Despite all the controversy over Fury Road it was still a good movie. A comedy movie that isn't funny won't be good at the end of the day.

Not him, but it was.
It was the culmination of a vision that was nominated for best film.
Faggot.
>>72025335
>Fury Road it was still a good movie
And despite that a commercial failure
They shouldn't have spent $145M making this movie.
They should have tried to do it with $60-$80M and cut down on the special effects. They wound up looking shit anyway
Fury road was as anti-feminist as films come.
Woman makes plan
It goes wrong
Man fixes things
Woman wants to walk across dried oceans
Man says that's stupid and fixes things
WE DID IT, GUYS!
The difference between this and Spy and The Heat is that Ghostbusts is more than three times as expensive as those were.
Green Lantern was a fucking flop, and First Class was good.

>>72024941
Nope, it'll be lucky to reach 45 million. It's not even projected to make back it's cost of filming and advertising. lol. How are you this delusional?
>>72025613
And every woman that wasn't Furiosa was either worthless or horribly murdered. Even Queen Sarkeesian didn't think it was a feminist film; it had one strong female character who was more of a main character than the titular male character but that doesn't really make it a feminist fantasy.
>they have to use green lantern as proof it's not a bomb

>>72024941
Don't give a fuck. In one year's time this movie will be pretty much forgotten.
>>72025747
>145M budget
I'm talking about ghostbusters there
MMFR had a $150M budget, spent another $150M on P&A, and only took in $375M worldwide
The general forumula is that after production costs, P&A, taxes and INTL licensing (up to 50% can be lost here), and all other costs a movie needs to make triple it's budget to be considered a good ROI.
>$300M spent
>$375M brought in
That's a commercial failure
I loved the movie and I'm glad it's critically acclaimed but it didn't perform well monetarily
>>72024941
It's going to flop and China isn't going to save it.
With it's $144 million I don't see them doing well.
REMINDER BEFORE THEY CHANGE THIS!!
>As opening day approaches, Feig can’t help but think about the stakes of making a $150 million movie. “A movie like this has to at least get to like $500 million worldwide, and that’s probably low,” he says. “But the thing I care about most is the industry looking for an excuse to say, ‘See, a tentpole can’t be carried by female leads’” — three of whom are over 40. “I cashed in all my chips,” he says. “I had to use every chip to make this happen. And if this doesn’t work, I will probably have to go back to movie jail.”

Since when does a bunch of basement dwellers know better than the people behind it? If they have a target of 50 million domestic, then they have a target of 50 million domestic
Stop trying to use mental gymnastics to say that it isn't somehow their target and needs to make a lot more
>>72026026
Why did you Brexit?
Just kidding.
>>72026026
UK film critics are general more lenient than US ones
UK moviegoers are less vocal than US ones.
It's safe for studios to premier in Europe because they can keep the ratings high and use them as promotion to try and drum up excitement for the wide release. Then Americans get their hands on it and tear it to shreds
Picturing this is a mid-200m worldwide range movie. That seems about right for the confluence of factors here (whiny feminists turning out in force on one hand, but at the same time it's a tired remake with no positive word of mouth/repeat viewing).
>>72026084
50mil is the target they're hoping to get due to the tracking and circumstances. Doesn't mean it's a good number, especially considering the budget.
>Ghostbusters fell shy of the $4.6 million Thursday start of Pitch Perfect 2 last year, as well as the $5.5 million of 22 Jump Street in 2014.
>“A movie like this has to at least get to like $500 million worldwide, and that’s probably low,”
>>72026084
>I don't understand what the target means
You fucking think that Sony doesn't want a bigger target?
>we made enough!
Said no fucking studio ever! If they said "WE WANT TO MAKE 100 MILLION IN THE FIRST WEEKEND DOMESTIC!"
Their stock would drop when it fucking failed to reach half of that! The "target" is a realistic number the studio predicts based on tracking
>>72026020
>Never watched it
WHY
>>72026084
Tracking /= Target. Target is how much you want to make, tracking is what you are going to end up making. Very different things.
>>72026084
Their "$50M target" is for the opening weekend not the whole fucking run
>>72026084
PROJECTIONS ARE NOT TARGETS
THEIR TARGET IS 500MIL(LOW) FOR PROFITABILITY
IE BEFORE THE MOVIE TAKES HOME A SINGLE CENT, IT HAS TO GROSS 500 MILLION (CLOSER TO 600 MILLION)
DO YOU KNOW WHAT FLOP MEANS? BECAUSE YOURE LOOKING AT IT IN GHOSTBUSTERS(2016)

Just sad
I bet if you adjusted this for inflation it'd be even worse
>>72026428
>Did they say fuck it and go for the full nostalgia plot?
Feig threw a temper tantrum and insisted on a reboot because a sequel meant the girls didn't invent the gadgets themselves
>>72026233
I'm look at this and thought to myself "Did Amy Pascal just go to this site go down the line and say MIB and Ghostbusters were successes lets do a reboot of one and have a crossover with 21 Jump Street with the others."
Just think this could have been an MIB reboot.
>>72026084

They seem to know better than you.

