NPC shit right here
And it only took AN ENTIRE FRICKING MONTH!!!!
Btw it's also a hit in the Philippines!
>And it only took AN ENTIRE FRICKING MONTH
Your average movie can't do that numbers kek
You mean like how a cartoon based on a video game from the 80s blew black mermaid out of the water with over a billion dollars?
?? one reason why Mermaid and Spiderverse2 did great openings, is because SuperMario was a success. Increasing the theater traffic of the same demographics. That's how movie theaters work. They only compete if they have the same theatrical window. if they come one after the other with little overlap then we look at priming demographics. For Example; Little Mermaid's success with women domestically is helping Barbie's box office tracking. When Antman3 flopped, the tracking for Shazam2 dropped significantly; then Shazam2 flopping blunted the opening weekend of Guardians3; but Guardians3 was an exceptional film so it had amazing legs and is now I think at 850mil.
Your average movie doesn't cost $250 mil plus another estimated $250 mil in publicity costs, neither does it open in thousands of screens during a major holiday weekend only to underperform embarrassingly.
Considering the theaters' share, TLM will end up losing some $ 100 mil at the very least. It was a major disaster for Disney.
Ouch if true
No, passing 500mil it's definitely profitable; not much, but profitable; the ancillaries will make it profit for real.
Even if we use the most exaggerated numbers; 250 production 140 marketing = 390; we have a simple formula to estimate the breakeven point; production+marketin+(a third of both) = 520mil (that's the exaggerated number). This number is exaggerated even more when you consider Mermaid makes more domestically than internationally; studios take 60% of domestic box office and 25% from China; meaning for a studio to make 50 mil it either needs 80mil domestically or 200mil in China; that's why FastX is on shaky ground but Mermaid less so; FastX made much more internationally.
Domestic overperformers make more money and have a lower breakeven point.
Mermaid is safe and maybe profitable already with the movie itself.
mmmm Nope.... You guys obsessively hate on this film so much ur projecting its breakeven point to be the same as Avatar2 and Avengers Endgame???? lol. Stop for a moment and bask in the silliness.
Deadline did a financial analysis; and we all talked bout it; low 400's bad, high 400's good; it just passed 500mil !?
your average movie doesn't have 1 billion in advertising
Not that much but I would not be surprised if TLM ends up being the movie with the highest publicity costs this year. The fact that it was worth nothing is a harsh lesson to studios.
Finally! It broke even!
Nope it’s still 60 million down.
https://deadline.com/2023/05/little-mermaid-box-office-profit-loss-halle-bailey-1235383099/
Interdasting
actually it is; a bit over 400million was the "flopping limit". It already reached 500 and it's still got gas in the tank; so it will profit, but not a lot; unless you include the ancillaries other than the film itself. I'm actually impressed of how strong this film's legs are; this week domestically it's #4 or #5 after 5 weeks!!! despite so much competition and many screens will be taken away as more films r released; this June was crazy, Mermaid swam through.
It didn't, lol
the "it needs 500 millions to break even" bullshit only took into consideration the 250 million production budget, but not the 140 million marketing campaign. The movie needs to make another 280 millions to break even
Who taught you math?
Theaters keep 50% of the money, so Disney needs 280m to make back the 140m they spent on marketing
Even under Disney draconian terms it's probably more than that.
The most draconian they managed to squeeze out of theaters was 65% for The Last Jedi. I doubt they can get those types of favorable splits anymore.
Yes, those days are gone for sure because the Disney brand is going down the drain
Elemental plus Mermaid plus Indiana Jones will cost them a billion dollars right there.
and post covid considered. squeezing theatres should be harder
broke even? did you hear those financial wizards on this thread??? Apparently Little Mermaid's breakeven point is higher than that of Avengers endgame and that of Avatar2.....lol.
we broke it down with Deadline; we concluded low 400 is bad high 400's is safe; it just passed 500mil and it still ranks 5-6th place domestically and it saw some crazy success in the Philippines and Japan; in the former it's now their biggest film of the year over Mario, Guardians, Spiderverse, FastX...
https://deadline.com/2023/05/little-mermaid-box-office-profit-loss-halle-bailey-1235383099/
kek, chuds in full damage control
>nnnoo see I’m baiting you guys making me the winner you see
it won’t get to a billion which is basically the line you have to cross for your film to be a hit these days.
disney has to buy a little bit more of their own tickets this time huh
>a little more of their own tickets
They better stay in line because imminent bomb Indiana Jones and the Walker of Cope is out Friday.
