nice damage control mouse homosexual
Surely this strange market action isn’t Disney snapping up their own tickets
Thats the two week cumulative global total anon, its not good at all for a film that needs to make over $700million to break even.....
Find the disney faker, wish needs 2.5 billion to break even.
dumb mouse shill it needs 20 billion to break even
>dumb mouse shill it needs 20 billion to break even
You joke, but given the amount Disney bought Fox for just so they could make X-Men and Fantastic Four movies, the first of either of those which they make will literally be climbing a $70,000,000,000+ mountain.
> Wish, the latest film from Walt Disney Animation Studios, has had an impressive second weekend internationally, grossing $81.6 million at the global box office.
This is written to make you think it did $82 million in one weekend. In actuality, that is its global total since day-1. This movie has no legs in the U.S. It's already fallen out of the daily top-5 and is grossing less than Trolls 3, a movie that came out before it.
Cinemaphile will cope and seethe not realizing Disney is literally too big to fall. The company is one of the most expensive assets on the planet, having a stake in the company is a massive boon even if they released 100 movies in a row that each lost 100 million. This stage of capitalism isn't about sales or profits, it's about the speculated value of entities and brands. They have cornered the market and cannot be outcompeted, so their products can fail every time and they still win.
Quite frankly only the morons insist Disney is in trouble because of movie flops when their movie department hasn't been their primary money maker in decades
>primary money maker
no one is calling it that. It IS however now a primary money destroyer
Federal Reserve debt notes are not money, no matter how much the tribe insists otherwise.
They’re so unconcerned that the CEO is going on air and and having uncomfortable interviews about where they’re going wrong.
In case you didn’t know, the parks aren’t doing well either.
maybe people are just sick of corporate mickey mouse shit and everyone is disdainful because of how they fricked over the public domain
If they keep making flops, their reputation will drop. People also already gravitate to what the believe other people like. If Disney starts being seen as unpopular, it will affect them.
None of this is guaranteed from a few flops, and won't happen overnight even if it does happen of course.
Well in the past decade they’ve bought Marvel, Lucasfilms and Fox so it seems like they expected to make some money out of them
They’ve been having a bad time the past 2 years
how are the star wars hotel and Florida lawsuit going?
Ey, dipshits, lets do some maths.
If chuds have 2+ kids and libs have 0 (1 aborted, actually) and chuds are fricking done with woke shit, how is it going to fare for the company which primary target demograpich is kids and their parents?
They were not even able to retain the capeshit targets which could have delayed shit hitting the fan
You are the real moron here. The movies themselves don't make money, but they are the how they launch new IPs that they use for theme parks and cruises and merchandise. If the new IP's premier movie bombs, it doesn't bode well for merchandising and park theming based on the movie.
Yeah, because their parks are doing great, moronic troon.
Yeah, not like we had a global pandemic or anything.
>coping with muh pandemic in 2022
correct. it was not a pandemic
>Yeah, not like we had a global pandemic or anything.
Correct; it was just a lie designed to cool off the global economy so it didn't collapse, while also pushing for more centralized control over our lives.
You can see with most of those it was the covid shutdowns that kneecapped them hard. After the shutdowns ended most of the parks bounced back.
>bounced back to 10-20% below pre pandemic
Yes? I mean just look at the graph you posted. Very obviously people started going back in a big way once lockdowns ended, and park attendance reflects that. If some parks lost attendance even after lockdowns ended, it's probably due to people losing their jobs, or just deciding not to bother with a trip they had planned earlier, but attendance doubling from 2020-2021 and then increasing by another huge leap, is clearly indicate of a bounce back. A couple parks actually did better in 2022 than they did in 2019.
based i hope they fricking implode and go bankrupt
drumpf economy vs biden economy
Not him but just go on youtube search disney parks and you'll find multiple video how parks are empty, there's video evidence. No one is going, the boycott is real.
