Well, Box Office Mojo has (estimated) first weekend income, available:
https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl3693445889/?ref_=bo_hm_RECENT_WEEKEND_WIDGET_1
So, at $25.4 million opening ($43.4 million worldwide) lets crunch the numbers and see how hard Warner Bros Discovery fucked up this time.
- The International ticket sales are 41.5% instead of The Flash's 61%, likely because of all the promotion was towards the Latinx/Latino community within the United States rather than towards a general audience. The Latinx/Latino community isn't as prevalent outside of the Americas.
- Assuming a 3x multiplier, the total domestic ticket sales will be $76.2 million, with $54.06 million internationally for a total of $130.26 million worldwide
- The Studio will get $65.13 million revenue, against a $220 million budget + marketing cost, resulting in a loss of $154.87 million. A Batgirl-style cancellation would have lost less money ($34.87 million saved)
- WBD could have bought 12,905,980 homeless people food for a day (assuming its $12 each) with the money they lost on this film.
Also I think its worth asking about this thread. Should we continue discussing the DCEU/DCU and Capeshit films here, or leave it until Ezra inevitably fucks up again? Looking at it in perspective, the damage has pretty much solidified - DC films were on a downward spiral after Justice League, and Ezra Miller's adventures in Bad CGI effectively killed off any remaining prestige or hype they once had.
