>>81567404
>it's an anon can't read episode

They should have gone for a lesser known Asian actress would have saved and made more money

just came back from seeing this there is literally nothing wrong with it and I hope they make another one

Akira can get away with that; being what sparked the interest in making The Matrix and that being a known fact that the Walchalskys' and Weebs.

GitS could not; being the fact that the only thing the general public knows nothing about the original except for Cyborg Titties and nothing else.

>>81567370
That doesn't include the marketing budget. GitS (2017) is fucked.

>>81567546
GitS inspired The Matrix, not Akira. Fucking dumbass namecuck.

i just watched this last night and it was awesome.

>>81568619
If you thought it was awesome, you should check out the 1995 movie or the Stand Alone Complex anime. Your mind will be blown.

It's going to make back its budget at the box office. The bit will profit on video deals and bluray

>>81568540
normally marketing budget is what? half of movie or double movie budget?

my yarmulke isn't around for me to know

>>81567370
double the budget to include PR

>>81568690
It depends on the movie. Kubo and the Two Strings got little to no marketing, so the marketing budget was probably less than half of the movie's actual budget. But Ghost in the Shell has been getting advertised fairly well. I don't see it at gas stations or grocery stores or anything, but there is a decent amount of advertising for it. I would guess at least half of the film budget was added for marketing. At least $55 million.

Batman v Superman had an insane marketing campaign if you want an idea of how much money gets spent on this shit. That film's budget is supposedly $250 million and they spent at least half of that on marketing. There were two fucking Super Bowl commercials, cereal boxes, all the toys, etc. You sort of have to keep things in perspective as an individual in order to figure it out without any hard figures.

>>81568809
Sorry, I meant to say that BvS had at least an equal amount of money spent on marketing. So a film budget of $250 million+ and a marketing budget of $250 million+.

>>81568809
Kubo didn't have to be profitable. That entire studio is just the passion project of a billionaire that can blow through budgets without a care in the world.

>>81568883
I was just giving an example. Kubo was the first thing to come to mind.

Also I thought Laika was run by the son of a billionaire?

>>81568942
Yeah, the son of Nike's owner.
But his father tosses in money.

>>81567516
I hope they make a sequel too

I wanna see more Batou and Togusa together

>>81568690
They already said the movies marketting budget was $60

Hopefully this movie somehow gets more box office next weekend

>>81569355
$60 million I mean

>alienate your japanese audience by casting a ugly white aging actress to play the lead
>alienate your audience even further by having the creator of the show openly state he's onboard with the whitewashing
>movie fucking flops financially besides reviewing well

It's amazing how hollywood learned nothing from the ghostbusters reboot

>>81569438
You do realize the japanese had no problem with Scarjo right?

Have you seen Japans porn, or their game shows, or their subcultures? Japan doesn't have a problem with a lot of things.

>>81567370
A film needs to double its budget to break even.

Watched it yesterday. It was a pretty ok. They simplified the search of individuality and consciousness to merely a search of ones past. It felt more like Jason Bourne with the "who am I?" question. I'm ok with it because this version was good in its own way and it's something I can watch with friends and family who won't get lost because it's too complex/deep to understand. This is something that normies can delve themselves into without going way over their heads. Solid 7.8/10.

>>81567404
they do, actually

theaters don't get a fucking cent, they have to make money from the junk food