>Quite frankly only the morons insist Disney is in trouble because of movie flops when their movie department hasn't been their primary money maker in decades
They aren't even breaking even on movies though, they are LOSING BILLIONS
Illumination is already starting to eat their lunch with Mario nerd. Plus whoever did puss in boots
The sharks smell blood in the water
>Plus whoever did puss in boots
Dreamworks
Which is universal like Illumination
illumination is about to finally take the reigns from disney, if their rumoured projects are true, disney is about to lose the young female market as well, doing movies about peach, daisy and rosalina focused at young girls will have a much bigger appeal than the recycled ideas disney is doing for their current projects, mario truly opened the floodgates to disney's doom
Maybe but their peach sucked and Mario was boring. Only puss in boots was actually good. Mario just shows how desperate people are for shit that isn't Black person troony propaganda
>it’s fine if the movies all fail, the real money is in the parks (attractions are either old as shit or based on the movies nobody watched) and merchandise (also based on the movies nobody watched)
>interest in these things is generated from the aether and will never go away
>competition? people can spend their money elsewhere or just not spend it at all? what the frick are you talking about?
>This stage of capitalism
>hire communists to write your brand stories
Genius strategy.
In 2023 communism is just another brand people use to appear a certain way to others. No different than wearing airpods in 2019.
What sharks? Disney has no competitors. If anything close to what you say happens, Disney will just buy them. lol
>interest in these things is generated from the aether and will never go away
Yes. People will always watch Disneyslop. And if they stop, they'll start again a few years later. When the likes of Disney finally go under, prepare for total collapse and 2 decades of real hardship.
Yidsney is ruining/ruined it's brand, they thing that you say makes it invincible. When a Disney movie comes out people have to ask around if it's ok to watch
>Yes. People will always watch Disneyslop.
Care to read the OP again, mouseBlack person?
>Capitalists subsume and commodify everything, even criticisms of capitalism
No one predicted this.
It’s beautiful, god I love capitalism
Babylon was destroyed
Rome fell
Britannia withered
So too will Disney
It will collapse like General Electric

sounds like someone doesn't know about the huge government audit findings that were just released
all is fair until you skimp out on giving daddy IRS & SEC their cuts for the past 50 years
qrd?
>reedy creek is the special taxing district by the florida state legislature, essentially it's the governing body of WDW
>walt's original idea was to essentially turn this into epcot with residential housing and such
>but he died before it was realized and before the land was really turned into anything
>disney had made the agreement back in 1967 or so that they would build up the land, the government loved the idea of EPCOT
>but disney quickly said na frick that we have full governing power of this area we decide what to do with it
so they basically have full control of this land where it was thought for the longest time was only disney employees, but this audit uncovers it was actual tax payers as well
and for years disney have double taxed them basically by taxing, spending frivolously, labeling this as common area maintenance, then doing it again because you still have to pay regular taxes, we're just now charging you for maintenance of the area as well
maintenance having a very loose definition being whatever the frick they want, maintenance of the area was not actually kept up
when anyone asks questions (the audit's words) "akin to bribing" they were offered annual passes or hotel stays or cruise discounts
and everyone from the top down knew about it and there's email evidence that they knew and for years just let it slide
they were spending like 2 million every year in this district on annual passes and cruise discounts and hotel discounts to use as bribes which were never reported
one example they give of frivolous spending is disney used 70 million in public bond funds to pay for new parking garages and out of that 70 milllion, 10 of it was funded by the surrounding community
so yeah millions in unreported benefits, misuse of tax funds, and using tax free bonds for services the community don't actually have access to
Wow they got wienery. Hope they get btfo
>villain is bad because he doesn't auto-accept all wishes like in Bruce Almighty and makes sure contradicting wishes don't all get granted or for someone having a bad day to have a school-shooter tier wish get granted
How can an entire team of paid writers not see a problem here? I feel like even children can understand the plot of Bruce Almighty and why wishes need to be curated.
>bruce almighty is a better movie than modern pixar/yidsney
how did this happen?
Bruce Almighty is better than most movies
For me its Evan Almighty

>How can an entire team of paid writers not see a problem here?
They had a different story but then rewrote it and had to justify recycling as much of the animation as possible. It's not surprising that the end product is a disjointed muddled mess.
