This hunk of monke shit needs $400m to break even and it's not happening. Hollywood's apocalyptic summer continues. Next is Furiosa.

It flopped
Extreme cope
Daily average is already down to ~$3m with other big titles about to come out and drown it. Zero chance it makes it to $400m.
the data goes only up to May 15
the box-office peaks are usually every Friday to Sunday, also the international market is going well, this will easily make 400 million and more, i'm betting on 500 million
also i don't know why morons on here even started caring about box office over the quality of films themselves
>Daily avg is 3m
The numbers you have are for 6 days. 72/6 is not 3. You're also being disingenuous because Friday-Saturday-Sunday, the numbers jump significantly, while they fall for all the other days of the week, with the exception of Tuesday, because of $5 Tuesdays.
moron, these numbers are a week old
It should have been called Star Wars: Kingdom of the Planet of the Avengers: Into the Spiderverse if it didn't want to flop.
Godzilla and Ghostbusters both had capeshit titles and they flopped.
Godzilla x Kong didn't flop
How dis make you feel white boy
Extreme cope as others have pointed out. All the of the previous planet of the apes films have made ~500m at the box office. The exception was Dawn which made ~700m. Also, the box office split between domestic and international on the Apes films has always been 30% Domestic, 70% international. Right now for Kingdom, the percentage split is 50-50. Wait for the International market to become the lion's share of revenue.
Also, nothing new released this week (or noteworthy), Kingdom will still be #1 at the box office this weekend.
Unsurprisingly. Reminder that so far only 3 Hollywood big budget movies have made money this year (Dune 2, Godzilla vs Kong 2 and kung fu Panda 4).
Damn, those are the only 3 big budget Hollywood movies to come out this year. Argylle doesn't count because you're 250m number is how much Apple paid for it, not how much it cost to produce. The only one you can claim is Madame Web. That's the only big budget flop of 2024. But go ahead, name the other big budgets that flopped.
to be fair Fall Guy and Ghostbusters also flopped, but yeah, not that many big Hollywood films came out really
Those movies flopped so hard I forgot about them lol.
Aquaman 2 came out last year technically, but really it was this year's flop since it only spent a week in theatres last year and the rest of its run was this year
I think the box office rules of thumb are pretty much obsolete in 2024.
>not done its theatrical run yet
>calls it a flop
Pleb, please.
It's done. Not profitable enough during its opening week.
Cinemaphile is filled with absolute morons who not only give a shit about box office in the first place but also don't even know what the frick they're talking about when mentioning box office
it's opening was good, and in fact bigger than the opening of War, and War did decently in box office numbers
this films will undoubtedly make 400+ million worldwide
No it won't and I've read similar fan boyish wishful thinking before and the ending is always the same: the movie ends up underperforming/losing money.
Cinemaphile is almost never right about this shit, most of the posters here are total morons
I haven't seen the monke movie and I have no interest in it, but I do find the "expertise" on box-office here insufferable. The whole method boils down to pointing a finger at every movie and screaming FLOP and then when some of those movies do flop pretend like you weren't just playing roulette. This film is doing well, and will absolutely hit the 400 million mark. It might still underperform compared to the previous three but it's definitely breaking even.
Cinemaphile was right about The Little Mermaid, Challengers, Fall Guy (among others) and is right about this Planet if the Apes movie too: it's a flop.
Did Challengers really have a big budget? I can't imagine it's more than 20m.
USD 55 million believe it or not. A ridiculous budget and a predictable flop.
>55 milly to have some homos kiss a monkey
At least you get your monkey bang for the buck with Kong and Planet of the Apes.
>The Little Mermaid
Did not flop, did big numbers on streaming too.
>Challengers
Sure, that one was honestly obvious. Spending 55 million on a homoerotic sports drama, no idea what was Guadagnino thinking. He should have ditched Zendaya and used some lesser known actress instead. I bet at least a third of the budget went to her. That film did not have mass appeal from the start and should've been more economic with it's budget.
