Box Office: 'Wonder Woman' Tops 'Iron Man 3,'

>>95122488
I feel like Wonder Woman's been playing in theaters much longer than any other blockbuster.

>>95122498

Because it's got legs.

It's gonna be hilarious when China helps Spiderman absolutely crush this piece of shit

>>95122498
WB is desperate for any kind of success seeing as every single one of their "movies" bombed this year

>>95122498
It's all feminist agenda of ess-jayy-dubluus.

Yeah, she does.

It's not up to Warner to keep the movie in theaters. I don't think you are intelligent enough to understand how capitalism works though.

i sat through the whole first act, it struck me as very uninteresting and very normie-bait, really reminded me of "avengers 90 minutes of ultron"

So if a film does incredibly well overseas but flops in the U.S., does that make it a hit? As with everything else to do with box office, the answer is "it depends." But generally, domestic revenue seems to be be better for studios than overseas revenue, because the studios take a bigger cut of domestic revenue.

>According to the bookThe Hollywood Economistby Edward Jay Epstein, studios take in about 40 percent of the revenue from overseas release — and after expenses, they're lucky if they take in 15 percent of that number.

>Domestic revenue just counts for a lot more than overseas revenue, says David Mumpower with Box Office Prophets:

>The reason for this is simple. Collecting revenues abroad is a trickier proposition since the dollar fluctuates against foreign currencies. There are also tariffs from these governments in place in order to keep as much money as possible from leaving their countries and going abroad, which is an understandable practice. While the global conglomerates such as Fox, Disney and Time-Warner that run major Hollywood studios can secure sweetheart deals with various local governments, it doesn't happen for each film. As such, international box office revenue is much less reliable than in North America.

Why was IM3 highest grossing anything?

>>95122653

First post-Avengers MCU movie.

>best girl continues to rake in the cash
Again, all this company wars and box office rivalry crap is vaguely bemusing at best. I'm just gleeful that Wondy has seen some mainstream success.

And you can't say that it's not a success, unless you prescribe to the extremely unhealthy way of thinking that says making money isn't enough, that the only measure of success is making ALL the money, ever, in the entire fucking world.

>Warner Bros.
... Oh, right. Well, here in the real world, where money does not, in fact, grow on trees, this movie did fantastically, especially for an overall untested IP that even hardcore fans were afraid was going to be a disaster. Thanks, Patty!

Marvel-fags still triggered. It beat both of your entries this summer. Deal with it.

Was IM3 a success?

>>95122498
the current crop of moves are so shit they had to bring back it, spiderman and cars 3. it's like the fucking 1980's again.

>>95122498
It's because basically everything else this summer has been dogshit.

>>95122498
Theaters near me are still playing this and Spider-man
Summer was a mistake.

I'd love to know what theaters are packed with WW patrons because my theater saw the film doing mediocre at best, and stopped showing it after 6 weeks.

Honestly, is it possible for studios to bake the numbers to produce and artificial hit? Everyone perceives WW as a smash hit, increasing interest in future movies?

>>95122933
Jesus Christ marvelfags are paranoid schizophrenics

>>95122861
Domestically which means literally nothing

And any "success" it had will be completely outweighed by the massive bomb that is Justice League while Thor makes over a billiom

Iron man 3 was worst Iron man anyway.
>Iron man was too yellow
>The guy we though was the Mandarin was actually the decoy and the guy who was actually the Mandarin already had a comic book counterpart
>Tony blew up the suits instead of giving them to shield or Avengers members without powers like Hawkeye

More than possible

>muh company made more than your company
Amazing, I'm sorry Marvel and DC are not paying you clowns lmao

IM3 was horrible, WW was decent but neither of them had to make a fraction of what they did for superhero movies to keep being made so it doesn't really matter to me.

>>95122972
Yes, exactly.
WW did great in the US but bad overseas.

Look, I hate Disney and was in constant eye-roll a year or two ago when people were saying Civil War was the greatest superhero movie ever. It wasn't and MCU is spotty at best. I hate the Iron Man franchise.

But Civil War and IM3 are still like $400M ahead of WW overall. Why the fuck does anyone (BoxOfficeMojo included) spotlight domestic US box office only? What is this, 1968 or something?

And by the way, if WW did outdo those Marvel films worldwide, I'd think it was hilarious and awesome. I think it's awesome she wiped the floor with Spidey this year. But her movie didn't surpass the Marvel Disney big boys. It just didn't.

Fixed.

>IM3 was horrible
It was decent, IM2 is the big disappointment.

>>95122972
>>95122567

>>95123073
While IM2 was a disappointment it have several really good parts, Rourke is really good as Whiplash (to bad writing turn him to shit anyway) and there's good stuff between Tony and Rhodes. IM3 have literally nothing and with Tony instantly building a bazillion new bots it have about as much impact as IM2.

>>95123035
>I think it's awesome she wiped the floor with Spidey this year
It didn't

>Falseflag that will be screemcaped by himself to keep posting these shitty /tv/ threads on /co/.

Kill yourself.

>>95122488
Unless it pulls in Batman Begins or Dark Knight numbers, then these numbers don't mean shit.

>>95123765
You laugh but I remember when people kept saying how if it didn't beat Deadpool it was a flop. Then they immediately changed to Guardians 2 when it beat DP.

Damn, Wondy still going strong.

>>95122488
>Still haven't seen Wonder Woman
Waiting for it to come out on Redbox or something.
I just can't support the DCEU after they dashed my hopes of improvement with BvS. Man of Steel wasnt perfect but it's better than the combined efforts of BvS, and Suicide Squad.

>>95122989
>Domestic market
>Changed numbers in China
Atleast try

>>95123835
By this point it goes without saying that WW did pretty well at theaters but salty haters keep raising the bar and now say that it has to compare with the highest grossing cape flicks of all time to be considered "worthy". Even if it stopped showing at cinema right now it will still be a remarkable success considering pretty much every other super heroine film in history. WW is already a triumph.

>>95122488
That's nice and all but it wasn't even the best hero movie this year.
