Also that example illustrates nicely that you make more money with big spike big drop than both being more mild. not only that but its still estimates we will know more in a couple of hours could go up like it did with monday (or low ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These are estimates, but very late and should be quite close to actuals since a vast majority of locations have already reported their sales for the day. 8.7 is among the most boring, normal, right on track numbers imaginable, but after a big OW any day that’s not bad is good in my book Edited March 14, 2019 by Thanos Legion 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poweranimals Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Why is Deadline reporting that Captain Marvel needs to make $750 million to break even? That doesn't sound right. https://deadline.com/2019/03/captain-marvel-tuesday-box-office-record-1202574950/ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the market changes to more and more 'Chinese situation', like a huge GA rush to early screenings too. I think per reserved seating the OS part will get even bigger than it already get to Counting worldwide = might change the parameters for forecasts, and the later estimates again and again. I am curious to see if the 2nd WE drops will be really that good, if all calculations had the 'out-of-school' during weekdays detail included and such. But will be happy if it gets such kind of drops 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe its a typo - again? Proofreading is not a strength of Deadline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poweranimals Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Trolls are now claiming that it's so high because Disney is buying out all the tickets to inflate the box office. I swear I can't with these people. 1 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cdsacken Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Thursday projection like 8.3 million? Gotg 2 dropped 5% after 7.5 million first Wednesday then had a 65 million 2nd weekend. If it follows the same drop it would do 68.3 give or take. Granted that was in early May and 2017. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Without having read the article, I find it funny that Deadline sites 750 as the break even. Marvel isn't making movies just for profit and they never really have since IM. They do it for the money no doubt but they also do it to set up future earnings. CM is really just a trailer for the next phase of the Marvel universe. Even if it needed a billion to break even, it wouldn't really matter because their future earnings is all part of the plan. And I'm not sure how DL came up with 750, that seems kind of absurd. So they are basically saying Marvel spent 375 million on the film? I doubt it that's high and even if it is, this notion that you need to earn double your total expenditures is nonsense. As for what it will potentially make this weekend, I think the drop will be 55-60%, just like most Marvel second weekends. This is not going to drop less than 50% did like BP. Also, it's March Break here in Canada this week so the Friday jumps will be slightly lower than normal. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesn't sound right. https://deadline.com/2019/03/captain-marvel-tuesday-box-office-record-1202574950/ It will breakeven at the end of Week One, but total at Week One would be $570mn, not $750mn. The film would be costing $400mn Approx to Marvel. $200mn in from Week One worldwide theatricals and $200mn from ancillaries. Every penny made from here on point i.e. $225mn Approx ($530mn+ Gross) will be Profit. Yeah there will be taxation and stuff but let's talk raw profit.
