Bosco685 Posted March 17, 2020 Author Share Posted March 17, 2020 Crazy how this is all of $865K from $200M worldwide, but with current cinema conditions it is a guess if it will even make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gatsby77 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Looks like it's seen its last $100,000 day (domestically). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted March 18, 2020 Author Share Posted March 18, 2020 This will probably land the film a little bump over the $200M mark. But where it goes from there is just unpredictable right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the blob Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 Is anyone actually going to movies? I think they did a lousy job of promoting it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why the assumption there was some massive marketing budget attached to this film doesn't take reality into consideration. Margot Robbie didn't start pushing this film until she cleared her Once Upon A Time In Hollywood and later Bombshell appearance schedules in January/February.

the blob Posted March 19, 2020 Share Posted March 19, 2020 It looked like a clusterphuck. But so did suicide squad, which was a bad movie too, but made money, so they figured it didn't matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted March 22, 2020 Author Share Posted March 22, 2020 Quote With a mediocre $2.09 million opening weekend in Japan, its final major territory, Birds of Prey (review) has, at the very least, passed $200 million in unadjusted global grosses. The film had a Fri-Sun opening on par with Shazam may only earn around $5-$7 million when the dust settles. And, no, this isn’t necessarily about coronavirus as Japan has yet to have a comparative outbreak. Audiences didn’t care about the Cathy Yan-directed and Christina Hodson-penned movie any more than they did here and abroad, alas. To be fair, many of the movies we think of as global blockbusters didn’t necessarily break out in Japan. None of the Hunger Games or Twilight Saga films made more than $7 million in Japan while Ghost in the Shell made just $9 million and Man of Steel made (inflation/deflation aside) $9 million in their respective theatrical releases. Oh, and Aquaman grossed $14.8 million while Joker grossed $46 million. The R-rated DC Films flick has earned 2.43x its $82 million budget. It’ll eventually break even when it comes to early VOD this Tuesday. It’s a disappointment, for sure, but it’s not a colossal box office disaster on the scale of Dolittle ($223 million on a $175 million budget) or Call of the Wild ($110 million on a $110 million budget). With theaters essentially closed in North America, the Margot Robbie/Ewan McGregor action comedy will end with around $84.2 million domestic from a $33.01 million domestic launch, a “perfectly okay” 2.55x multiplier but a clear disappointment nonetheless. Anyway, Birds of Prey has at least earned $200 million worldwide, which is pretty decent for an R-rated female-led action movie when compared to the likes of the Underworld films, Atomic Blonde ($100 million on a $30 million budget in 2017) and Red Sparrow ($151 million/$69 million). Hell, coronavirus aside, had the film played in China and played even as well as Tomb Raider ($78.4 million in 2018), we’d be looking at around $285 million worldwide, which would absolutely put the film in “yeah, it’s a hit” territory.
