Hollywood accounting (where it's always a loser) and special cases aside, rule of thumb is Domestic Gross > Production Budget = Profit. {nm}

Per DL, 'Man of Steel' Speeds to $400M Worldwide: Superman Still #1 Box Office Internationally. :-) {nm} KalElFan Jun 23, 14:09

Needs to make around $450m to make its budget back, and around $700m to cover P&A? {nm} numbersix_99 Jun 24, 01:02

Hollywood accounting (where it's always a loser) and special cases aside, rule of thumb is Domestic Gross > Production Budget = Profit. {nm} KalElFan Jun 24, 06:36

Per BOM, Production Budget was $225M, Domestic already $210M. Cume headed for $300M+, same overseas, + $170M promo money... {nm} KalElFan Jun 24, 06:41

... already banked. So $750M+, + merchandising, DVD/Blu-Ray, later windows, editions, etc. for 95-125 years. "What do you think?" :-) {nm} KalElFan Jun 24, 06:43

Cume no longer headed for $300M mjrisgod Jun 24, 08:13

The drops of better mega-opener comparatives dip to just over 50% third w/e, then below that to 40-ish and lower... {nm} KalElFan Jun 24, 11:18

With July 4 pumping the numbers up a bit, it should break $300M, and more likely make $320M than your $280M IMO. We'll see. {nm} KalElFan Jun 24, 11:20

If the Director's 3-hr cut already exists as rumored and if Warners were to re-release with that in a few months, much more. :-) {nm} KalElFan Jun 24, 11:22

What comps are you thinking of? Everyone else is comparing to Dark Knight Rises, but that film is not comparable to this one at all. mjrisgod Jun 24, 11:44

The Potter, Wolverine and X-Men with worse second w/e drops. Latter in early June so SUPR2 has July 4 advantage coming up. We'll see. {nm} KalElFan Jun 24, 16:46
