Hope it can keep inching its way up to 300m. Japan isn't until the end of March so we'll see where it's at by the time it opens there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A District 3 Engineer Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 It's just doing a few thousands every day, this is not getting more than 500k in that period of time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But isn't that in part because it lost 90% of its theaters for Chinese New Year's? Is it getting some of those theaters back? I was assuming it was expanding.

JennaJ Posted February 9, 2017 Share Posted February 9, 2017 I guess the big question is if they also give it back more showtimes. If not, the extension won't make much of a difference, but it did lose almost all of its screens due to CNY so maybe it's gonna get some back? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisTelclear Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Based on all of this it should finish at around $46M in China. Considering where it started out, and when it was released, it did well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no good rules of thumb to evaluate a movie break even point, because where the box office come from change it, the ratio production cost/total cost can change a lot, people can have first dollar gross type of contract, but the best I did come up with seem to be around for big movies is (1.3 * domestic box office + foreign box office) >= 2 * (net production budget + participation bonus before hitting the mark) smaller movie will need a much bigger ratio, because the production budget is much smaller relative to the releasing cost. Movies almost never do that, most movie have a theatrical release that cost more than the theatrical revenue, if you look at a studio annual report, they do 30-40% of their annual revenue from theatrical, most of the revenue come after. Think about a movie like Passenger, imagine a 400 million world box office, divided 70 million in china, 130 million in domestic, 200 million foreign. 130 * 0.53 + 200 * .4 + 70 * .25 = 166.4 million, more than enough to pay the 100 million world release, but the 66 million you are left with do not pay the production budget and the overhead (and the participation bonus would have started to kick in too) To not be a flop (i.e. not loose money) for a movie like Passenger the best reference is probably the movie Elyisum and looking at sony leaked document to see is break even point and expectation, it has a similar budget in a similar genre. Elyisum with a 125.62 net production budget planned, with a world release P&A of about 100 million had Break even point: 91.6 domestic / 128.3 international box office, 219.9 worldwide total Targeted/budgeted to achieve (9.6% ROI): 125 dbo/175 ibo, 300 million worldwide Wished Return break (15.5% ROI): 145 dbo / 203 ibo, 348 million worldwide The movie ended up generating 297.93 million in total revenue, doing 20.453 million in profit for Sony, on a 93 million dbo / 193 million ibo 286 million worldwide box office performance. Good post and welcome. I'll stick with the (Total Production cost/2) metric because of the inherent complexities (especially when you incorporate distribution deals and gross shares for the producers/actors involved) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lilmac Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 (edited) @Barnack 130 * 0.53 + 200 * .4 + 70 * .25 Where did you get this ratio from? Studio take home share from grosses, domestic / international (outside of China) / international (China)?

Studio take home share from grosses, domestic / international (outside of China) / international (China)? 53% is the most common I saw for big movies domestic (from the theatrical chain cost of movies in their financial statement to the sony leaks), in the past it (say before 2007) it was often 55 to 58% when studio got a larger share of the first weeks. 40% is the ratio used by deadline estimate and is close to what movie do according to the different leaks, some movies that are strongly in good market and get the best deal like the Harry Potter/Davinci Code type of franchise movie can make more, say 45%, some movies do less like 35%, 40% is a good rough estimate. For example, using the Sony leaked revenues projections for Hotel Transylvania, that is the share of the gross they used by main market: Australia: 40% Autria: 40% Belgium: 42% Brazil: 43% France: 38% (france finance their own production by taxing the box office of overseas movies) Germany: 43% Holland: 38% Italy: 40% Japan: 48% Korea: 47% Mexico: 38% Russia: 42% Spain: 43% UK: 32% For an world average of 40% It change a bit from studio to studio and type of movies I would think, like on the domestic market. China 25% return is really well known. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China 25% return is really well known. Interesting. Thank you. Studios only get 25% of every dollar earned in China (on average). That sucks. On a related note, do you want to help me write up a petition for imdb.com/Amazon to NOT monetize parts of BoxofficeMojo? There are no overt statements to suggest this will be the case but that BOM survey gave me a sinking feeling. Of course they could be planning to shed/eliminate it altogether.
