Streaming is part of the problem. they created their own monster.

Good ole fashioned greed.
Need to adjust expectations, prices, salaries (esp execs), etc.
The jig is up.

the saving grace is that both were filmed back to back so hopefully the Dead Reckoning part 2 can help put it in the blackMI:7 made 500 million worldwide. If that makes them lose money it's because they went full retard with how much the movie cost.
How the fukk were they expecting to make at least 700M on a summer against Barbie and a huge Nolan film running at the same time? And do it with a movie that has "Part 1" in the title
Hollywood execs are fukking useless.
edit: that was kinda crazy
WB just announced that Barbie is coming to streaming September 5th.
The shyt just made $34M in its 4th weekend and it'll be available in 2 weeks? That's insane. Back in the day, they would've let that shyt ride, but now they rush it to streaming so they don't have to split with movie theaters and bump up subscribers.
Part two's not done filmingthe saving grace is that both were filmed back to back so hopefully the Dead Reckoning part 2 can help put it in the black

Absolutely no reason Indy should have been a 300mil budget film. It's utter insanity and looks more and more like financial fukkery. You take a loss at the box office and then make the money up on the backend via licensing/streaming for the next x years in order to avoid paying certain people.
MI:Fallout came out in 2018 and made $800M.
This one they fukked up because Barbenheimer was released the following weekend and they gave up a bunch of IMAX screens for Oppenheimer.

I thought MI7 was going to do numbers. Fallout did big numbers and Tom fresh off Top Gun. I thought it was a surefire hit actually. I think we're getting a little tired of it. The stunts got big to the point of just fantasy. Fallout and MI3 had the best balance. I kind of wish they go back to MI1 vibe. A little more grassroots.
