With a drop of nearly 73%, "The Flash" has not broken $300 million so far, and I feel that DC will be busy for nothing this year!
DC's "The Flash", which has a good reputation this year, seems to be on the box office after all!
This year's Hollywood blockbusters are not few, many are basically introduced, so for the quality of these works, the mainland fans and audiences believe that they still have their own judgments, and for the previous DC's "The Flash" movie, although it was affected by the actor incident before its release, it was still good in terms of the quality of the movie itself.
At least it can be called DC's better works in recent years.
But although most of the word-of-mouth is in the positive direction, the box office of "The Flash" seems to have finally pulled its crotch, and since the box office in the first weekend of release, the local overseas box office of "The Flash" can be said to have plummeted in all directions, down nearly 73%.
At present, the film's global box office barely reached 210.9 million US dollars (possibly joining Warner's list of the most loss-making works in recent years)...
Although the film is still in the release stage, this box office figure makes it difficult for "The Flash" to break through the $300 million level, not to mention Warner's expected $440 million figure for the movie.
From the current point of view, the box office of "The Flash" has almost hit the street, compared with the cost of more than 200 million US dollars, the difficulty of returning the cost refers to the current rhythm, almost "hell" level.
Speaking of which, I have to "feel sorry" for DC!
The tragic level of the box office of "Black Adam" released last year should still have some impressions of many fans (393 million US dollars), and Dwayne Johnson is even "hard-mouthed" saying that the movie is making money and returning money, but the financial report given by DC is also a minute slap in the face, with a reported loss of 50 million ~ 100 million US dollars.
And the "Shazam 2" released earlier this year and the box office index of "The Flash" this time are basically all cool, although the follow-up DC and "Aquaman 2" and the new work "Blue Beetle" on the basis, and even we say that even if these 2 works can achieve excellent results, according to the publicity and production costs of up to $1.1 billion spent by DC on these 4 movies this year, a little inattention can say that DC this year is basically -
White dried ~
Here we refer to IMDb's film investment income data:
(1) The production cost of "Black Adam" was 260 million US dollars, DC's original profit target was 520 million US dollars, the actual global total box office revenue was only 390 million + US dollars, and the profit target loss reached 24%;
(2) The production cost of "Shazam 2" was 125 million US dollars, and DC set a profit target of 250 million US dollars at that time, but the actual global total revenue was only 133 million + US dollars, and the profit target loss ratio reached 46%;
(3) "The Flash" cost $220 million to produce, and Warner DC set a box office profit target of $440 million for the film, and if it reaches $770 million, there will be a sequel to "The Flash 2".
Although the film is still being released, the box office is only about 210 million US dollars, and the profit target set before is not that it is impossible to achieve, but the difficulty is like I said earlier, it belongs to the "hell" level.
Therefore, DC's last three works, word of mouth aside, the box office figures that can most directly indicate the degree of fan buying, are actually not very ideal, and some extranet reports on the box office revenue evaluation of DC's nearly 3 works, but also directly use the "three strikeouts" conclusive word.
It can be seen that the degree of disapproval from the outside world is very high.
For the follow-up DC "Blue Beetle" and "Aquaman 2" works, the former cost $120 million, the latter is $205 million, in order to achieve considerable profits, based on the "fatigue" of today's film market for super-British IP movies, I can only say that it is not small.
After all, the former belongs to the "newcomer" in the DC Cinematic Universe, compared with the works of the Justice League member sequence has a certain fan base, "Blue Beetle" is close to 0 base start, and the latter "Aquaman 2" because of the previous "Sea Queen Meera" actor Amber Heard on the influence of [Depp case], many fans are also quite resistant to her, and the corresponding "Aquaman 2" corresponds to similar resistance.
Not to mention, some fans can no longer accept Amber Heard appearing in the movie, so although "Aquaman 1" has good results, now "Aquaman 2" is also a little embarrassing based on the influence of public opinion.
