How the fuck did Finding Dory not Crack a billion?

Even if the film is average, it's literally the safest movie in the world to rake in huge profits. How did they fuck up this bad?

well
>not as good as the original
>named after a secondary character
>not old enough for people who saw the original as kids to take their kids
>not close enough to the original for kids to still be hyped about it
Still pretty impressive numbers, all things considered

it's still to come out in the UK and other big european and asian places, so it might still do it

foreigners don't like pixar movies

it's still in cinemas and will be for weeks you fucking fat cunt

>Cgi film with a budget of $200m
>only brought in just over $700m
FLOP

Original is one of the worst stories by Pixar

People dont go to movies anymore, the box office numbers are a lie because the prices keep going up

A really good cam version was on the internet the day before the movie came out

Pick 1

>Dory has no publicity except some stuff about a lesbian couple
>700 million
>Ghostbusters is plastered everywhere
>50 million

Really makes you think...

Non-Americans don't care about talking CGI fish.

PEOPLE

ARE

GETTING

TIRED

>>Cgi film with a budget of $200m

I thought CGI was suppose to make the budgets lower

>end of days explanation
nigga, this movie didn't even have a huge marketing budget and still made 700 mil

How the fuck did it cost 200 million when the Lego movie and secret life of pets look as good or better, have a bunch of celeb voices and only cost around 70 million?

Disney is severely mismanaging their animators and production.

>lying on the internet

W-Well it had a gay couple and those neo-nazi gamergater manbabies got angry and physically stopped people from seeing it!

>safest movie
>not star wars or drive 2

When these studios see it's Disney, it's like a $10000 hammer.

Also I think Disney inflates budgets so they have to pay less backend. Something is fucking going on there.

>it's not like data is available for all these movies!

retard

fucking Finding Dory is Pixar's highest grossing movie in China


boxofficemojo.com/news/?id=4199
>Its international roll-out includes the largest Pixar opening ever in China ($17.5M)

boxofficemojo.com/movies/?page=intl&id=pixar2015.htm
>finished with $38,052,302 in China

You are correct. The Phoenix Order was considered a flop even though it had a budget of 150 mil and made 1 billion.
The financial records show that they went -50 mil minus or more due to expenses.

However the records showed everything super inflated and things that couldn't be explained went to shell companies due to "expenses".

Why? So that Warner Bros did not have to pay tax.

still a 126 million profit
and it hasn't finished, still going strong in US and hasn't opened in Japan

now if we're talking about them ice age movies that foreign plebs love!

It's run is not over dumbass

One reason and one reason only. They released the movie 5 years too late.

Nobody gives a shit anymore.

foreigners have good taste

still has yet to open in all these countries

Not when it comes to the Ice Age movies.
