So twice the costs you thought and half the revenue. And then the return is always like 40% or so of the total box office number. So the budget is nearly double what you initially thought it was. They almost certainly spent nearly that much just on marketing and releasing costs. The production budget is just half of it. Tomb Raider didn't cost $94 million to make (I saw multiple reports of $106M production budget, btw, the studios always try to make the public budget number smaller).

You have to relearn how you look at movie financials. The Hobbit 3 "cost" $300M, made just shy of 1 billion at the box office, and the total studio profit, even with home video and everything, was about $100M. Not just some guy on reddit possibly talking out of his ass. And they are experts in their field, and they have sources, etc. Here you can see Deadline breaking down the profit. If it was a $35 million character driven action thriller that Ben Wheatley had total control over and was way less of a "save the world" movie.I would bet my life savings that it will turn a profit.Ī good example I like to use is the 3rd Hobbit movie. That's why it'll have to be a hugely stripped down movie in order to make any money. I have no idea why they'd try again, I can't imagine this would do better than the first one, which got a tepid response. But she can't work money miracles, marketing costs money. I think Sue Kroll is one of the smartest people in Hollywood. Maybe $50M domestic, but it's much more than that. You can't put a movie out worldwide for that amount. I've never seen a movie that was secretly under the public budget.Īnd 0% chance it was a $50M marketing spend. Whatever budget they try to put out there, it's higher. I feel like I've already addressed all these points.Ĭhina money doesn't matter, it only made $2M there. and using the most generous numbers possible. So they spent more than $165M, and got $118M back, and that's without considering taxes, backend deals, etc. I would guess more, but I'll be generous again.

The absolute least I think they could have spent on marketing would be $65M. So roughly a $118M return, could be more or less, but it's in that ballpark.

China has to have it's own breakdown, since it's a flat 25% split (no Chinese company helped produce, so it was 25% for sure). International $274M, usually a 30-40% split, can vary wildly. But I'll round up and say they got a $30M domestic return. Adjusting to the 2018 numbers, but my point still stands because the 2018 numbers are actually less profitable than the 2001 ones, which weren't profitable.ĭomestic usually around a 50% split, sometimes more sometimes less, depends on a lot of factors. Edit: I originally used the 2001 Tomb Raider's box office, because fucking Box Office Mojo destroyed their website and made it so confusing.
