The Cage Powered Ghost Rider: SoV Box Office poll! - Page 5

Pfeiffer-Pfan · 03-12-2012, 06:16 AM

So a profitable endeavour on the surface... but clearly nothing Sony wants to shout about. I was thinking it might break even domestically but it looks like its US run is pretty much done.

Oh well...

Domestically I cant see it going on much longer now, maybe another $2-3 million max, we'll see what happens with the international numbers.

Ok Hype, guess you can go ahead and close the Ghost Rider forums now. I think we all get it. Neveldine/taylor delivered the final death blow to the Ghost Rider franchise. The latest GR comics suck and there is generally NOTHING redeeming about GR at this point.

Im gonna try to get past all the tumble weed and find my way out

Drz · 03-18-2012, 03:35 PM

The Venom story featuring Ghost Rider was kick-ass.

Slow the roll.

No one disputes the movie could've done better but it is far from a disaster...at least financially.
It'll hit $50m in a few days, yes shy it's production budget and not by much, but we need to see where this lands worldwide.
Sony may yet decide on more GR.

These forums need not yet be closed. News on it's future at Sony will forthcoming and for that we should keep these to discuss such matters.

Snikt · 03-19-2012, 04:32 PM

And apparently, according to N/T Twitter account, the movie is closing on on $150 million WW. And it's yet to open on Uganda.

Snikt · 03-20-2012, 12:21 PM

Well...the box office numbers have been updated. It's up to $122 million worldwide. So it's more than doubled it's $57 million production budget. And I believe it still hasn't opened in a few countries.

Pfeiffer-Pfan · 03-20-2012, 12:28 PM

Despite all this... I don't think Sony will want to suddenly leap into a third movie.

-It wasn't capable of breaking even domestically
-It's foreign run isn't as impressive as many would like to think, but it will keep it out of the red considerably if future territories goes well.
-It hasn't done much to strenghen the brand of the character... if anything its tarnished it.

DVD/Blu-ray may as usual save the day, but this entire movie in every aspect is far from a success.

i think they will reboot it down the road in 5 yrs.

CaptainCraig · 03-23-2012, 03:01 PM

With Thursday's daily totals it crossed the $50m domestic. About a week-10days longer than I had initially thought it would do it but it did it.

I'm curious to see what Sony does with this now.
It's WW numbers keep this in the black, especially since it's not quite done.
Another couple million domestic at least. Probably be around $130m WW.

AVEITWITHJAMON · 03-26-2012, 07:39 AM

^I just cant see them wanting to continue it, the franchise hasnt made them a massive profit so they must be thinking is it really worth it?

The Morningstar · 04-01-2012, 11:58 AM

Man I knew Cage was crazy, but check this out. It's footage of him fighting with some paparazzi outside his house.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0

CaptainCraig · 04-10-2012, 06:28 PM

It managed to click up another $1m+ domestically.
It's now at $51.1m domestic and $127.2m worldwide. Can it get to $130m WW? On a $57m budget the numbers are still in Sony's favor.

I'm going to be curious to see what their plan/strategy is going to be with the franchise. The DVD is up for pre-order at Amazon for $22.00 and due for a June release.

My guess is they will want to see how sells and rentals go for the film in the secondary market as a means to bolster whatever route they choose to go.

Pfeiffer-Pfan · 04-10-2012, 06:30 PM

I still think this movie just wasn't worth Sony's time, money or effort...

BigThor · 04-10-2012, 09:05 PM

^ How, it's not a huge success but it was profitable considering it's budget.

AVEITWITHJAMON · 04-11-2012, 04:42 AM

^But at the same time not really anything to shout about, its currently made minimal profit and probably wont make much more, I certainly dont see them doing a 3rd movie.

CaptainCraig · 04-11-2012, 08:51 AM

In fairness, and for comparisons sake, the first one only made minimal profit at the box office.
Now maybe they use the manta Fool me once...
However, some studios are fine with minimal as long as it's profit. Otherwise franchises such as Underworld and Resident Evil wouldn't also continue to be produced.

It could happen, it could and that is what makes following it a bit fun. The not knowing.

AVEITWITHJAMON · 04-11-2012, 09:01 AM

^GR needs bigger budgets than the likes of RE and Underworld though, mainly because the main character needs a lot of CGI. The effects were good in SOV, but lets face it, everyone felt there wasnt enough GR in the movie, and that everything else looked and felt really cheap.

I think a more elaborate and effects-heavy villain would be required for a sequel as well, as the ante would need to be sufficiently upped.

Pfeiffer-Pfan · 04-11-2012, 09:11 AM

I think the biggest question is... did this installment propel the franchise forward and give any significance to the character for popular culture?

probably not.

AVEITWITHJAMON · 04-11-2012, 09:24 AM

^Well, I think if anything, it made the character more of a joke to the GA than the previous movie did, lots of people preferred the 1st one, although its about half and half with people who preferred the 2nd also.

It all depends on Sony, at the moment the movie has made just over $100 million less than the first on a budget reduced by $58, if that enough of a profit margin for Sony? Thats the big question here. The first movie actually did very well on DVD, I cant see SOv doing the same personally.

AVEITWITHJAMON · 04-17-2012, 04:35 AM

Movie is up to £129 million WW now, will possibly make it to $130, the with DVD/BD sales Sony MIGHT make another one, if they do, I hope they keep the Crank guys far, FAR away from it.

CaptainCraig · 04-22-2012, 03:10 PM

The film has officially hit $130m Worldwide with the newest weekend totals.
I think it may have closed domestically as there are no daily totals since April 15th.

AVEITWITHJAMON · 04-23-2012, 03:55 AM

^Yeah I think domestically it is finished, and I think internationally it will be soon as well, cant see it making much more.
