Bosco685 Posted August 24, 2014 Author Share Posted August 24, 2014 Interesting grouping of movies so far, competing alongside comic book productions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted August 27, 2014 Author Share Posted August 27, 2014 Look at little Marvel go. Only 2 out of 9 movies failed to cross the 3X revenue ratio bar at the end of their box office run. And the 10th is well on its way to achieving 4X once the Asian region box office hits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComicConnoisseur Posted August 27, 2014 Share Posted August 27, 2014 I suspect that Guardians of the Galaxy will be extremely profitable from a merchandising standpoint. I was just checking out action figures sales over at Amazon and GOTG seems to be doing very well with Rocket Raccoon being GOTG`s top seller. Also seems like Transformers and Minecraft are the overall hottest sellers in action figures over at Amazon. Minecraft seems to be building a big following like Walking Dead has. It looks like GOTG is now following a similar path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only 2 out of 9 movies failed to cross the 3X revenue ratio bar at the end of their box office run. And the 10th is well on its way to achieving 4X once the Asian region box office hits. I found something interesting looking at this years 2014 Domestic chart, in that none of these 2014 blockbusters have come close to last years blockbusters domestically. In 2013 the results are Iron Man 3 = $409,013,994 Man of Steel = $291,045,518 Edited August 30, 2014 by ComicConnoisseur 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(thumbs u MOS at $291,045,518 means Superman still has his fastball and is still very popular. GOTG an upstart that nobody really heard about that beat the likes of Spider-Man, Thor and X-Men at box office. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bosco685 Posted August 30, 2014 Author Share Posted August 30, 2014 Actually, the biggest Revenue Ratio winner this year wasn't Transformers 4, X-Men: DoFP, or even Cap 2. And even GotG may have a difficult time hitting this number. The Lego Movie So far, due to the low production cost and strong box office response, this movie has had the highest Revenue Ratio yet out of all the movies so far.

Bosco685 Posted September 22, 2014 Author Share Posted September 22, 2014 Now those are some interesting results. X-Men: DoFP and Guardians both have the same Revenue Ratio. Guardians is definitely surging ahead at the box office. Wow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would put Guardians ahead because they rule in merchandising, plus Marvel doesn`t get any profits from the X-Men movie because of that bad deal with Fox. 1950's war comics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosco685 Posted October 6, 2014 Author Share Posted October 6, 2014 By end of week, China will deliver Guardians to the local box office. So that should have some massive impact. But overall, the international market has really helped some of these movies achieve profitability. Even 'Hercules' may hit that magic 2.5X Revenue Ratio target.

Bosco685 Posted October 17, 2014 Author Share Posted October 17, 2014 Guardians' China invasion progresses strongly, though it has a ways to go in order to be the biggest hit of the year. The only two movies on this list not to exceed the 2.5 Revenue Ratio barrier to assumed profitability are Amazing Spider-Man 2 and Hercules. But with Hercules, it seems to slowly keep going up.

If you used the wikipedia listed budget figure (200M) for ASM2 like you do for every other film, ASM2's revenue ratio would exceed your magic number. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_most_expensive_films take that...Mr "Box Office Score Card Overlord"...

Unfortunately, posting $200 MM would not be accurate. A few of us had looked into this in the ASM2 thread, and found out the number is actually much higher to the point Sony won't reveal the final number. Boxofficemojo doesn't even have a budget listed because of this, and Boxoffice.com estimated it is more around $330 MM. Signed, BOSCO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
