lab276 Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 I don't know, I'm just not disappointed in it. At least it was a good movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moviedweeb Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 There's no way Universal only spent $45 million on the global marketing and distribution for a $120 million Tom Cruise film.You are probably right, but my point was that the film has not made any profit yet.

GodIsCool Posted May 31, 2013 Share Posted May 31, 2013 There's no way Universal only spent $45 million on the global marketing and distribution for a $120 million Tom Cruise film. There's no way they spent much more than that. The marketing was lacklustre both in terms of quality and saturation. They didn't even have a Superbowl trailer, something that makde perfect sense considering its release date. Universal effectively dumped this movie and banked almost solely Cruise's star power to sell it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moviedweeb Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Looks like $300m WW isn't completely off the table yet. It only needs ~$33m more and it's apparently outperforming Skyfall in Japan (which made ~$32m). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 I think more like 20M ... 25M seems a little optimistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Nope not possible. honestly, I mean it, this is the most disappointing BO run I have seen. This film deserves WAY better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Marvel Fanboy Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 Just as AE is not a flop, Oblivion is not a flop. Flop at DOM doesnot make it a WW flop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GodIsCool Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 I'd say without Iron Man 3 it would have made 10% more. Bloody Iron Man. With a good marketing compaign it would have made $350m. Marketing campaign was the worst for a big studio movie since John Carter. They played the plot too close to their chests, hoping people would be intrigued by a mystery, but instead it failed to capture what the story was about or give the movie a hook.

The Dark Alfred Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 With a summer opening it certainly would have made a lot more. Look at the god awful AE doing a 45m opening, Oblivion would have easily done 60m and its legs would have been better as well. At least it's still beating AE both domestically and OS lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
