Birds of Prey Birds of Prey General Discussion and Speculation

[Fincher]

Hopefully a hard final push and some good reviews can push this over 60M or more and we get a sequel/spin off and maybe GCS

Not $60 million. The studio has to split the profits with theaters, and after that they have to pay off the cost of marketing it as well. It's more along the lines of 2 1/2 or 3 times its budget, so something like $150 to $180 million if it cost $60 million. Wikipedia says it cost $75 to 97.1 million, though, so going by that $187.5 to $291.3 million.

Who knows about legs, but that’s pretty big for an R-rated film like this. A Shazam box office run would be pretty great for them.

97M budget, that's interesting, now it probably needs 300M to break even, so probably wants a 60M+ start DOM now? Though Shazam started with 53M I think and finished close to 400M?

 

[TheScarecrow]

Good reviews would push it higher - maybe 75M, legs could get it to $200M domestic and around $450-500M worldwide?

WB would be pretty happy with that.

 

[Micromind]

As always Paramount is making sure to spoil WB's party, Sonic The Hedgehog will get released one week after Birds of Prey release. Paramount is amping up the marketing.

Watch out for Sonic on 14th Feb !

 

[TheScarecrow]

I actually hope Sonic is a success (Paramount needs a win), but I doubt its going to have much of a crossover in demographics with Birds of Prey.

Lois: so what does the S stand for?

Kal-el smirks "Sonic Hedgehog!"

From new TV spot

 

[Shinobi Shaw]

I’m gonna reserve judgment until I see the movie but from here it looks like they recycled Catwoman’s mask from TDKR and just gave it to Huntress.

 

[Fincher]

Huntress's costume is iffy, but I'll take it over Black Canary's any day of the week.
