narniadis Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Star Trek Beyond would have to go sub 100m to really be a bomb of a franchise killer level... but then again I am not sure of the budget and it's probably going to barely gross 500m WW so yeah the box office receipts of the trek films have never been what Paramount has truly been invested in considering the cash cow it is in every other facet. I think Warcraft could end up being a Pacific Rim - barely crack 100m make enough overseas to not be an outright disaster but not enough overall to avoid being labeled the dreadful b-word. Frankly if we are talking expectations its Neighbors 2 - the UK/AUS openings already confirmed what a lot of us are thinking.... bombs away on that one (ala Ted 2 on a smaller scale) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
somebody85 Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Warcraft Ghostbusters Star Trek Beyond could go either way but I think it will still make money. Same with Angry Birds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
filmlover Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) It won't be a huge bomb financially but it still seems so weird that STX decided to give Free State of Jones a prime summer spot (and against Independence Day 2, no less). I might see the movie if time and money allow for it but it looks kind of boring tbh. Edited May 10, 2016 by filmlover Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krissykins Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Alice: Through The Looking Glass - Could drop more than 50% from the first film. Popstar: Never Stop Stopping Warcraft The Legend of Tarzan Ben-Hur Mechanic: Resurrection I don't know what War Dogs, Spectral, Free State of Jones, The Infiltrator, Nine Lives, Kubo and the Two Strings, Hands of Stone are. Of the 14 films going wide in August, I think only 5 will make over $20M total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmaPeel Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Is Ben-Hur even coming out? It seems like it's been pushed back three or four times now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boxofficerules Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 (edited) My guesses would be Warcraft Ben Hur Ghostbusters Alice Tarzan Now You See Me 2 Independance Day 2 Warcraft, Ghostbusters and Ben Hur feel like the ones I know will bomb, the rest, I think they will but wouldn't put money on it. edit, forgot about Nine Lives, what's the budget on that one, if it's anything over $30 million, I think it will bomb.

Bomb as in losing money. If budget is $200m + worldwide marketing $200m. Then doing $500m worldwide could be seen as a bomb. Money not recouped from theatrical run.

cookie Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 Tarzan and Ben-Hur look to be the prime candidates IMO. Warcraft at least has OS to save it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
