discussion Joker: FAD to lose $150-200M, one of the biggest box office bombs ever

[jjmed59]

monsters on twitter trying to make the 121m number seem good are so obviously not aware as to how box office success works 

 

for comparison the original did 250m. for further comparison, the little mermaid which many here considered an underperformance did 163m in its global opening.

I watched it last niguy 

 

it's not bad, bad, Gaga was EXQUISITÉ 

 

it just feels very linear yet jumpy, like it was originally 4 hours and then randomly took chops off to make it shorter 

 

like things happens but the story doesn't move forward and when its finally getting somewhere it just, ends?

they are also screaming "#1 movie in a world" like that's something to brag about when the movie is a huge flop and there was no other movie challenging it for first place.

So Warner was indeed overestimating it...

[Gaia]

The next 6 shows at my theater (in a big city) has ZERO TICKETS sold  Every single seat is showing available. I absolutely cannot.

 

Only IMAX has seats sold and it's like 7 out of 200 for the early and 8 out of 200 for the later. 
 

this is going to be a disastrous BO run

I saw one of them tweet "It's the #1 movie in the world this week AND made $121M on opening weekend so there's NO WAY that it won't be turning a MASSIVE profit."

Lower than The Marvels and freaking Morbius 

 

 

Lower than Deadpool & Wolverine THURSDAY PREVIEWS 

[Nefertiti0]

The opening for Warner Bros' Joker: Folie a Deux was even lower at $37.8M this weekend versus the $40M that the studio reported yesterday morning. Sunday came in at $6.2M, -45% off Saturday's $11.3M. The movie cost $190M+ before P&A.

Yeah, I was predicting 37-38 for the actuals.  I'm sure the international numbers are slightly inflated too

 

70%+ drop next weekend for sure. Could potentially miss 70 million total dom.

This not even meeting WB's already low expectationsThey probably wanted to avoid the "opening below Morbius" headlines but the clown came back to bite.

 

Very curious to see the second week drop now.

Even a bat left the theater!

A catastrophe of catastrophic proportions

The Eras Tour Opening Day ($37.67M). Like the fact Joker 2 made less than The Eras Tour first day box office is horrific. The Monsters spin zone is baddd lmaoo.

These dumbasses think that if a movie outgrosses it's budget, its profitable.