>The Fall Guy
I never seen much flop posting on this one. In fact people were surprised it flopped. But even if some people were pointing that out, that's just two. And Cinemaphile screams flop at EVERY film that comes out. I saw people saying Wonka will flop, Dune 2 will flop, and then they did very well in box-office. Also many were rooting for Civil War to flop but i will probably pass 110 million before dropping on streaming, plus merch sales, plus the streaming deal, plus they sold distribution rights to China which is a bit more money on top of everything. A24 gambled well on Garland, probably covered their losses with that Ari Aster movie.
Cinemaphile wasn't right about anything.
The board is just full of reactionary right-wing morons who claim that every film that has a minority or a female lead will flop. And then when the majority of them don't, they claim that the film was actually not woke anyway and that's why it didn't flop
Broken clock twice a day and all the rest
the entire industry is flopping
>it's definitely breaking even.
So, flopping.
They don’t produce $160m movies to barely crawl over $400m, that’s called a failure. This was supposed to launch a new series of monke movies which is probably not happening now.
I think it's disingenuous to label it a flop when most movies have no business having production budgets over 100m. Studios have stop pretending every summer blockbuster is going to break 1bn at the box office. They go in with that mindset and they have no problem bloating the budgets. The problem with that strategy is only something like 10 movies have actually broken the 1bn mark in their initial run. I don't know why studios think every single big budget movie they produce will join that club.
Ok, I take back my comment lol. It seems like at least 5 movies break the 1bn mark every year for quite a while.
What? Like only one or two movies per year manage that. Usually only a single one. Yet companies bloat budgets for every blockbuster. It's either the most insane gamble ever or as you originally said they're not actually expecting more from there than to just break even. Rest is a bonus.
>no artistic prestige for making a copy of a copy sequel that no one asked for
>movie is guaranteed to not be remembered as a classic, just another entry in a middling series
>hopefully it'll at least break even
grim
Look at Boxofficemojo under the Worldwide category. From about 2010-2019 an average of four movies broke the 1bn mark each year. Then from 1997 to 2009, at least one movie would break the 1bn mark.
b***h is fricking done
does she have any idea how erotic those erect nipples are?
It opened 2mil ahead of War and since it's has weaker midweek numbers it's now 1mil behind where War was by it's first Thursday. The real problem is that Kingdom is doing so much worse in China only opening to 11mil while War did 59miland finished at 112.
As much of a homosexual as OP is he's probably right and it won't make it to 400mil
>Next is Furiosa.
Furiosa better fricking flop. But I suspect it will do decent at around $500m workldwide.
It's getting rave reviews and is the "sequel" (technically prequel or whatever) to Fury Road. So all the normie pseuds who think they're cultured and want to support "real cinema" will probably go see it
>But I suspect it will do decent at around $500m workldwide.
>It's getting rave reviews and is the "sequel" (technically prequel or whatever) to Fury Road
Fury Road didn't even make 400mil
Sequels typically make more than the previous film (when the sequel isn't an absolute dumpsterfire of a clusterfrick).
Even Frozen 2 which was shit and immediately memory-holed made more than Frozen
Fury Road was a sleeper hit, and gained lots of popularity after it was out of cinemas. Now all the people who saw Fury Road + the people who saw it after cinemas will see Furiosa. This guarantees a larger box office. Also, ticket prices are much more than they were in 2015, so again a bigger box office. Furiosa will easily make 400m.
I also want to add that Furiosa won't have any competition at the box office until June 14 when Inside Out 2 comes out. The biggest movies that come out after Furiosa are
>In a Violent Nature (R-rated indie horror)
>The Dead Don't Hurt (foreign Western lol guaranteed flop)
>Bad Boys: Ride or Die (who asked for this)
>The Watchers (M. Night Shyamalan's daughter's movie)
There's a slight chance Bad Boys could topple Furiosa since it's a black people movie, and black people always show up in droves for black people movies.
I'll always watch Bad Boys
