Really? That can't be right, since BoxOfficeMojo is not doing a good job on keeping its International Gross 411 0n TPatF up to date.zackiellovedisney wrote:Even though I really want to agree with you the movie has made 150 million worldwide.DisneyJedi wrote:This probably won't mean much, but a little bird told me that the movie's now made $200 million worldwide.
The film has not made a profit yet, Disney isn't getting all of that $200 million. When it gets above $315 million, then it will likely make a profit.KubrickFan wrote:Yeah, but with probably another 50 or so million dollars spent on marketing (remember, they advertised it a year in advance) and some other costs as well, it did make a profit, just not a very big one. And for a movie that's hailed as the return of 2d animation, it also isn't very much.
I know movies have to make a lot of money to turn it into a profit, but 315 million seems a bit much for a movie that only cost 100 million. Was the budget higher than that?Flanger-Hanger wrote: The film has not made a profit yet, Disney isn't getting all of that $200 million.

I think Flanger-Hanger is true in saying that the movie still hasn't made a profit yet, but I don't think it would need $315 million to make a profit. The $105 million that everyone talks about is just how much it cost Disney to make. That doesn't include marketing. I'm not saying Disney is Dreamworks, but marketing for Dreamworks, per movie, averages out around to be $100-150 million. And although Princess and the Frog didn't get the best marketing out there, it had it nonetheless, and I think it did cost them enough for us to say that PatF still hasn't made a profit...that's through ticket sales. Obviously that doesn't include toy profit, future DVD/Bluray profit, etc. But I think big companies like Disney don't care about that kind of stuff. They will label a movie a flop/success according to its theatrical run, and even more specifically, its domestic theatrical run.KubrickFan wrote:I know movies have to make a lot of money to turn it into a profit, but 315 million seems a bit much for a movie that only cost 100 million.

The budget was $105 million, and using the industry standard "3 times" rule, you get $315. This is done to take into account the cut of the revenue theatre owners get and the marketing budget used by the distributor (Disney).KubrickFan wrote:I know movies have to make a lot of money to turn it into a profit, but 315 million seems a bit much for a movie that only cost 100 million.

So, apparently, the producers of this year's Oscar show have decided that the Best Original Song nominees won't be performed at this year's ceremony:

This was my main reason for even watching the oscars! Oh, okay. I thought it was closer to 2.5 times the budget, or something close to that.

.How sweet. A sleep-inducing projector like the kind little kids have to help them to go to sleep at night! At least, with live singers people would be kept alert instead of dozing off.Instead of the Academy Awards' long-held tradition of staged musical performances of the five nominated songs, the music from those songs will be interspersed with footage from each movie to provide more context.
WTF?! I want Anika Noni Rose perform Almost There and/or Down In New Orleans, damn it!!SillySymphony wrote:So, apparently, the producers of this year's Oscar show have decided that the Best Original Song nominees won't be performed at this year's ceremony:

They of course have to make room for their 10 Best Pics Nominees. Still, lame excuse.
