Oh me...130 million dollar budget...


...and on the heels of The Nutcracker(over 125 million in the hole) and Ralph Breaks the Internet(currently over 100 million in the red).

Basically appealing to two markets...USA and UK. It needs to be a HUGE smash in these two markets if this is to not be YET ANOTHER money loser.

reply

Ralph has made over $285 million worldwide on a budget of of $175 million. How is that a money loser?

reply

lol Queen....

Mary Poppins is predicted to out Gross Aquaman Domestically....

Ralph is going to make a Large profit...

Disney is still going to Win, No Dominate the year for the 6th out of 7 years, easily Winning BY BILLIONS over Studios like WB and Universal...


Disney is currently having its "worst year"in A decade when in comes to Flops.....and Yet is still dominating every other Studio By Billions...

PS

I think I know why your trolling so hard on Disney this year.....

You know 2019 is coming ....You know Disney is going to have the greatest year in Hollywood Box office History in 2019....you know the entire year is going to be nothing but PURE HELL FOR YOU...

lol has it hit you yet that exactly 1 year from right now Disney will have at least 4 highest grossng movies of 2019.....

NOT 4 of the highest grossing 2019 films.....NO LITERALLY Disney Will have the 4 highest grossing films of 2019 in Avengers 4, The Lion King, Frozen 2, Toy Story 4

and Possible the Top 6 Highest Grossing films With Aladdin and Star Wars 9

but back to 2018

3 of the 4 highest grossing film of 2018

Over 2 Billion In Profit despite a number of flops.

Destroyed WB by Billions, WB having A nice little bunch back year after a disastrous 2017....WB puts together A string of a dozen or so nice little hits, lol Disney's Murders WB With ONLY 3 films resulting in WB Losing by BILLIONS once again



PS

any info on Aquaman's budgets...

I've read a bunch on conflicting reports but from everything I read, The budget is between 165 to 200 Million....and I just recently read that WB has really spent a TON on Marketing for the final push...with reports of 120 to 150 on Marketing...

So from what I'm seeing Aquaman's total costs is between 300 to 350 Million...

which would mean the break even point is 650 to 700 Million +

but I'm also hearing Wan got An Awesome deal and He gets a percent of any profit made on the film...

So hypothetically speaking, It looks like WB did it again ....and spent too much on a Films budget...

that was the great thing about WW...and why WB made so much profit....


lets say Aquaman makes 900 Million....

that would be around a 100 Million dollar Profit for WB, considering theaters get half...

but lets assume Wan got a 10 to 15% deal...

that means WB only makes 85 to 90 Million in Profit from Aquaman....

again a nice little hit....but certainly nothing to brag about for you.....remember you werent impressed with AM2 which netted Disney at least 120 Million in Profit....

its also worth noting, that 85 to 90 Million is probably less considering 1/3 of Aquamans box office is coming from China which WB only make 25% of....

We could be looking at a situation where WB only makes like 70 Million in Profit from Aquaman...

again....a hit but as FOR YOU....I'm just not sure how you BRAG or Troll about that considering, you made your stance very clear that you were impressed with AM2 120 Million + profit...

but I'll never under estimate your desperation, If anyone can find a way to claim 70 Million in Profit is great for Aquaman but 120 M is bad for AM2 its you queen

reply

"Ralph is going to make a large profit"

LOLOLOLOLOLOL

I just about fell out of my chair reading that...especially in the context of what you say the break-even point for Aquaman could possibly be.

Do tell. I can't wait to hear the difference in breakeven points for Aquaman vs. Ralph.

Hahaha...I'm waaaiiiting.

reply

$285M on a $175M budget. It's been out for a month already too.

reply

billbrown continues to embarrass himself in relation to this movie.

LOL

Not only will it make a profit, he says, but a "LARGE profit".

LOLOLOLOLOL

reply

Uh...bill?

I'm waiting for the breakdown for Ralph's "large profit". Why did you disappear?

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

reply

Just wait, over the x-mas weekend, Ralph Breaks Internet is going to have a holiday resurgence and pull in over 800 quintillion dollars over the 5 days.

reply

LOL

reply

"lol queen...

Mary Poppins is predicted to outgross Aquaman domestically."

Haha...I think the "lol" needs to be directed at yourself, bill..dontchathink?

