It actually needed much more than that. The studio gets much less from international box offices, so when you factor in that a greater proportion of the total box office was from theaters abroad, they needed like $500M - $600M to break even.
How are theatres taking any cut when their soul driving force is movies themselves.
My guess is theatres are has stains making their only profit from selling popcorn.
They tried to simplify the way they taught math to little kids so black kids would learn more. It was handled very poorly and left the kids even more confused.
It’s based on the idea of teaching kids mental tricks to do math faster in their head instead of actual math. It’s all stuff that should only be talked about after a real education in math is accomplished, but ivory tower academics thought it might be a possible way to get nonwhites to understand math better
>Spend 200 dollars to build a table >Spend 200 dollars to market your table >Someone buys your table for 200 dollars >200 dollars is a lot of money tho!
This. It's pretty simple. Iron man 3 was a huge hit after avengers 1 for opposite reason. This followed Antman 3 and features 2 disney+ characters. People will watch it on disney+
because eternals, doctor strange 2, thor love and thunder and ant-man 3 were disliked to some extent and so it eventually caught up to marvel.
plus this movie is also not very good itself.
Generally a movie needs to make around 2.5x times its budget to breakeven because theaters take around half (less for opening weekend and more as the movie plays)
Of course budget numbers are given by the studios to the trades and we never really know if they're higher or lower, so it's all just a guess.
$400 million is under estimating how much money this film needed to gross to be profitable. This movie was mostly filmed in the UK. In order to qualify for a UK subsidy, they had to publish how much they spent in the UK in public filings - $274.8 million USD. The UK government gave them a $55 million dollar subsidy, so the net spending was just under $220 million. Movie theaters take approximately half the gross, so it would need roughly $440 million to just cover the UK production costs.
Note that does not include any post production work done outside of the UK, or any of the marketing costs, which of course drive the break even point higher.
This is a great thing for her! Now she can say she's flopped in a massive budget game, a massive budget television show, and a massive budget movie! Not many characters can say they got three chances with stupidly huge budgets and they all cratered. Real trendsetter right here!
This character is literally poison is every media she's in. Her TV show failed, her movie failed, her video game failed. Her comics have been cancelled and relaunched multiple times despite the fact that she's only been around for a decade. But Marvel really thinks she's their future. Their latest gamble is making her a mutant by the way.
I dunno how old she is, presuming over 18 here - if there was ONE scene where she's shown semi nude or revealing in any way, the dregs of the internet would have salivated over her pudgy poo thunder thighs enough to put this movie profitable
Sex sells. It even works for fat boxy shaped chicks
what characters does Marvel have left that aren't either X-MEN or Spider-Man characters (so gunked up legally with Fox) that might get people excited again?
it's kind of impressive that flash was in development hell for years, went through half a dozen directors and rewrites, had the lead actor get arrested, was released digitally just four weeks after it's release and it still made more than the marvels
Because in a movie franchise a movie doesn't make money on their own merits. It was always judged using a basis of how good the previous movie did. The best example is The Last Jedi, a lot of the tickets solds were from fans expecting something of the Force Awaken.
In the case of Marvels, after turds like Ant Man 3, people have little incentive to give it a try.
all that, plus there was an unironic smear campaign against ezra and the movie since those native american grifter parents were campaigning and had a shill network for months on end pushing BS allegations
and Flash still made more. lol
>afraid that people won't see the sequel to your movie that made a billion dollars >"fix" the movie by making the main characters ugly brown people
The world will never know why the movie flopped.
I don't care strongly about Captain Marvel as a character, I have no fricking clue who the other two are, it doesn't seem to have any particularly interesting style or angle beyond generic MCU, and I already know it's not an important part of some larger narrative. I might catch it on streaming if there's nothing else on but I would never consider going to see it in the kinoplex in a million years.
Because they made a female targeted movie in a genre women do not like. The only times women ever really watch marvel is when their boyfriend/husband/male family members are watching it. Obviously men aren’t interested in watching a shitty woke movie starring a bunch of ugly feminists in nascar suits so they didn’t see it, and since men didn’t see it neither did women. If you want female superheroes to be successful you have to make them attractive to men both looks and personality wise. Not every movie will be the last movie to be released in a franchise about to release the most hyped and anticipated movie of all time.
Movie was making less and less money each passing day then suddenly surged up to clear 200 mil in a totally organic way. Why? It's still far short of making its money back. Why fake it to 200 mil?
200 million is a lot of money tho
Not when it need to make 400 million to start making money for Disney
It actually needed much more than that. The studio gets much less from international box offices, so when you factor in that a greater proportion of the total box office was from theaters abroad, they needed like $500M - $600M to break even.
>cost $300 million to produce
>another $100 million on marketing
>theatres take a huge cut of earnings
200mil against all this means big oof
How are theatres taking any cut when their soul driving force is movies themselves.
My guess is theatres are has stains making their only profit from selling popcorn.
>soul
It cost 300 million+ to make, not including advertising and distribution costs. It didn't make 200 million, it lost 400-600 million.
200 million MADE . That means profit
Back to English class ESL
Common core was a mistake
not american, qrd on common core?