$250m budget
$140m marketing
Break even is closer to $625~700m depending on the metric you use. Also, I'm pretty sure Disney doesn't like to break even when live action remakes used to break $1 billion easily.
They obviously expected a lot more than the numbers their much cheaper Cinderella movie did. None of the other live-action remakes had a cartoon tie-in in production.
https://variety.com/2023/tv/global/disney-junior-ariel-the-little-mermaid-1235642365/#!
(Interesting how they use blackwashed Ariel, but go with the original's Flounder.)
Considering the past live action Disney movies cost much less and all made around US$1 billion, it's quite obvious that The Little Mermaid is a massive financial flop. It also severely harmed if not destroyed the Little Mermaid brand which used to be an easy sell with immense appeal worldwide.
The environment isn't the same anymore. Aladdin would never make a billion today and TLM even as a disney animation wasn't as popular as the aladdin.
Even something considered as successful like guardians of the galaxy 3 underperformed considering the performance of its predecessor. I won't even talk about Indy 5 which is set to be a way worst disaster for disney.
I promise you if they had made Ariel a pretty white ginger it would have made a billion dollars.
Nah. Hollywood aint about making ''good'' movies anymore.
Then they’ll die and out of their ashes will rise the era of Mario and the Minions. Illuminationchads, our time is near
Tahbks satan but what happens with the israelites working in Disnoiid? ofcourse they will jump ship, most likely to illuminatroons and do the same thing there. the command from the top is eternal. HAVE MORE N-WORD PPL. MORE TRANS AND LESS WHYTE PPL. THAT IS THE COMMAND. SEIG HEIL BAAL.
You were 7 away from greatness, even with your weird broken moron English.
C-C-C-C--CLOSE BUT NO ZIGAR.(I didn't kill enough goyim for Moloch)
Based on what? Alladdin was more popular, it barely crossed a billion and TLM was less popular as a disney animation than Aladdin. 4 movies made more than a billion in 2022 and 2023: JWD, TGM, Mario and Avatar 2. Why would TLM be among the 4 movies that made it? And not among the dozen that flopped? 9 movies made more than a billion in 2019.
Based on the fact that theres not another kids movie in theaters with a white lead. Look at what the Top Gun sequel did. That’s literally all it would take in todays box office.
>top gun sequel is a kid's movie
>lets pretend flash isn't a thing
Lol, are you implying that israeli fairy is white?
Average people can't tell, and do not care.
Obviously, because Will Smith doesn't have the same public image compared to back then, but Aladdin probably would still pull good numbers because Disney wouldn't dare raceswap Arab characters so they would keep it true to what the original was.
> Aladdin would never make a billion today
That's postfact cope since there was a lot of hype about TLM making $ 1 bil and the market is there, since Mario Bros got there.
And TLM was popular in the whole world: Disney lost, among others, the Asian market, where Ariel used to be enormously cherished before Disney ruined the brand with its misguided casting and poorly made live action flop.
There was also hype about Fast X making more than a billion, and Flash doing the same (at least internally at WB). The market was overestimated, people didn't understand how bad it got since covid.
Both went below expectations but Fast X underperformed while still being marginally lucrative and paving the way for the next installment, whereas TLM flopped and sank.
140 million marketing budget?
Try 330 million. Disney is so fricked
Sorry but No. This is the first live action remake to hit theaters post-pandemic and post D+; they worried families will sit it out, they didn't. I noticed some crazy numbers going around in social media, it's funny; they're basically claiming Little Mermaid and Avatar have the same breakeven point....seriously?
lmao good work yidsney shill, just 300,000,000 more dollars until it breaks even
still not break even
it's way past that actually. We always said that, deadline told you that; aim for high 400's to be safe, it went over 500 we're past any uncertainty; all this information is out there; u guys come up with crazy numbers; just on this page anonymous posts basically claiming Avatar2 and Mermaid have the same breakeven point!!! lol
Quote from Deadline;
"At that level, per finance sources, off a reported $250M production cost and $140M global marketing spend, The Little Mermaid could very well break-even. However, anything in the low $400M global threshold and this fish is apt to be sinking to a loss of around $20M".
https://deadline.com/2023/05/little-mermaid-box-office-profit-loss-halle-bailey-1235383099/
>makes a billion dollars in the first week
As another thread has pointed out, blockbusters are supposed to make a billion now.