You sure are stacking up a pile of embarrassments lately.

reply

Ummm...bill...I know you've crawled away in embarrassment but I would just LOVE another taunting thread from you like your embarrassing one where you said Ralph Breaks the Internet was having a bigger opening weekend than the Grinch...except it wasn't...it was considerably LESS...and the numbers were right there in front of you.

I am hoping for something similar from you in relation to Aquaman/Mary Poppins...but even you aren't THAT. stupid.

Learn to ween yourself off of boxoffice pro, bill and start thinking for yourself. You've been grasping to these 350 million domestic predictions for months now. You even called me an "idiot" when I laughed in your face for believing them.

"It's Christmas you complete idiot" you said. Well...it better take off like a ROCKET soon.

^^^ ouch queen....

Aquaman seems to be already being effected by The Average to below average WOM...

early projections put Aquaman between 70 to 75 M(some had it at 83 M) for the 3 day weekend, But now its already coming in lower than expected with 68 M

of course this is NO WHERE the 135 M + 3 day weekend you repeatedly guaranteed for Aquaman...

it seems Aquaman Is about 50 Million dollars LESS RED HOT than you were expecting

Aquaman's reviews and consensus is stunning Low, Its like the worst reviewed. decent reviewed movie ever...

WOM seems to be effecting it Literally OUT of the gate....this does not bode well for long term prospects domestically, Your repeated guarantees of A 400 M + Jumanji run is DEAD

Its going to be quite interesting to see just what kinda of drops Aquaman has in the next week, it could get ugly considering the competition and The Excellent Reviewed competition that Have Great WOM that will play good all Xmas.

thanks to an Over performance overseas Aquaman is going to be a hit and make quite a bit..but it now seems Its going to have A drastic 70/30 domestic/overseas split, which is quite unusual for DCEU films

as for The Grinch and Ralph, Ralph Opened to 84 M and The Grinch opened to 67 M..Epic Fail

As for Mary Poppins, the way you continue to make the same mistakes astonishes me...how many times have you've just the gun and The lived to regret it?

this is not an exaggeration, every single box office site or analysts that has talked Mary Poppins Box office before it came out and now....ALL say This film is all about Legs, Literally No one expects or predicted it to open HUGE...instead they expect it to Play strong for months, Thats what Musicals do...I'm not kidding literally go read any projection or prediction from any site, They all specifically note the film wont open big but is A Long term play..

yet here you are again, Jumping the gun because you dont understand box office, claiming Mary Poppins is failing because Its not opening big...

speaking of "stacking up a pile of embarrassments" and "crawling away"

you yourself have now stacked a pretty big pile and dont seem at all to want to talk about them...

I mean you missed about as badly as anyone could possible Miss on The Grinch...

lol you predicted it to make 500 Million domestically, 1.2 Billion + WW and Dethrone Frozen as the highest Animated film of all time...

lol and you seemed to have crawled into a dark hole of silence after that Pile of embarrassment, I havent seen you address this disastrous miss ONCE...

now you've just straight SHIT THE BED with your Aquaman prediction....lol Aquaman isn't even close to the RED HOT box office or hype you've repeatedly guaranteed...

Your going to miss by probably more than 50 M on Aquaman's OW(worth Noting that will be the 6th film in the last year you have missed by more than 50 Million on its OW)

and I bet you 100$, you'll crawl into a hole of silence when you reply and wont dare touch the subject of Aquaman opening 50 M less than you expected, instead you'll try to turn the focus to The Grinch and Ralph and Only respond back to that subject...

so basically , probably not a good idea for you to throw out phrases like " You sure are stacking up a pile of embarrassments lately." and "Crawling Away" considering they exactly describe YOU


PS when you do the Math, Aquaman is ONLY going to make WB A small profit....I did the math in another reply to you please check that reply to witness HORROR and embarrassment...

and I dont mean Horror and embarrassment for the film or WB ...no I mean just YOU...

Hilariously it seems Ant-Man 2 is now destined to be almost twice as successful and Profitable as Aquaman...

this has to be truly gut wrenching for you consider you've spent 6 months claiming AM2 is not very successful...

your now going to be in a position where Aquaman is less Profitable than AM2....how you are going to spin Aquaman is a Huge hit for making 60 to 67.5 M in Profit and AM2 is NOT successful for making 120 M+ in profit is going to be fun to watch