>post bait
>guaranteed “ACHSHULLY THEY NEED TO MAKE 43x because…” verbatim from YouTube critics
Kek, classic anon.
>I was just pretending to be moronic
ah, truly a classic.
have a nice day
>That post isn't real, but even if it was real that would be a good thing
It's not. Even in terms of theater attendance and ignoring the budget
Not when it needs $600m to break even
was estimated to need between 600-800 to brake even
>Spend 200 dollars to build a table
>Spend 200 dollars to market your table

Nope. Maybe 30 years ago.
Characters that nobody cares about + post Endgame capeshit era, everyone just tired of superhero schlock
This. It's pretty simple. Iron man 3 was a huge hit after avengers 1 for opposite reason. This followed Antman 3 and features 2 disney+ characters. People will watch it on disney+
bunp
Genre fatigue, maybe poorly marketed, requires too much homework, characters aren’t that popular.
Don't forget the fact that it also sucked buttholes.
because eternals, doctor strange 2, thor love and thunder and ant-man 3 were disliked to some extent and so it eventually caught up to marvel.
plus this movie is also not very good itself.
And they still will continue to make this kind of garbage ~~*they*~~ are mentally ill.
Where's the proof that it needed to make $400 million? That always gets posted but never sourced, it sounds like cope honestly.

Wew
>or any of the marketing costs
what fricking marketing?
Cinemaphile posts
They put ads out for it during football games when they realized women likely wouldn’t turn out to watch it.
I’m honestly confused as to who even watched it. Not a single person I know has seen it.
She deserved better.
literally the least watched show on D+
This is a great thing for her! Now she can say she's flopped in a massive budget game, a massive budget television show, and a massive budget movie! Not many characters can say they got three chances with stupidly huge budgets and they all cratered. Real trendsetter right here!
Iman isn't actually the character moron and she had nothing to do with the avengers game

The actress seems nice so she should do normal movies instead of super hero shit.
I dunno how old she is, presuming over 18 here - if there was ONE scene where she's shown semi nude or revealing in any way, the dregs of the internet would have salivated over her pudgy poo thunder thighs enough to put this movie profitable
Sex sells. It even works for fat boxy shaped chicks
She's in her early 20s
Pretty much this. If The Marvels just redesigned the costumes to be sexy the movie would have been profitable. They could have changed nothing else.
>The actress seems nice
stop bootlicking Hollywood scums
this is not a complicated answer to give: nobody cares for any of these characters. as simple as that.
what characters does Marvel have left that aren't either X-MEN or Spider-Man characters (so gunked up legally with Fox) that might get people excited again?
Was i supposed to watch capeshit? I don't think so.
it's kind of impressive that flash was in development hell for years, went through half a dozen directors and rewrites, had the lead actor get arrested, was released digitally just four weeks after it's release and it still made more than the marvels
Pretty sure it was a better movie too

>almost half of what indiana jones made
grim
I wish I could fail into $200m profit.
>profit
Is there an article explaining how this is due to racism and sexism? Surely there must be.
Bree is pretty cute from the waist up
the thing on the top right.. not the thing on the top left... top right- what's that stuff on its head
barnacles
I hope Brie Larson goes the coomer route like Jennifer Lawrence and Alison Brie and Heather Graham
And Hunter Schafer
Was Monica's silhouette intentional?
Maybe
Why would it succed?

Still too much. I was expecting it to make 50 million.
>200 million
>failure
>Why did it fail?
Because we got told the movie wasnt for white straight men so we respected their wishes.
>Because we got told the movie wasnt for white straight men
source?
frick off moron

who are these pathetic morons that still went to watch it?