They're supposed to profit at least. Cinemaphile has this weird idea that breaking even is a success
>They're supposed to profit at least.
When? Where? They're sum propeganda machine not our telltale bednight stories B. They're paid by Larry Frankie D Golot. THE THIRD ARM/S OF GOVERNMENT. Larry makes the White house b***hES and GLOWBlack folk buy HIS SHIT.
LARRY. WILL. MAKE. YOU. LOVE. Black folk. homosexualS. WOMEN AND..HIS FAT wiener!
Nice now can all the blacks stop complaining
>he believes Disney grabs all trhe money from box office.
The movie cost 250 millions to make, then nearly 150 millions for marketing.
This movie need one fricking BILLION to make profit.
Because Disney only grab 15 % to 40 % of the price of tickets sold in the world.Yeah, theaters don't work for free.
It's the end of the end of coruse for the movie, so it BOMBED.
I'm getting tired of you guys pretending to be moronic. You know this hasn't done well. You know it didn't make any money. It's just constantly beating a beehive with a stick
These threads are probably made by ppl who want to see the fact that the movie flopped being highlighted over and over again
we always told you go high above 400 to be safe; Mermaid made it past a 500mil; We talked about this at nauseam; including the industry's reference, Deadline;
quote:
"At that level, per finance sources, off a reported $250M production cost and $140M global marketing spend, The Little Mermaid could very well break-even. However, anything in the low $400M global threshold and this fish is apt to be sinking to a loss of around $20M."
https://deadline.com/2023/05/little-mermaid-box-office-profit-loss-halle-bailey-1235383099/
we told you again and again and again and again; low 400's bad, high 400's safe; Mermaid went above 500. Mermaid is a domestic overperformer "these have an even lower breakeven point";
Deadline analysis that was discussed and we said Mermaid will be lucky to make 500mil.
quote from Deadline's financial assessment:
"...At that level, per finance sources, off a reported $250M production cost and $140M global marketing spend, The Little Mermaid could very well break-even. However, anything in the low $400M global threshold and this fish is apt to be sinking to a loss of around $20M...."
didnt they have to do some scences in full CGI because she couldnt swim?

I-It's over lads...racism has been defeated by the overwhelming powers of black excellence...
Is there ANY proof that the mermaid ''flopped''? Not like they lost any money..
Legit question.
Yeah. You just use the same metric we use to measure any films success and it's lost money
?Hollywood is sponsored by BlackRock, and BR takes the goyims taxe. They literally lose nothing on this. companies might go ''under'' but the people don't. they will just change their names and emblems.
There’s some truth to this but if Indians Jones preforms the way it’s expected to then Disney might lose a billion dollars by August. Not matter the leverage Blackrocks ESG ratings exert Disneys board of directors won’t be able to ignore a billion dollar film division deficit.
>They literally lose nothing on this
Asset Management is a highly competitive market, so yeah, they do in a cumulative fashion. If BR can't guarantee positive returns, Vanguard (for instance) will overtake it. israeli conspiracies are geopolitics and economics for morons who still want to play at being smug and knowledgeable.
>Vanguard (for instance) will overtake it
Vanguard literally owns BR/s stocks or whatever it is thoughtsoever.. And don't get so ippidy on the goyim word you filthy fricking goyim(it's nothing personal)
>billion dollars
Liteally nothing. and by Disney losing means nothing, If Dosneed goes under, it means literally nothing.
Flop is accurate, bomb is not, it’s 50ish million under its break even point but no matter what you call it Disney considers it an abject failure. Which is good for movies in general, casting choices based around controversy is bad for movies. Hopefully we’re one step closer to the return of making movies to entertain people instead of educate them on social issues. I think if you’re spending time on this board then you love movies and want to see them return to entertainment. I know I do.
