Aquaman's success is why WB continues to make DC films, it's a gold mine for them. Animation is still a bit hit and miss for them as they don't have the same consistency as WDAS, Pixar or Illumination.

That has always perplexed me, especially since most of the marketing for WAG’s movies have been garbage when WB is usually on top marketing wise next to Disney.

Teen Titans Go To The Movies deserved to make more money

Smallfoot's marketing was good and it did do better business than both Ninjago and Storks.

Just saw MARY POPPINS RETURNS in an almost full theatre. Anecdotal, I know, but people are going to continue seeing this for awhile so legs will be really good.

 

I forget who, but someone here said when they watched it they just felt happy. Now I understand the feeling. I'm a 30 year old man and yet I caught myself smiling wide on multiple occasions. It's a movie that just makes you forget about everything going on in your life.

Only slightly (I do admit House With Clock hurt it and it’d have a chance at $100M otherwise), but they could’ve been better like TLM/TLBM or more rampant.

How about we actually talk about interesting things like numbers.... or actually good looking people (*coughWOMENcough*) instead of turning this thread into a fucking sausage fest? :ph34r:

Are you saying that only women are good looking people? :redcapes:

& let's be real the gayz talking about women waaaaay more often than straight guys. When will a straight guy watch Good Looking WomanTM  Nicole Kidman's entire filmography and realize Birth & The Portrait of a Lady are masterpieces? Nevah.

Good legs won't really make up for terrible opening though, hopes for a massive BATB like success are long gone. With a total cost of 200 million at minimum, it needs to gross around 400 million worldwide to break even. 

 

Domestic will be 140 million after this 18 million weekend.  Giving it generous holds of 14, 11, 9, 7, 5, 4, 3, 2, 2 for remaining weekends, gives us 57 million for weekends, then add in the proportional 33 million weekdays gives us 230 total domestic.  To meet 400 million, MPR needs to double its foreign totals from 85 to 170 which it should do with more markets opening but the question is how far above 400 will it get?

It costs $130m, but Disney tends to over-spend on P&A, so who knows how much they'll need to break even [i'd assume $350m worldwide?]

Yeah, I just went with the rule of thumb to add about 50% to a production budget to get the total budget, so 130 million production budget and 70 million for P/A for an even 200 million total cost.  Using the other rule of thumb that studios usually take in about 50percent of total global revenue, it would mean 400 million is the breakeven point.  I'm pretty sure MPR will get there but i'm not sure about getting to loftier numbers like 500 million worldwide or better.

Jason Momoa is super hot but I wouldn't watch a movie just for him. If I'm not going to be jerking off in the theatre, what's the point? Besides you can find a guy that looks just like him in 3 minutes on PornHub (e.g. Jaxton Wheeler), and you'll actually get to see him fucking. Lol.

I'm 38% gay, I thought Momoa was hot in Game Of Thrones, but after seeing his goofy side in interviews for Justice League, and knowing about the beautiful love story between him and his wife, I just can't see him like that anymore.

Amber Heard though, I would let her spank me so hard.

Thank you for sharing...

Total P&A for MPR is closer to 125-150 mill WW so it has almost no chance hitting a breakeven in theaters
