I want updates on how bad it did. Sony's silence says enough, but I think we all expected more damage control.

Like Brendan before him, I can no longer even conceptualise what Paul Feig looks like with any other haircut.

Make of it what you will.

Wow. So, unless that's adjusted for inflation, considering ticket prices, additional theaters opening, the increased importance of international theaters, etc, Cisbusters is a far bigger flop than anyone will admit.

...

I would say he should do more TV, but none of his shows have lasted very long

That's fucking impressive. That movie looks amazing.

His TV work is as terrible as his films.

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't he help give rise to the cancer that is Seth Rogen?

Yeah that's just production, how much money did Sony spent on promotion for cisbusters? I'm pretty sure it's over 100m

According to rumours and reliable sources, production,marketing and distribution come to about $290-300 million.

And on top of that you can subtract the 30% the cinemas take from the movie's income.

I believe that more of Judd Apatow's influence as a whole

Yeah that's a loss.

I guess bidding on getting leftists, commies, and socialists who want free shit to PAY to watch your movie was the bad move.

There is not enough rope.

I would be goading Sony to go onwards with this as this could be one hell of a final nail to the coffin and set a new record in the time a movie kills a company through stupid reasons. But I think Sausage Party's gonna be the one that delivers the final blow.

This would be strange for any summer movie but it's especially hilarious given how hard critics have shilled against this particular one and that it doesn't have an immediately recognizable title or theme song to help market it.

You think he's gonna get sent to "movie jail", whatever that means? He said he apparently bet it all on this film

Supposedly he's eyeing a project involving bollywood. Maybe he thinks that's the equivalent of "movie jail" escape.

Aliens was made for 18 million. Which is fucking mind boggling to me.

the other day someone here said pic related was made on $2M

I just cannot comprehend what the fuck the suits are doing with their money. Do they not want to make more? The only two things you could reasonably want in this situation is to make more money or a legitimately good movie and they are doing neither.

te be fair aliens and pretty much any character story in space is the equivalent of a bottle episode. wicked cheap to produce. the cgi is the biggest expense and those shots are totally disposable if you frame it as a character tale

you have to account for inflation when looking at these numbers. and yes i know there is still a significant difference even when inflation is accounted for.

With inflation, it's still just around 40 million.

If I recall correctly, there was another Ghostbusters movie in production but it had nothing to do with Cisbusters. It was supposed to be a team of 4 guys.

I forgot to add that it was also taking place in the original universe.

Oh, I thought they were trying to prematurely kickstart a cinematic universe. The GB3 the original director was developing supposedly was a more TFA-style soft reboot.

That would have been a lot smarter instead of doing what we have now.

That's a big drop in profits…4 him.
