So do we officially call Superman a box office bomb?

BlackManta:
It broke even.

Whoever wrote the article doesn't understand Hollywood maths.

The most simplified formula is budget x 2.5

Superman's budget is 225m

225m x 2.5 = 562m

That's the break even point

Some people said it'll make $1b.

Damn, just found out I watched 62 films last year.... I always thought it was 67 — I guess it was for the previous year.

I'm now at 59 films so far and I still have three solid months to go. Despite heavily slacking last month.
I'd easily smash my tally in previous years.

I most likely won't hit my lofty target of 100 films a year. But at least I might get very close to it. Hopefully I do at least 25 films more— to round out at 85+ within the year.
Hopefully, I chalk off more off my niche watchlists. 🤞🏽

Those people were delusional.

They also deluded themselves into thinking Superman was a box office success. In reality it wasn't.

It being sold as a success is good for the brand tho..

The 2.5 multiplier is used when we don't know the advertising cost.
Cinemas take 50% of movie earnings and a base 0.5 or 50% of a movie's production budget is used as it's advertising costs...that's where the 2.5x multiplier comes in...

Now that the advertising cost and other costs have been revealed, then you can't just apply a base 2.5x multiplier.

You just don't want to admit the sad reality that Superman 2025 was a box office bomb.

Don't worry, it will still make money from streaming to cover it's loses

WHAT IS GOING ON WITH NKIRI. HELP!

Emekus92:
Now it’s Nkiri dot ink

pu7pl3:
Never even heard of the nigga

abduleez1:
The actors might be retired. But I feel they'd find a way to bring or inspire more stories about them. They can't just retire the highest grossing horror franchise of all time just like that.

You don't even know the person who produced your favourite movie.

How do you track your movies?

abduleez1:
Lmfao...

I kinda missed this... 😂😂😅

TemporaryHansel:
And James Gunn had to whip up sentiment, making many Latinos, and leftis to go see the movie, if not I'm sure it would've peaked at 450m.
