No Depp, no pirates.
I’m guessing they’ll revive it in 2 years with him retrieving his role. It’s too profitable for Disney to keep it dead, and it’s worthless without Depp

Dead Men Tell No Tales wasn’t even profitable

[Smarticle]

yas kill off depp's legacy

 

[Da Vinci]

Fad film franchise along with Transformers

Let's leave them in the past where they belong

[Gossip_Boy]

Weren’t they working on 2 different scripts? One with Margot as a lead and one without her. I wonder if that means that they’re moving forward with the second one or have scrapped the idea of rebooting Pirates altogether.

It grossed $794M WW on a $230M budget. How is that “not profitable”? ?

That $230M budget doesn’t include marketing costs, and the $794M gross doesn’t include the movie theater’s cut.

It seems no Depp, no pirates. 
 

But also sucks because Margot would’ve made an amazing film.

It made more than triple its huge budget, if that’s not profit I don’t think any movie is making money? Just say you’ve mistaken the domestic gross as the total gross without making fantasies sis.

That’s not how it works

movie theaters take half off the profit for them so let’s $400M for Disney 

Then the marketing costs are usually the same amount as the movie budget 

230 x 2 = 460

400 - 460 = negative 60M

Aka not profitable

we can add the digital sales I guess and maybe they broke even on the movie itself

they could make money in the Disneyland rides or whatever I guess

Honestly good. It’s not the 2000’s, who really wants another one? Tho she would have been hot as a pirate?

Not only the logic behind it is false but so is the math. If theaters took 50% that’s [$794M/2 = $397M], and if marketing is the same amount as production budget (230M) that’ll mean: [$397M - 230M = $167M]. Profit would be 167 Millions, plus digital sales as you mentioned.

Good for her, she dodged a bullet.

okay… but where are the actual figures? To know if they were not profitable. Plus…some of that feel just wrong altogether. A marketing budget the same size a production budget doesn’t make sense.

You forgot to take out the money spent to make the movie ?

marketing is usually the same amount as the budget. They are not combined and they are not counted as one 

230m on making the movie 

230m on promoting the movie 

230 + 230 = $460M spent on

making and promoting the movie 

also it’s called rounding up, it’s $397M I know but I was being generous and making it easier by rounding up

but yeah come for me lmao

Just a guess. While it wasn’t a big flop it also wasn’t a smash movie 

If it was a smash movie then the studio would had planned various sequels in the following the movie and not be radio Silent about until years later trying to revive it again

The only accurate thing about your calculation is the theater cut. I highly doubt that promotion would cost more than 100M, let alone 230M. Avengers endgame promotion costed 200M, that went on the huge number of cast who were promoting the movie for months around the world. 

[Bloodflowers.]

Wasn't this supposed to be all female cast without Depp?

 

Anyhow, they saw how Margot Robbie is not a box office draw, all her films bombed harder so they dodged a bullet

Promotion for a big budget movie like this is usually $100M.
