Also, I think Paranormal Event blows away the Purge.

This antagonist was the only one that even semi lived up to the hype created by the advertising and then only barely.

I remember all the American Patriot costumes for the third one and those characters were in the movie for all of two minutes before being iced in an antic climactic way.

I wish the movies weren't so littered with black liberal propaganda.

All the bad guys are evil white racists and all the good guys are poor black folk or white cannon fodder.

Insidious too.

Saw

Insidious

P. Activity

> 889 mil profit / 28 mil budget

Movies never make money. Thanks to Hollywood accounting, the studios and distributors have reported every movie made in the past 70 years to the IRS as a net loss, including Titanic and Avatar. Movies are literally made to launder drug and human trafficker money and the American taxpayer foots the bill. Trump needs to do something about Hollywood.

For some reason niggers love the idea of a purge. Guess they don't realize they would be culled off without Gibb me dats

Hard to tell. Older series like Halloween would need to be adjusted for inflation and many didn't get official worldwide releases or there was no record keeping. I'd say the Paranormal Acitivity series would have to be the top. The Saw movies have real budgets.

Hollywood studios use exactly the same system every other large corporation uses.

Studios don't report losses (they in fact try to hide or diminish the reporting of losses and will often put multiple losses under one title to hide a slate of bad films - see John Carter losing more than it cost to make and market).

Production Companies report losses because of fees charged by studiosl holding companies based in more tax friendly locations.

Facebook U.K. earned 1.5 billion in 2015.

It could only pay 4 million in tax though as it owed Facebook Ireland well over a billion dollars in """""""service fees""""""" and unfortunately Facebook Ireland also could only pay a small amount of tax too because half of those earnings had to be paid to Facebook USA and the other half to Facebook Cayman Islands. Sad.

Adjusted for inflation these numbers get crazy.

Can you imagine someone making Avengers tier money on a low budget indie sports drama now?

Shit, even dances with wolves...

Oscar b8 now seems to repulse normie cinema goers.

Get Out has made $111 million worldwide on a production budget of $4.5 million.

>Oscar b8 now seems to repulse normie cinema goers.
Neither of those films were made to win Oscars, and stuff like American Sniper and Fury Road get best picture nominations, so I'd say that's untrue.

>>80358013

Mad Max in 07 numbers (P. Activity year of release)

>367,000 budget

>367 million profit

Still not as impressive as Paranormal Activity I guess.

>>80358210
Fifteen thousand dollars.
Or the price of a cheap rice-grinder college car.

Dances With Wolves in quintessential Oscar b8 and definitely not what was thought of as a crowd pleasing blockbuster (until it was).

>>80358066

Older numbers are usually do to multiple releases.

Costner was always making "le quintessentially American" films at that time.
Untouchables
JFK
Field of Dreams
Wyatt Earp
The Postman and on and on

He's so consistent at it that it's hard to call his efforts Oscar bait.

paranormal was blumhouse, right?

third actsaside, they're really good at using the bare minimum to get ridiculous returns

heroes are a white guy protecting a white lady.

they just saw this as a fuckin' action movie.
