John Rambo Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 5 minutes ago, HesAPooka said: Nice, I completely forgot about that! I've seen zero marketing for this movie where I am. From family I've talked to in Europe they've had zero marketing in Europe as well. All things considered it's doing very well. So true the marketing done by Universal in OS is not upto the mark! I guess they are expecting USA to outgross OS??? Considering Cruise and his star power they could have done more to push this to OS audiences! I wonder if a movie like Wolf of Wall Street which is kinda similar to AM in terms of Genre Biographical-Crime-Black Comedy! can gross close to 270m OS but this one will barely gross half of it!

In Netherlands too it dropped by -18% should cross The Mummy based on 3rd and 4th week holds. Poland and Portugal are performing way better than JR2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HesAPooka Posted September 17, 2017 Author Share Posted September 17, 2017 Apparently at the last minute it got pulled from the biggest theater chain in Mexico because of some dispute which really hurt it there. Also bigger drop in UK this weekend due to lots of competition. Opened ahead of JR2 in Italy but below in France, needs really good holds in France to match JR2. Movie really needs to break out somewhere to get to 100m, which probably wont happen. Quote Tom Cruise’s latest starring vehicle American Made grossed $12m in 53 territories for a total of $48.8m. The film opened in 10 territories over the weekend, including a number one opening in France and French-Switzerland. The film debuted in South Korea at number three on $1.9m, while France generated $1.8m in week one, coming in on par with American Hustle and The Equalizer. Italy produced $1.1m for fourth place, while Brazil produced $1.1m, which is higher than both Jack Reacher films, Edge Of Tomorrow and American Hustle. The action film debuted in Mexico at number two on $441,000. Doug Liman’s action comedy debuted in the Philippines on $373,000, which is bigger than Jack Reacher. Central America produced $247,000, while a number one debut in French-Switzerland generated $122,000, which is bigger than the openings for Argo, Jack Reacher and Edge Of Tomorrow. The film also debuted in Belgium and Peru on $189,000 and $155,000, respectively. There are 12 territories to open over the next three months. This week American Made opens in Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Venezuela. https://www.screendaily.com/box-office/war-for-the-planet-of-the-apes-earns-623m-in-china-debut/5122432.article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HesAPooka Posted September 18, 2017 Author Share Posted September 18, 2017 Did some math and unless it really breaks out somewhere it's running towards around 91m. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dark Alfred Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 (edited) It will clear 100m. Every single Cruise led vehicle did the past 25 years. Incredible streak that will continue.

John Rambo Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 Cant expect much from American Made in India as it is Clashing with a biggie down south (Major Market for Cruise) also considering its content it might do well in Metro cities (5-6 major cities). But it has one advantage. Its releasing during Holiday weekend Fri-Monday 4 Day OW in some parts of India so that must help AM to capitalize as much as it can.

John Rambo Posted September 25, 2017 Share Posted September 25, 2017 10 hours ago, HesAPooka said: Italy numbers are good. It has crossed the lifetime figs of JR2 and based on 3rd week hold it can cross Mummys gross as well. France had decent drop around 35%. Brazil ok drop again it has few more $$$ to cross JR 2 lifetime figs. Not sure if Colombia gross is good or not since it has grossed 25% of The Mummy OW gross. Say weekdays it might add 2-2.5m. It leads to 61M gross after this the major markets are Russia and Japan. Paraguay, Uruguay and TT are small markets they might pitch in with 500-600k. Not sure how this will fare in Russia since its an out n out american story. In Japan JR2 grossed 7.8M this can do 10m considering its WoM with leggy run. Without China im expecting 80-90M based on current trends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including P&P the expense shouldn't cross 100m mark! If NA breaks out with 100m (Best Scenario) then its a BE theatrically. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barnack Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 19 hours ago, John Marston said: wonder what the budget is Normally has a Louisiana production (even if they didn't spent 2m there, they still asked for a state tax credit on it) it should be public and I was finding it strange that I was not being able to find it, it is because it was registered under is previous code name Mena: http://www.imdb.com/news/ni60132973/ https://fastlane.louisianaeconomicdevelopment.com/Film/FilmSearchDetails.aspx?ProjNum=%2f%40eBPloxaWa5psJmkB6BdQ%3d%3d Production Title: Mena Production Type: feature film Estimated Total Budget: $66,569,420 Look like it was at least planned has a 66m gross budget, net could be a bit under 56/57m Jack Reacher 2 was around 96m gross in comparison: https://fastlane.louisianaeconomicdevelopment.com/Film/FilmSearchDetails.aspx?ProjNum=GqkbSZEd3QDTAlWLjuQ2Rw%3d%3d That one is 30m cheaper. 18 hours ago, John Rambo said: Including P&P the expense shouldn't cross 100m mark! Average studio world releasing cost tend to be around 70m, but that one had a bit of an un-regular release pattern and at least domestic does not look like it will be on the expensive side, still should be above 100m in total cost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes like I said, spent less than 2m in Louisiana, but because they still asked for tax credit for it, they still have to fill in their demand the movie total expenses. 40m on a 66m budget movie would be a massive rebate... probably significantly higher than that (50m would be closer). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HesAPooka Posted September 26, 2017 Author Share Posted September 26, 2017 Just now, Barnack said: Was just going by what the tax rebates are in the states. Between 25-40% which would give it a net of 40-50m. Probably land somewhere in the middle. So if the movie ends up with 130-150m ww it's made more than enough . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually they have a list of expense that are accepted and some that are not accepted often bottom the lines actual expense in the state will be, but not above the line (director/writer/story/producer/main cast) expense and often you need to sales those tax rebates to someone (or exchange then to the state 85 cent on the dollar). Movie rarely get those maximum percentage on the total amount. Edited September 26, 2017 by Barnack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Rambo Posted September 26, 2017 Share Posted September 26, 2017 If thats the case it has to recoup its budget thru decent performance in USA. Since studios tend to get around 50-55% of the gross which is not the same in many countries except Japan where the share is above 55%. American Made should gross around 80m OS and 50m USA for a decent gross. If this is the case then USA 50m*0.55=27.5 OS 80m*0.40= 32 This amounts to 59.5 significantly higher than its net production budget! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