No, he's bad because he doesn't tell people this, while taking their wish lobotomizes them, and he refuses to return it for no reason. Don't criticize tge plot of movies you haven't even seen.
>for no reason
so are you trying to convince us it was written by children?
>he refuses to return it for no reason
What a dumb plot. Are the writers actual morons?
i haven't seen the movie but what does "returning" the wish do? if they were actually going to work to achieve their dreams, they could've done so in the first place instead of praying to the patriarchy for handouts
>movie tells you they forget their wish and live a happy life because you aren't living day by day waiting for that wish to come true so you focus on other needs
>except for 2 people who for some reason one remembers he made a wish and hasn't came true and the second made a complete 180 of his entire persona and then there that new couple who somehow felt something wrong
this plot was self contradicting
What's extra sad is that there is a popular Disney movie that most of these writers probably watched as kids, along with a recent live action remake, that specifically shows why some people should not have their wishes granted. Seriously, when they were making references to other Disney movies did not one of them think about Aladdin?
Nah the villain is bad because he doesn't give the wishes back and goes mad with power.
>Impressive
How's it impressive to do worse that that Bree movie? This article is pure cope
>on it's way to grossing less than a 100 million in its theatrical run
that is impressive, i didn't know that could happen with a disney movie
and they say right wingers can't make works of art
gem
>made less than $100m in two whole fricking weeks GLOBALLY
holy kek
They should have released the Lilo and Stitch airplane cut, they would have made millions
>eat shit Cinemaphile
Sorry, I won't be watching Wish.
must consume product
must protect big corpo (for free)
Lmao that's $82m for its entire run so far. Massive flop
>With a breakdown of $42 million domestic and $39.6 million international for its second weekend, Wish, which has a reported price tag of around $200 million, seems to have continued the trend of Disney animations struggling. Wish is ranked the fifth film of the weekend, as the animation continues to compete with both Napoleon and The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, as well as Takashi Yamazaki's newly released Godzilla Minus One.
Even the damage control article can’t fully deny it’s a flop.
>WW total of $81.6
Will it even make 200 million?
> has now opened in France, Switzerland, Germany, Austria and Turkey
Literally nothing, it's still bombing. It's just a staggered flop, nothing to see here
>Germany
It debuted at #1 there. Wishsisters, we won.
>Read article
>The $81.6m isn't what it made on the weekend
>It isn't even what it's made internationally so far
>It's international plus domestic since its release
Fricking kek, Disney isn't sending their best
The mouse is broke.
>still over $200m away from turning a profit
Lol
Lmao
Over $400m, actually
I can't believe they use Chris Pine, a white Russian israeli American instead of an authentic Moorish actor.
Lol this is no "Elemental legs" that was getting good world of mouth and the RT score went from rotten to fresh, while wish went down. Domestic is dead for Wish and international wont save it
Elementals' supposed legs were nothing to write home about either
Elemental still flopped, but it flopped so little that it can turn a profit from streaming or merch. And people seem to like it, giving Pixar a bit of its reputation back. I found it mediocre, but if we're comparing it to every other Disney movie in the last couple years, it's probably among the good ones.
Wish? Wish sucks. It's the very pinnacle of mid.
Going to theatre this sunday to watch this with my daughter
Are you going with her boyfriend too?
Shes four. No boyfriends for a long time luckily
Yeah. You're her first.
>As of December4, 2023,Wishhas grossed $42.6million in the United States and Canada, and $39.8million in other territories, for a WORLDWIDE total of $82.4million.[4][5]
>Budget $175–200million
It made $100 per theater (3900 total) in the USA yesterday. Going to get dropped as soon as theaters are allowed by contract.
>at normal prices that's about 20 people per theater
>at California prices (the only people who realistically are buying tickets) that's 6 asses in seats in a room that can fit a hundred
nice 100th anniversary film, homosexuals
they could have printed money if not for the genius decision to turn male-centric IPs which were bought because of their male appeal into boring girl power shit
Oh no, keep in mind most theaters have multiple showtimes. If it’s a modest 3 showtimes in a day, that’s 2-3 people per showing.
