Hollywood is sick!!!
How come twilight get sequels and this dont ....Money Money Money!!!!!
shareTwilight cost 37 million and made 390mil, even with marketing costs included it's still a smash hit. Also Twilight's audience enjoyed the film a lot.
Prince of Persia cost 200mil and that doesn't even include the marketing spend. The movie only made 336mil worldwide and studios at best get like 55% of the domestic gross and around 45% of the international gross. So the film was a flop. The reviews were poor and so were Twilight's of course but unlike Twilight Prince of Persia didn't satisfy enough of it's audience. There was absolutely no reason to make a sequel, it's not like the film was good.
I wonder if this film actually broke even at the end. It's total cost was about $300 million. It made $336 million WW of which the studio probably netted half ($168 million). I saw on another thread the profit/loss spreadsheet for several Sony films from the hack. It showed the theatrical and post theatrical net income for most films were about 50/50.
So if POP made another $160 million after it left the theaters it would have actually generated a slight profit so long as the budget and advertising spend was not actually understated.
You Never Go Full Retard
