How many movies really do need a budget of 150m dollars? Even with the global numbers, this isn't going to recover their money.

It's the same logic with AAA and indie gaming. There seems to be no more room to have something in between budget film. It's either independant, or massive effects movie.

Its because americans spend way to much on special effects to carry a movie.

Just dont, the end.

=> profits.

 

 Time to start makeing movies without everyone flying around, millions of explosions, ect.

Well, time to roll out the DLC and micro transactions. Failing movie studios have much to learn from the gaming industry on how to make real money.


Free2playWatch games Movies comeing soon to a theature near you.

Well, they did it to themselves. Everyone gave birth to Micheal Bay.

That's what happens when you name a movie after a kitchen appliance

I think you're thinking of blockbusters only.  Sicario, Whiplash, etc. were made in America

Thank GOD... maybe now the whole "let's remake each and every Disney classic we can get our hands on" will end.

Was Disney even involved here? When they are it can result in pretty good stuff, example: Maleficent or the new Cinderella


What? Maleficent was garbage. I mean, turning the most villanious character in Disney films into basically a loving, caring, mother figure was just... no.

 

I didn't see Cinderella though. But even so, leave the classics alone! It's almost like no one can come up with something original anymore.


Remember, most Disney classics are butchered versions of the real classics written by other people in other countries. 

 

Maleficient was pretty awesome as it gave depth to a villain character in the Disney universe and that is a rare thing.

Depth, by making her extremely dumb. With the whole, I will tell you how to save your daughter. *Insert evil laugh*

Its the biggest domestic bomb of the year WB also owns the second biggest domestic bomb this year in Jupiter Ascending.


From what I read abou tit, Jupiter Ascending did well WW. Domestic sales aren't everything.


Well it did better overseas but still didn't make enough money to make a profit.
