Just for the MPAA studio There share of the global box office trend, if we compare them in the world domestic vs intl market size trend it could give an idea. IF was 50/50 in 2003 and the world box office was of 20.3b with 9.24b domestic, so 45.5/54.5% split in world box office, 50/50 for the MPAA studios. By gross assumption the MPAA is making almost 100% of the domestic, they would have had a 91% world market share. In 2016 was around 38.6b global with a 11.38 domestic, a 30/70 for the split in world box office vs 36/64 for the MPAA studios box office. Using the same gross assumptions, 82% of the world market share. Their world share slipped a little bit with the big China local industry, would have too think to make a better ratio, but we could say they only have around 90% of the world market share they had in 2003.

Many people at least here in the UK boycott Murdoch so refuse to buy their newspapers or TV. They are hated. Rupert Murdoch is one of the most disliked people in this country. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJG Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 2 minutes ago, Avatree said: Disney, fox, comcast, whoever, why would they want to put it on VOD in the first place? it's the new X-Men movie... yes the last one dropped a lot but it still made 500M worldwide why on earth would they pull it from cinemas? Exactly this. The Franchise is on a downward trend (and let’s face it, it’s over and finished), but it’s still a big franchise with two big brand names and logos attached to it title. Launching a new service with the film on it would be gigantic (bigger than anything Netflix and Amazon have ever done). It would solidify Disney as a major competitor to Netflix.

Just to add to this: its not a small boycott either, people in Liverpool refuse to buy Murdoch papers. An Arsenal fan YouTube channel had a sponsorship with The Sun newspaper and people were so outraged they had to apologise. That family is hated.

They do need to kick off their new streaming service with a bang. Of all the big franchises they have, its probably the best one to go I suppose.

Belle Posted June 20, 2018 Share Posted June 20, 2018 1 hour ago, poweranimals said: These big blockbusters have a lot more competition now as well which makes it more impressive when it makes so much money. Tickets these days cost so much more these days, iirc they said last year ticket sales were down but in terms of money it was as much or bigger iirc, You have 3D, imax, Imax 3D, special seats, whatever other gimmick there is. And the overseas markets have grown so much in recent years. 2 hours ago, Jessie said: Yes it did. Rogue one made 500m and dory wasn't far off. You just proved my point The numbers will always get bigger and these box office records have as much weight as any other record. 2B also isn't the new billion yet because unless you're Avatar you still need a big performance both domestically and overseas. That said, as already mentioned in an age of internet, expensive tickets and franchises, this trend of big numbers makes sense as large groups of people are probably only gonna go see one or two big movies per year and then pirate or not give two craps about everything else. Nostalgia helps too. Many movie that have made near or past 500M domestic since 2015 have been based on IPs that many people want to see due to nostalgia and cross-generational appeal (Jurassic World, Finding Dory, Rogue One, Beauty and the Beast, Force Awakens, and Incredibles 2 once it gets past that mark). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The increase in market size around the world though is also attributable to local content rapidly becoming bigger in countries like China, South Korea, India or even Japan where the local market is still strong but imports far less so.

Sky TV is Comcast's prime motivator. Disney wants that but there are tons of other Fox stations it wants in the US as well as content from Fox TV and film and their third of Hulu. X-Men is part of that but it's negligible like F4 or even Doom. It's not as if Marvel hasn't done OK without them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
