Quote from: 900SL on May 31, 2017, 03:21:36 PMAs I understand it, and I quote here:'An American motion picture studio typically gets back somewhere about 40% to 50% of the domestic box office gross a motion picture makes at the theater. A distribution fee, usually 10% to 12%, is paid to the company that distributes the film (doing much of the advertising and preparation and shipment of the copies of the film).The movie theaters also get a significant cut, and take an increasing amount of the box office returns the longer a film is in theaters, based on the workings of the deals they have signed with the distribution company. For the first two weeks, most of the money goes to the studio; from week 3 on, increasingly more of the money goes to the movie theater.Foreign distribution and foreign movie theaters keep more of the box office gross for themselves (often to cover the costs of transporting a motion picture overseas and promoting it there as well). American studios tend to get back something about 30% of box office money earned outside of the United States and Canad'Based on this assessment:Current domestic gross: 60M so the Studio may get 30-40M from that, not much more as we are beyond the first two weeks. Overseas: 100M, the studio gets about 30M based on the aboveDomestic video/streaming sales: May make 30M gross, 15M net for the studio..So we are looking at 60- 70M return on 100M investment so far. It might break even, even make a small profit, although China is unlikely to give a significant boost, as the %age returns are low and the film doesn't tick the right boxes with the Chinese audience (no 3-D, too much dialogue) plus ist is not seen as a hit in the US..

Quote from: banecat on Jun 02, 2017, 09:47:26 AMi remember in my showing, at 730 on the opening friday night, there was only about 30 people in there. i don't particularly get why it hasn't done better, the reviews aren't that bad. does anyone else fear that the box office performance is leading us to a reboot of the series?
