According to Deadline, The Call of the Wild has a budget of 135 million...That's nuts.

 

Yeah, this is where it's so subjective to talk about success and failure.

 

Relative to expectation and what might expect of a Call of the Wild adaptation, 21m would be a perfectly good opening weekend by sane measures. Unfortunately the budget was Insane.

they never got embarrassed because they can explain everything by night show performance.

Didn't bother doing a major report last night. Call of the Wild did pretty good here (definitely think being in old-people-capital Victoria helped it, with Ford and the older source material). Woulda guessed something like ~1.3M previews. Movie just got bumped to the biggest auditorium at the one theatre that I can actually track sales for, so that's something.

It's blowing my mind that The Call of the Wild carries a budget of $125M+. Yeah, they used a CGI dog almost the whole time but still. The people at Fox clearly didn't care during those last days of the studio as we knew it knowing that another studio would take the losses.