>>72025613
It doesn't matter, what matters is that outside the movie, it was called feminist filth much like Ghosbuters 2016.
>>72026488
>Just think this could have been an MIB reboot.
Fuck that! I liked MiB3 so it could have been MiB4!
It made 624 million!
>>72026511
There was a story that they were changing it to Ghostbusters: Answer The Call as a means to please detractors and get them off their backs but after they got backup from the SJWs and numales they said fuck it and kept it Ghostbusters. They don't want there to be a way to differentiate the two so the masses will be oblivious this isn't a sequel or has zero connection when they pay for their ticket.
>>72025880
What is the other -145 for? Marketing?
>>72026566

Okay, guys, shitposting is fun but there are limits.
>>72025903

It is getting beat by life of pets lol
i want it to publicly bomb so they can't even say it made average profits. i can see attempts to spin it even if it makes 50 million.
>>72026693
Promotion and Advertising
Studios almost religiously spend just as much on P&A as they do on production
>>72026488
>Did Amy Pascal just go to this site go down the line and say MIB and Ghostbusters were successes
That's pretty much the story of how Fant4stic was made. Sony was going down a list of properties they weren't going to have for long and made a movie to keep the rights.
I think Ghostbusters was the same they kept it on the back burner because Harold Ramis had some kind of rights via a contract and once he die they were free to do what ever.
>>72026020
>what even was "feminist" about that movie anyway?
You should have learned by now that pissing babby men will call anything feminist at this point.
>>72026715
They're going to spin it regardless.
The Good Dinosaur flopped (due to poor marketing on Disney's end) and it was still spun when the DVD came around.
>>72026695
MiB3 was underrated! fite me!
>>72026784
Pretty much this.
They'll say they're really happy with the commercial performance and that'll be the end of it. People will argue over whether or not it was profitable enough for a sequel.
Then they'll announcea MIB reboot
>>72026062

>>72026715

I mean christ they are using the empire state building for a whole week. The fact that it looks like it already lost this Friday to life of pets is embarssing enough. If it fails to Saturday it will be a failure for never coming number 1 and shilling it to death. At best they need to hope to make a killing at SEVERAL other markets and I can't see many countries eating this shit up
>>72026020
Female character saves a bunch of wives. The wives are badasses, too. They meet up with more women who are older and also badass.
That's the extent of the feminism. It was a good movie.
Despite having female leads and a bunch of female characters, the best character was Nux. Unlike the rest, his story and character progression was the best.
Max was boring. Furiosa was boring.
>>72024941

I work at a movie theater and just got off work. Many box office sources are saying it's coming out on top. It was projected too anyway so it's not much of a shocker. Kinda sad really, was one of the calmest Friday shifts I have ever had.
50 MIL? YAAASSSSSS !!!!
guess how much your precious fucking Bill Murray version made on it's opening weekend... I just looked it up BARELY FUCKING 13 million.
UHHH Remind me again how female fronted blockbusters "don't make money"??? REMIND me again how "women aren't funny" REMIND me again how this film pales in comparison to the "original"?

Why are people pandering to these idiots? Their only mission in life is to ruin everything.
If there were 2 SJWs left on the planet they would fight each other to the death.

>>72027438
Want to go into that? based on average rate of inflation $13 dollars (1984) only equals $29.8 dollars (2016)
Ghostbusters (1984) $13mil -> Ghostbusters (2016) $50 mil
It's obvious which one is the big winner. In fact the new film made 20.2 MILLION more than the old male version.
>>72027315
While anons post is inarticulate what he's referring to is true. These type of people who get offended by everything or feel that everything has to change to fit their tastes and their temperaments by orchestrating outrage and using the guise of social justice are terrible manipulators.
It has very little to do with women existing in movies it has to do with them trying to force change for things they have no interest in then not supporting the industries they're effecting. They cry for change in comic books and they don't read them. Marvel is struggling to keep their sales strong. They complain about video games and don't play them. The game companies make these changes for nothing and waste their time and money. Same with movies they don't support a film unless it's like Ghostbusters where they have a dog in the fight. This new rise of the overly sensitive demanding control has to be brought to heel or they won't stop stirring shit then blaming "white men" or what ever else when they don't get their way.1

Annie Potts as Janine wasn't stupid. She may not have understood all the science and technology, but she wasn't goddamn brandead.

No one besides the most delusional think it will get 50 million which is a best case scenario. Sony is projecting around 40 mill that is what I am going with and will even assume it's a bit optimistic.

That just means I fucking lost a whole lot of money but I can at least recover those $10.00. It could still be better, maybe I recover $15.00, maybe less. Fuck you're stupid.

