DC Studios THREAD - GunnVerse Begins - Chapter ONE: Gods & Monsters

[laker4lifeman]

WB is ran by idiots.

I believe it si $250m including marketing, according to LA Times the net production budget is $175m.

Still, with a $175 million net production budget – far higher than the modest $58 million “Deadpool” cost – Ayer did have to make certain concessions to the bottom line.

Just waiting for them now to screw up the casting of my favorite, Shazam

Kevin Tsujihara is an advertisting/businessman who had zero film production experience prior to being the chairman of Warner Brothers so that might help explain the faults in this studio's apparent logic

 

[danger style]

How do you figure? Triple the budget just to make even? No way 600 mil went on marketing

Makes sense. Studios only take about 50% of the gross and a even smaller percentage from international grosses

Global P&A is pretty much just marketing but look at the other cost that 99% of the population is unaware of.

- This is from BvS

I bet it does

you think it makes 800 mill?

bvs barely made it there and its batman and superman

bad reviews really throw off the casual viewer

AND wonder woman..

world of mouth is what kills films.. if critics kill it, it might take a couple mill off of the opening weekend or two.. but if it's good then people will talk and it will have the legs to carry

I don't know why they spend so much money on advertising. Most people know when these films are coming out. BvS I felt like was advertised for months on TV. :x

Imagine BVS had to depend on word of mouth and reviews. That's why you pump money into ads

Because fanboys don't make up the majority of box office revenue. It's the casuals you need.

This joint gonna turn out to be a Water World/Gigli hybrid.

Just a few months ago people here were wondering why they have not heard anything about Suicide Squad and it's coming out in a few months even though it was already the most talked about film on twitter at the time.

I mean just imagine that, marketing budget is already that high and many is still thought the film had no advertising or marketing.

Don't give people too much credit. Hell many here on this thread thought the movie was coming out last week

Those started around the NFL playoffs and people were trashing them. The ads did help with Suicide Squad though.

Yikes

Can they let Feige take over DC?

wb should just sell dc to disney

Then we could get the Avengers vs Justice League film

Or they could make Amalgam movies like Dark Claw.

 

[...So]

[Fresh Like Will]

If that's true, that sucks. Why is DC adding "fun"? Training Day, End of Watch, and Fury didn't need to add "fun" to be great films.

Just because it's a comic book movie doesn't mean it needs to be goofy. Should of stuck to Ayer's vision instead of buckling to these chuckleheads that don't even like DC anyway.

 

[Grine]

I know it's problems when you start to see reports of excuses to why the film reviews are bad. 

Da hell 

And, I love DC.

Well all I know Image wouldn't dare be having these kind of issues 

 

[Fresh Like Will]

Speaking of Image. Todd McFarlane needs to stop taking his sweet time with this Spawn reboot.