Actually I'm here for the pursuit of keks so controversial castings is right up my alley.
Yeah I get that but I miss going to the movies and having fun. Even kids movies have social messages now.
>casting choices based around controversy is bad for movies
They've known this for years, they aren't changing because they're doing it on purpose. It's not about controversy, it's about frick you.
Let's lowball it in terms of costs and assume it cost, say USD 400 mil total (budget+publicity).
Let's also be very generous, for the argument's sake, in terms of box office and assume it ends up making USD 650 mil.
These USD 250 mil would evaporate when you take into account the theaters' share and the time/money investment (that is, the resources that went into the movie instead of another project).
A movie with big revenue expectations starts off burdened by costs that have to be offset at the start. When TLM underperformed during its initial 5 day run it was already a flop and the brutally negative reaction overseas doomed not just the movie but the character: merchandise doesn't sell bc it's unpopular among kids etc etc
Yes
ahh disney is buying tickets for their own movies again

bravo nolan
You have no idea what you're talking about holly shit. Fast X just barely grossed more than twice its production budget. It is going to end up with a worst ration of its box office to its production budget than TLM. Account for the fact that its more China leaning and TLM domestic leaning and TLM will have a way larger benefice.
Now for the next installement it's even worst, since the fast and furious franchise is on the decline since the 8 the tenth installement confirming this decline.
Out of all the bombs this year TLM is probably not even going to be in the top 5. Hell it could not even make the top 10 depending one how the rest of the year turn out.
>You have no idea what you're talking about holly shit. Fast X just barely grossed more than twice its production budget.
You're the one left adrift by your armchair, simpleton rationale. Try to find onesingle article saying Fast X flopped-- you won't bc it didn't, it's an established brand that remains marketable even if its box office was below expectations. Now TLM cost a lot in terms of marketing and went nowhere, it's just a burden for Disney now.
Sid you even try to use google?
https://movieweb.com/fast-x-domestic-box-office-is-close-to-a-disaster-for-the-franchise/
Also there is an obvious reason for people talking more about TLM bombing than other movies. Culture wars.
The clickbait title is predictably contradicted by the article's content:
> Fast X has certainly pulled in a decent box office result in principle
>the film has not been a complete bomb and will pick up plenty additional profit from its physical and digital home releases
Next time read the text first maybe
This is relative wording. By this account TLM would also not be a complete bomb even if it made mess than 500 because no movie makes. The only trouble being its budget. It is still a bomb. Article about it do not matter if it couldn't even make its budget.
That's exactly what spider verse did. Release for sequels are annouced all the time before work is finished.
Meant Fast X is a flop, not a bomb. Like TLM is. And one is going to make less money than the other.
>Fast X
>#3 highest-grossing 2023 movie worldwide
>flop
>budget 340 million
There's your answer.
That answers nothing: you have no idea what a flop or a box office bomb means.The word you're looking for is underperforming, but not one rational person will call Fast X either a "flop" or a "bomb"
There's no concrete definition of what constitutes a flop or a bomb, but a bomb is always much worse than a flop.
Flop just means it didn't break even. Bomb usually is much worse, like it didn't even break its production budget.
It definitely is flopping, but it's not bombing.
>highest grossing 2023 movie
That’s not a very high bar now is it?
It is considering the amount of literal flops this year: TLM, The Flash, Dungeons and Dragons, Elementals. At least Fast X is one of the few 2023 blockbusters that will make some money.
It won't make any money like what the frick. The movie made 20% of its box office in China. Syudio only get a 25% cut in that country. It bombed in the US where studios have the highest share.
>It won't make any money like what the frick
Again, you have no idea what you're talking about. A 5 sec google search will have several articles uniformly calling it a modest box office success.
I don't give a shit about how many blog consider it useful to make an article about how it flopped or didn't. The numbers are clear. It didn't break even.
Do you constantly feel the need to be spoonfeeded your opinion?
Ignore the disney employees.
They're subhuman vermin just yapping on, repeating their bullshit like zombie rodents. Getting into a debate with them is like debating a woman; complete waste of time
Giving up already?
