Its been almost one week since WW release and already the film has made nearly $300 million. If that's not impressive I don't know what is.Moogabunga wrote: ↑Wed Apr 07, 2021 6:08 am This doesn't really look all that impressive for GvK...

If I remember correctly, I think someone from Forbes wrote today that a $500M theatrical run is in play as it were.

Yeah the assumption used to reach that number is unfounded, at least according to BOT

I wonder where it stands currently? Boxofficemojo hasn't updated it in a while.

Re: Godzilla vs Kong: the Box Office Thread - Predictions, Tracking, etc
Given how the film has been doing its certainly at least over $300 million at this point. Needs $330 million to break even.yogi bareass wrote: ↑Thu Apr 08, 2021 4:42 am I wonder where it stands currently? Boxofficemojo hasn't updated it in a while.

Hmmmmmmm
So, assuming the film cost 200 million to make and WB covered half in the deal then that's 100 million in cost
Under the 2.5 rules, it made bank at 250 million
To need 300 M, WB would have had to only pony up 50M

Re: Godzilla vs Kong: the Box Office Thread - Predictions, Tracking, etc
The thing to note, there's no real agreement as to what the budget is since neither Legendary nor Warner Brothers have revealed that (as studios rarely ever reveal it). As Wikipedia puts it:
The Numbers reported the production budget to be $155 million. In December 2020, Variety reported the budget to be $160 million (and doubled-down on that this month), while TheWrap reported the budget to be $165 million. In January 2021, both The Hollywood Reporter and Deadline Hollywood stated the budget to be $200 million. In February 2021, Comingsoon.net also noted the film's budget to be $200 million. Googling, I see USA Today reported the budget to be $160 Million, while Forbes reported it to be $165 Million. The New York Times reported in December that the budget is $155 Million.
So the "break even" point is anywhere between $310 Million and $400 Million and the "clear success" point anywhere between $387 Million and $450 Million. But with the matter of whatever deal Legendary and Warner Brothers struck for the dual theatrical/streaming release plus the complete mystery of how to convert however its doing on HBO Max into data we can understand relative to the box office returns...it's basically impossible at this point to work out anything. It's basically "half box office plus secret number on top of that versus unconfirmed amount spent on budget".
Warner Brothers and Legendary seem very happy with the movie's response and performance so far in both theaters and streaming, so that's probably the only thing we really need to know.

So Mortal Kombat has just released in some parts of Asia notably Malaysia.
Don't think this will affect Godzilla vs. Kong's current run in theaters and HBOMax but figured I bring this up.

They’ll probably post the numbers in a day or two; I haven’t seen any updates since $300M.

Huh, still hasn't updated whether the movie has made over $300 million at this point. Any word when it might?
Most likely it did though.

Okay, consequently, my father and mother in NY (both vaccinated) have had difficulty finding tickets at good times, many of the shows are sold out.
Even if somehow it drops down, it won’t matter, it’s already been a hit.
