Power Rangers Marketing Has Exploded!! Does The Hsx Crowd Still Think it is Gonna Bomb in the High 30's? {nm} gokira Mar 03, 08:16

Just stop. {nm} Dbot1800 Mar 03, 08:17

Not looking forward to the movie but looking forward to these posts 5X a day. {nm} diamondman56 Mar 03, 08:22

Low 40's is a super massive breakout while high 30's is a bomb? You're the best. {nm} ßionicℳoron™ Mar 03, 08:33

Considering the budget is $120m, yeah that's a bomb. ceregon Mar 03, 08:48

That sounds like more than the budget of every single Power Rangers television show combined. {nm} diamondman56 Mar 03, 08:53

Is that sarcasm? a $39M opening could get you to $120M domestic, which would not be a bomb. {nm} Antibody Mar 03, 08:54

Especially considering it's a franchise with a good bit of international popularity {nm} ßionicℳoron™ Mar 03, 08:57

I had read in the past a movie needs to make 2x its budget to break even. Still, this is a movie made for the overseas market than domestic. ~JPV~ Mar 03, 09:00

Yes, in total, a film needs to make at least 2.5x budget worldwide to be profitable in theatrical. {nm} notfabio Mar 03, 09:04

Lionsgate usually manages its risk by taking on partners/selling off rights. That backfired for them on La La Land, but usually works out. {nm} notfabio Mar 03, 09:07

Probably not as true now as it was a few years ago, but they used to be happy with any wide theatrical opening over $10 million. {nm} notfabio Mar 03, 09:15

In this case, it's mainly Saban Films although Lionsgate are giving it a wider theatrical rather than focusing on VOD. diamondman56 Mar 03, 09:16

you've mixed up Saban Films and Saban Entertainment. While both are owned by Haim, Saban Entertainment is behind Power Rangers. {nm} Moviesnob Mar 03, 09:40

You're forgetting the home (VOD, Blu-ray, Cable) and other ancillary streams in addition to theatrical. {nm} Antibody Mar 03, 09:07

True, but like I said, more and more studios are relying on the international market to make their money. ~JPV~ Mar 03, 09:14

not sarcasm...does anyone think this will have a good multiplier? {nm} ceregon Mar 03, 09:24

The first MMPR in 1995 had a mutiplier of 38.2/13.1 = 2.91 {nm} Antibody Mar 03, 09:40

Haven't multipliers shrunk over the last 20 years though {nm} ceregon Mar 03, 09:41

Significantly {nm} ßionicℳoron™ Mar 03, 09:45

2014's TMNT is also 191.2/65.5 = 2.92 {nm} Antibody Mar 03, 09:46

With the amount of posting this turkey does on the boards why doesn't he just sell his MMPR stock and day trade? {nm} Nigel_Ray Mar 03, 08:52

I don't know why you guys continue to feed Mike255 2.0. Just ignore him {nm} bennyg1985 Mar 03, 09:39