What did I 'give up'?
You already lost the argument. We won.
Your movie is a flop.
Not blogs: articles from the movie press are calling Fast X a modest hit. You're that type of ignoramus who presumes outside info will match your misconception without actually checking it out first.
We're not talking about TLM you bandwagoning moron
TLM is the 5th highest grossing movie in 2023
>headcanon
Since we are comparing TLM and fast X gross, why would post theatratical release be more profitable to Fast X than to TLM relative to its budget? Given how domestic leaning TLM has been I would bet it has the upper hand. I don't know of many home media services in China.
Heavy cope. It will easily get 69 million off of other resources outside of the Box Office. The kinoplex is dead and no longer the sole factor in a movie's performance.
If you’re talking about mermaid then nobody is going to buy the home release they’ll just wait until it hits Disney+
I’m sure they’re still working on post but most of these actors are booked with LOTS of other projects. I’d be amazed if the x-2 hasn’t already been shot. Also you can’t compare a computer animated movie with a live action movie.
I don’t what the guy you’re responding to said but I’ve read in several different places that they shot this movie and the next one (maybe 2?) at the same time so it’ll be easier to recoup when the release the second half of 10.
Yeah I have read that as well in here but based on what?
I can’t find anything concrete except they’ve announced the x-2 release date in April of 2025 and I would doubt they would announce the release date if they hadn’t already filmed.
>The Little Mermaid
At least 350 million budget due to promotion
Needs 700 million to get its money back
Lol
Am I mismerembering things? I recall this earning a million or two per day from my checking, and it was at 477 just earlier today.
International numbers are added on sunday (estimate) and then monday (actuals) on box office mojo. Thus there is always a big jump on sunday. The 2 million added each day are the domestic numbers.
I see.
didn't expect the movie to be a massive success, but the fact that it's actually flopping is crazy. should've been an easy slam dunk and yet it won't break even. guess it must be because everyone is racist.
wow, $500 million. Did it break even yet?
Production? Sure. Marketing? Hell no. It's still deep in the hole.
The My Black person Mermaid Wars were the most exciting part of the Greater Internet homosexual Conflict
I knew it was going to be bad when I saw the main actress. Like how you gonna have the bad guy mog the frick out of the princess?
don't these live action remakes usually make like 10 billion each
Yeah, until their DEI officer decided that this is the perfect time to start experimenting with raceswaps and changing the entire fricking thing. They figured the people will just watch any slop as long as it has the name.
Yes, that's what the shills always ignore.
Beauty & the Beast, Lion King, Jungle Book, and Aladdin were all huge successes, each making >$1 billion worldwide. Lion King even got close to $ 2 billion. The shills are being deliberately obtuse when they demand that you judge the performance of Little Mermaid in a vacuum, completely disconnected from the other live-action atrocities.
You cannot understate just how much of a disappointment and flop Little Mermaid is for Yidsney. This should have been another easy $1-2 billion success, and it completely blew up in their stupid faces.
what fricking morons are watching this and spiderverse? the only good thing about these movies is that they are now redflags indicator
People brought in by it being related, at least in name, to an IP that they liked.
Literally the only reason these nig-makes and nig-imaginings can ever make money is coasting on the coattails of much better moviescreated by white people about white characters, lol.
It would be making billions if the was a pretty white redhead.
Even though the movie uses extensive CGI, I can't see it costing more than likely a hundred milly to make. These budgets are way too unrealistic.
Still got lapped by black spiderman despite a week head start.
I fricking love watching this wokeshit flop
Hope it teaches disney a big lesson.
500 million box office
minus half for the theaters
so really 250 million
film's budget 250 million
I'm really BTFO, it made its budget back guys!
let's forget it needs to make another 280 million at the box office to cover the 140 million marketing budget. no matter how you cut it it's a flop.
there is a market for woke but you're looking at a hard cap of 200 million for production and marketing budget. Disney just spends way too much.
If there were any way in which Disney could have spun The Little Mermaid narrative into a success story it would have tried it already through its unofficial spokespeople in the movie press. There's no way to persuasively do it without being mocked even more, so it just turned its back on the movie
uh it cost 1 trillion dollars to make
