Weekend Thread 2/24-26 | Sat #s |Get Out: 12.8 (+18%) Lego: 9.4 (+120%) Wick: 4.2 (+70) (Pg 20)

Recommended Posts











Can I just say the fact that movies like Split and Get Out are more than doubling their OW than what I expected when I first saw their trailers truly makes me happy. BTW after seeing Get Out tonight with a crowd  I'm hoping it can have some nice legs. As for the movie itself I can definitely see it staying in my top 5 of the year.

That a bit of an exaggeration, like you are saying production budget are about only 33-35% of the studio total expense on a movie and it is much less than that for those small budget title, it is alwaysl expensive to give a movie a good wide release, they often spend 30 million on the domestic market alone for the release, really big push like split are not much cheaper than a blockbuster release wise, above 40 million on the domestic market. The advantage of those movie, is that if they do not play well you can cut your lost and only spend on those who test screen really well but when you do, you usually spend a lot, sometime more than on those giant blockbuster on the release (domestic at least). 

 

A movie like Prom night for example:

http://www.the-numbers.com/movie/Prom-Night-(2008)#tab=summary

 

Still didn't made much money, it made 79.5 million in revenue and costed just 10.2 million to do but.

Domestic P&A: 30.8 million

International P&A: 8.72 million

Home Ent release cost: 8 million

Intl Ent release cost: 2.7 million

Residual 4.5 million

Talent Participation bonus: 3.3 million

Co-financier share: 10 million

Overhead: 0.5 million

 

No profit left.

 

That why smaller the budget, usually higher the box office / production budget ratio need to be for it to be a success.

 

 

 

These numbers are way off. 

 

Where is the US home entertainment revenue? International home ent? Worldwide rentals? (at that time), US cable tv? US network tv? international TV? 

 

Plus you've deducted a co-financier share, but haven't taken them into account on the budget or global P&A spend?
