How is the gunman a bigger bomb than blackhat? Or rock the kashbah for that matter.

Blackhat cost 70 million and made 19. Gunman cost 40 million and made 10.

Blackhat cost 70 million and made 19. Gunman cost 40 million and made 10.

10/40 is a quarter of the budget and 19/70 is just a tad more than a quarter. Or something.

Seems a silly way to do things though.

Blackhat lost more money when its said and done,despite the percentages.

 

[ℒℴѵℯJay ELECTUA]

Hollywood what a darn shame.

 

[ProfessionallyTrill]

Hot Tub Time Machine 2 was funny as hell tho

 

[StraxStrax]

I've heard of 2 movies in the top 10

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

Hot Tub Time Machine 2 was funny as hell tho

I doubt that's possible.

 

[MikelArteta]

All these movies were ass

 

[Cabbage Patch]

Allegedly.... Rock the Kasbah was a Jew Hollywood American whitewash of what should have been an Afghani feminist triumph over oppression.

Remember Mississippi Burning? They did that girl worse. Allegedly.

 

[THE 101]

Bill Murray has fallen off HEAVY

He used to pick his projects wisely. He's made a lot of trash recently.

 

[Danie84]

That's what Hollyweird gets for the lack of variety and same dry formulaic

Box office success is almost always measured in the ratio of box office to budget, not box office minus the budget. It goes back to the 'a movie has to gross twice its budget at the box office to break even' argument.

Right but...


if blackhat after the theatres took their cut grossed 10 million for the studio,that means it lost at least 60 million for the studio

If gunman brought back 5-6 million to the studio it lost 35 million for the studio.


Blackhats the bigger bomb.


I mean,even if rock the kasbah brough the studio 0 dollars,the budget is only 15 million so they would only lose 15 million.



The rest is just whatever.


I mean technically tomorrowland probably lost the studio at least 80 million after its all said and done.


I get it,its just a bizzare way to look at it.
