The Mystery of "Making a Profit"

Recommended Posts

We can differ on the exact amount, but what is clear is that film need so gross A LOT more than it actual production cost of just break even.

 

In the end, the only profit number that really matters is the overall profit of a film studio at the end of the year .

 

But, yeah, Hollywood accounting is wonky. Things are done in the film industry which if you even tried in any other industry would get you a quick trip to Club Fed for fraud.

If a movie makes 2x its budget, usually the narrative is that it's a success. We'll never know the nuances of it, but that is the general threshold for franchise continuation and/or added filmmaker clout, independent of more intangible factors like awards and critic/audience reception

only if China BO takes a major portion (only 22%)
