This ABOMINATION needs about 300 Million to break even


90 Million budget + marketing so it needs about 300 million to break even

FLOP

$200 million. Double the budget is the general rule of thumb.....not triple.

You forget the marketing budget.

No....I don't. The double the budget rule of thumb has always carried the assumption of budget being accounted for in those numbers. This movie didn't have a promotion campaign like a Star Wars movie, or Titanic. Films like that usually have to gross about $2.50 for every dollar spent on budget. This isn't one of those movies.

LOL even if it needed 200 million, it won't make as much, forget it.

at 200 Million they don't even break even yet...The marketing budget for this was HUGE!! About the same as the budget. Yet it still under-performed.

I'm almost sure you're a stupid studio plant.....Funny stuff.
