so much.

Purple Minion Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Screendaily - Ghostbusters captured another $7.2m from 8,300 screens for $72.2m to date internationally. Paul Feig’s reboot opened in Mexico ($2.5m to chart second), Spain ($840k to chart first) and France ($1.2m, including previews), ahead of its release in Japan next weekend.

Belakor Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 LMAO, I think this is the first BB movie it has flopped in every major OS market. Tanked in Mexico and Flopped in France & Spain. I doubt Japan is going to save it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krissykins Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 It hasn't flopped in every major market, look at Australia and the U.K., it was number 1 in both and over $10m each. Those Spain and France numbers are dire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember, Fantastic Four made 111 million overseas. Yeah, that horrible FF reboot made 111 million overseas and it's basically confirmed that Ghostbusters won't be making 100 million overseas, unless it makes 40 million in Japan, which we both know it won't happen. That's a disaster. Its domestic numbers aren't the worst thing ever, but the numbers are disappointing regardless. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's like saying it has stopped earning money in all the other markets it has been released. It probably has more than $10m or so left in its existing markets so It still has a chance in breaking 100m. After Japan, it still has Korea which could potentially add another $5m. If it makes more than 10m in Japan then 100m is already all but assured. The movie already made $1m(estimate) in previews in Japan.

According to Corpse, it's decent considering it was shown in very limited screenings/showings. Not sure if it's enough to indicate anything for its performance in Japan.

From Screen Daily Ghostbusters captured $7.9m from its 4,700 screens for $84.2m overseas, propelled by a preview-boosted $4.3m opening in Japan from 694 screens. Mexico led the holdovers with $1.1m for $5m after two weeks in play, while it posted second weekends of $765k and $415k in France and Spain, respectively, for $2.8m and $2.2m. Paul Feig’s reboot opens in South Korea next weekend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GirafficPark Posted August 23, 2016 Share Posted August 23, 2016 Its a bomb. It grosses less than cost WW, merch isn't saving it, and there is no Sequel. Enough said really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to save that term for actual bombs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
