>didn't bomb
Hollywood just says whatever it wants now, nobody should be trusting any kind of numbers like that, all those 'under the table' deals to inflate numbers.
>Iron Man 1 and 2 >Cpt America 1 and 2 >Spiderman 1 and 2 >Thor Ragnarok >Blade 1 and 2 >GOTG 1 and 2 >Batman 2022 >TDK >Tom Holland Spidermovies >Hulk 2008
should i continue?
It's only a bomb in the sense of it being a shitty movie (better than The Batman 2022 tho), how are you not seeing how that's independent of the fact that it turned a profit.
Morbius hasn't made a profit yet. >listed budget: $83m >doubled for advertising: $166m >current box office: $163m
The thing is, a movie has to do more than just "make a profit." Movies are a massive investment, and investors want to see the biggest returns for their investments. If they only get paid back what they invested, they're not going to be happy, and they're not going to continue investing in your films, nor will other potential investors because it's a fricking waste of time to invest $50m only to get $50m back.
Studios hire social media marketing firms to run their internet marketing campaigns, and those firms charge out the ass to produce memes like "it's morbin time."
>advertising costs meme again
Who do you think Hollywood holds more obligations and legal liabilities, their actors/investors or some instagram/facebook ads.
They're going to pay their actors NO MATTER what they promised zuckerberg, they would rather break contract and resign on a box office bomb.
What legal requirement do you think there is to be honest to some news outlet reporting the costs of advertising?
Advertising costs money, anon, and they're contractually obligated to pay for those advertisements. If they try to not pay, they're just going to be taken to court where they'll lose, and then good luck ever getting anyone to help you advertise your future shitty movies. Good luck making a deal with anyone now that it's public knowledge you don't uphold contracts and can't pay what you promise.
You'd be an absolute moron to try to break a contract with fricking Facebook, one of the biggest companies on the fricking planet. Are you fricking stupid or something? Go lick the window.
you have no idea how things work LMAO.
You really think they're spending half the budget, a third, on ads?
Get real, those numbers convince people whether or not they should go see the movie.
And both of you are going hard on what i used as a hypothetical.
Actors aren't going hungry you morons, that's the point.
They do their best to hide what they pay the actors.
They do their best to inflate ad costs, they have no reason to be honest with news outlets which report those numbers. Because it brings in gullible viewers like you two.

Hollywood spends double their listed budget on advertising and other hidden costs, anon. That's a basic fact. I hope you're enjoying your first day on Cinemaphile.

You're someone who has never discussed this topic before since "Hollywood spends double their listed budget on advertising and other hidden costs" was brand new information to you, anon.
This fact also didn't come from Cinemaphile. Maybe you should stop talking about things you know nothing about (while also hilariously trying to pretend like you know more than other anons who actually know what they're discussing) and do something constructive with your time.

You're a moron who got told that its good practice to double a budget to account for advertising and other unlisted costs and just apply it as if its an actual rule, like an autist.
I don't think anyone even heard of morbius. I doubt they spent 80 mil on advertising

Morbius had a massive advertising campaign, especially online where they pushed memes. You're just wrong.

Sony knew it wasn't going to rank bank on a re-release, it was a cheap marketing stunt that has kept this movie being talked about for weeks. As Sony racks coin off people buying and renting it online.
It hasn't. Literally the reply above you proves you're wrong
Morbius hasn't made a profit yet. >listed budget: $83m >doubled for advertising: $166m >current box office: $163m

they put it back in theaters as a flex
Because it made a tidy profit & didn't bomb the first time and knowing the power of memes, put it back in just to curbstomp morbchuds.
Worked out just fine.
>didn't bomb

The absolute cope.

Movies can do that?
according to /tvtards...
a movie can make a profit, yet bomb, then go meme and back into theaters to make more profit, yet bomb.
I mean...
you aren't exactly swimming in the pit of genius in here, anon.

Do you really need to double the budget for advertising nowadays?
Internet advertising is cheap
I hadn't heard of morbius until they announced it was being re-released because of memes
>Do you really need to double the budget for advertising nowadays?
Yes, you do.

Also you need to note that worldwide box office doesn't mean shit. The studio gets barely anything from foreign sales compared to domestic.
>been shilling his gimmick channel for over a year
>148 subs
ouch
He'd get more subs if he actually made good videos instead of just trash nobody cares about.
Sony knew it wasn't going to rank bank on a re-release, it was a cheap marketing stunt that has kept this movie being talked about for weeks. As Sony racks coin off people buying and renting it online.
this
the double box office bomb justice league happened before though
It doubled its budget. I know that sucks in Marvel terms but how is that bombing?
moron
movie budgets aren't like videogame budgets where advertising is part of the listed cost, double the budget for actual cost
yeah bro, actors actually are going hungry out there for box office bombs
It hasn't. Literally the reply above you proves you're wrong
Back for Morb
The Morb the Merrier
More-bius
Well they say third time is the charm.
>WOW they spent a hundred mil on ads?!?!? THAT MEANS ITS GOOD!!!!
>I better go watch it, this is going to be epic
A clock is morb twice a day
>hahaha ur new haha because Cinemaphile lol
>oh no i actually didn't get it from Cinemaphile lol
What do you guys think happened to the corporate moron who greenlit a second showing? How bad did they get flogged after the 85k weekend?
it's a flex from the higher ups mad about the memes.
>we will make you like !!!!!!