Just looked it up, Marvels sold $83/theater yesterday. On Saturday, the two movies sold $905 and $529 respectively.
I’ve seen bigger theaters that have 10-15 showings in a day, particularly Friday or Saturday. Are the theaters contractually obliged to keep the movie on multiple screens for a certain amount of time?
>Oh no, keep in mind most theaters have multiple showtimes
oh shit, "theater" refers to the building and not each individual room/screening? I think that means there's a not insignificant number of times the projector is running for a completely empty room
picrel, Iger, it's worth considering before Peltz gets to you
That’s what I mean, if that’s the case what is stopping the theaters from saying frick it and just screening something people actually will pay to see. I imagine the mouse has them by the balls with some kind of contract
The contract is something like
>you're going to show this movie for X weeks because if you don't we won't allow you to show our upcoming movies and any one of them could be the next avatar or mario level smash hit
At this point I wouldn't be surprised if the theaters ask for an upfront fee to cover a movie flopping and they'd be dumb not to
Makes sense, thank you
>if that’s the case what is stopping the theaters from saying frick it and just screening something people actually will pay to see.
Bundling. Theaters are forced into contracts where they have to screen obviously less popular movies for a set minimum, in exchange they get access to the big ticket movies that they would rather devote all their screens to. If they refuse the bundle, they don't get the blockbusters that drives big crowds to the theaters.
At least that's the way it did work, but nowadays with the "big blockbusters" bombing hard, theaters might be reexamining if bundles are worth their time at all.
>Are the theaters contractually obliged to keep the movie on multiple screens for a certain amount of time?
Yes. Typically the theater will have a minimum where it's something like "This movie must run on one (or more) screen the entire day".
>62 replies
>4 images
box office threads are the lowest form of thread
Since everyone here is too jaded to actually appreciate movies as an art form, they just quote numbers like shareholders to pretend/troll it's a culture war.
Too bad OP's numbers are still dire and misrepresented.
>actually appreciate movies
you appreciate yidsney slop as art? lmao
Haven't since Wreck-it Ralph.
Because it turns out the people making movies are just as jaded.
>just as jaded
They also don’t have children and in some cases actively hate children. Funny enough, they have no idea how to appeal to children
>there aren't enough images in this thread
What a moronic post lol
Are they going to revise it 20 years later?
Boy and the Heron going to massacre it
Wonka will be the nail in the coffin. Apparently that movie is getting better reviews than the Johnny Depp remake and Timmy does draw a crowd.
>81 million in 2 weeks
>impressive
You do realize that disney/pixar movies used to make more than that on their opening weekend, right?
That move needs to make 500-600 million to be profitable and it probably won't even reach 200, moron. This shit made 99$ per theater on Monday. This is like 6 people per theater and it hasn't even been 2 full weeks since release lmao.
reminder when Elemental "flopped" in its opening week much to Cinemaphile's amusement only to be saved by its lasting performance over time?
Disney Animated films have legs and Wish will be profitable by Christmas
>elemental bombed in its opening weekend
>had a comeback
>still flopped, but at least not a bomb
I guess you gotta take your wins wherever you can.
They earned 70% of their gross outside of the US which lessened their take away, and also you get less split the longer your film sits in the cinema
Not to mention middling cultural and marketing impact, who are buying toys or merchandise of these things now?
>Elemental got saved by korea because asiatic director
>good word of mouth
>not terrible US numbers
>still didn't crack 500m
>only to be saved
>496 mil box office, meaning around 230 mil profit (85 domestic and 145 foreign), probably less given most of the box office is from after the first several weeks when theatres make a larger cut
>200 mil budget and 100 mil marketing (so 300 mil actual budget)
Eat shit and and hero, mouse shill.
You lose.
You know, if I were an American theatre owner, I would be pissed that theatres in China get a better deal from American movie companies when showing the same movies. How the hell did the chink theatres manage that anyways?
It was either a 25% cut or the chink theaters pirate it and Mouse gets 0%
OH NO NO NO /misc/BROS WE GOT TOO wienerY

This might be a bigger bomb than the Marvels, which is one of the worst bombs of all time.
