Barnack Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 50 minutes ago, TalismanRing said: I think it will do $800m or so but that is a $200m drop from the last one with an increase in China not really offsetting the Domestic decrease in terms of actual profit. So while they will make money on it they have to wonder if #6 will drop again and they won't make any profit and if they could make far more directing $400m or so (movie + marketing) elsewhere. It will lost 200+m at the BO, but if that rumored 230m net budget is true, that is a huge difference with the previous 410 million - tax rebate (I would imagine between 340-350 million net cost). Say it is a movie 100 million cheaper, it will still do less than the previous one, but not as much as the box office difference indicate. The fact that those movie cannot be made cheaper really (as long as they are giant on the water production with the best CGI on their era), could make them take a long thinking before greenligthing a sequel it is true, specially if the new character does not caught up among audience with their study and still have to rely on Depp. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fine but considering the diminishing returns and the fact that making these movies cheaper is very difficult to do, is it fine enough for a sequel? I'm not so sure but I hope it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we talk mostly about theatrical here but its got all kinds of revenue streams after it leaves theaters. Its going to be proditable no doubt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think a definitive decision on whether to continue this franchise with a sequel or not will really be made that quickly when the numbers are what they are. We will see though.

Due to exchange rate Japan could fall from 110 to 70+ for POTC5 but next one could stay steady. I can see 150 dom + 225 China + 75 Japan = 450 for POTC6 from 3 markets. 750-800 WW just like POTC5. Now as long as they keep the budget in check... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
