| Chris Hu said: Its too early to call it a flop since it only been in theaters for less then a week. Also its budget is $40 million which isn't exactly big. Big budget movies are movies that cost close to $100 million or more to make. That Netflix deal probably made the movie profitable already my guess is that the spend more then $40 million for the streaming rights for the movie. |
It finished 4th and brought in $11 million domestically. It'll be lucky to make $40 million and in general movies need to make 2x production budget to break even.
Yes, I agree and part of my point is the streaming deal is justified as likely made more money that way than releasing it traditionally in cinemas. The tragedy (yes, hyperbolic) is such a beautiful movie is rare one I think should be seen on a massive screen.