If Bay had stuck MORE with Spielberg's "a boy and his X" suggestion, the movie (and possibly all that came after it in the franchise) would have been great. But all the pointless, unfunny human characters and subplots, AMERICAFUCKYEAH military masturbation, overproduced CGI, and explosion porn just made it into cinematic junk food.

Whoa! It's going to make it's mediocre projection? You mean, it's still a failer, but less so because it met the lowest of Sony's expecation? Fantastic. Women, we did it again!. We bested those men.

>>72032150
Look at that emptiness behind them...
>>72026284
yeah, pretty much
they had a scene where he stumbles upon a bunch of hot women hosing themselves off, i don't see how that's feminist or sjw at all, it's the kind of shit they'd go nuts about honestly
just having strong females doesn't make it sjw, it's a matter of presentation and the idea behind it. it becomes shitty when it feels forced. like this abortion of a ghostbusters sequel.

Oh honey.

This is the thing that will probably fuck them the hardest. China is the reason that made producers to even consider stuff like Pacific Rim 2.

REEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>72024941
With as much marketing and paid shilling that's being put into this film, $50 million should be seen as an embarassment, especially when it suffers a huge drop the second week.
>it's in the same company as Green Lantern, The Great Gatsby, Independence Day: Resurgence, Pacific Rim and Warcraft
Wow, what confidence that inspires.
>>72033473
Not to mention, unlike those movies, it doesn't have China to save its ass.
Do people outside of USA even care about Ghostbusters?
>>72026020
literally that there was a strong woman as a main character. the other women were utterly useless and would have died if max and nux hadn't been there to save them.
max beat the shit out of all of them and would have left them for dead if he could have started the truck. the female gang dies within like 15 minutes, all to stock standard un-named characters. the strong woman would have literally died if max hadn't given her blood. they only make it out alive because nux sacrifices himself. it was actually a smart move by having a strong woman lead to mask all of the apparent "men saving the useless women" stuff that was actually happening in the movie.

the war never ends
>>72028587
no, we won this time. at worst, it was a draw.
sony is jap and japs have very high standards for success. businesses don't greenlight something to make "a little money," they want big hits. the original pitch must have either been very well played or whoever greenlit it was incompetent or just figured it was impossible to fuck up a sequel to such a beloved franchise.
by the looks of things, they're barely going to hit their target, if they even manage that. this shit's dead and sony knows not to greenlight something like this again.
they might find someone else who greenlights their stuff, but it won't be ghostbusters since sony owns the rights to that. sony's probably going to fire some folks for managing to bungle something that should have been easy money.
>>72033510
yes
>>72033510
China cared enough to ban it.
>>72026020
All men are evil, all women are brave, gentle and kind.
Especially the strong, independent indian woman that gets run over by a fat, rich, deformed white man. He was driving a limousine monster truck and came from behind like a coward.
That sort of stuff.
>>72027155
I would like to see an actual source of that.
>>72033692
>the strong, independent indian woman that gets run over by a fat, rich, deformed white man
are you talking about the member of the female gang after they fall off their bike?
>>72033778
Yeah, I think. Its been a while.
>>72026953
It will make a killing in China.
>>72033798
yeah, she's not indian at all. she's one of the most famous models in australia lmao.
>>72025675
Probably an early screening
>>72033891
Oh, OK. I kinda got the feeling they wanted to make them look as 'ethnic' as possible.
>>72033754
common sense and rumor are the dark source of it all
do you tempt creation mortal
Opening weekends are never a good indicator of a movies performance. Wait until next week and see if the figures drop sharply or not.
>yfw next week Star Trek AND Ice Age are opening
>>72034236
This is the thing. Even if they get the 50 million, they are fucked next week. It's gonna be a huge fall.
>>72034236
>Ice Age
Do kids even care about that series anymore?
>>72034314
A lot overseas. My local cinema was full with kids (It opened early). On the plus side, that means that Ghostbusters is going to do jack shit internationally
>>72032150
Still plenty of seats left for anyone interested and the bistro isn't too bad for over price theater food.
>>72025506
>nominated for best film
oh never mind your right
Yep, Sony's marketing worked.
We complained but Sony controlled the narrative because it commands the mainstream media.
If you want to start winning, you need to manipulate the mass media.
Hard to do because the media is controlled by the same companies that produce these movies.
And that is how a shit 4/10 comedy came to earn $50 million.
>>72034314
Yes. Even adults that liked the other movies are looking foward to watch this.
>>72034314
Now don't you worry
I won't put you down
I'm in no hurry, baby
To see you go to ground
Because it's true what they say

>guess how much your precious fucking Bill Murray version made on it's opening weekend... I just looked it up BARELY FUCKING 13 million.
$13 in 1980's money.
Back when you could buy a new car for under $8000 that wasn't some Asian shitpile.
>>72035311
Ghostbusters did $610,670,600 total if we adjust it for inflation.
