    Default 2019 Box Office Busts

    In 2018 from May to December 2018 there was 20 Box Office busts or bombs if you want to say that. Some films had small budgets like "Action Point" with Johnny Knoxville but couldn't return its $19+ million dollar budget at the box office. Then you had epic disasters like "A Wrinkle In Time" that cost Disney a couple hundred million as a bomb. So what do we start the year with ? Lets look at some Keanu.




    Total Box Office : $7.8 million (worldwide)

    Total Budget : $30+ million

    This film was coming from a new studio called "Entertainment Studios" and well it showed. In fact it has only done $3.9+ million domestically thus far and is considered Keanu Reeves worse opening ever. The film was so bad that within its 2nd week it did $400,000+ . Within 2-3 weeks its down to 60+ screens. But here is what is wild is , Entertainment Studios has released 6 films counting Replicas and if you look here ...each film has done worse domestically than the last one. So its a question why this studio continues and how they can at this rate.

    But the year starts off with a huge epic bomb. The only saving grace is the studio only put $10+ million into advertising this film as promotion according to a report from Deadline.

    So did Keanu shoot anybody in the face in this movie? No? Meh, hard pass.

    The latest Box Office bust is one which is a kids film...




    Total Box Office : $21.5 million

    Total Budget : $59 Million

    Another reason Fox was sold is the fact they have had a run of box office bombs the last couple years. This latest one was a kids film that starred Patrick Stewart in a role. The movie was released a few weeks ago and quickly dropped out of the top ten. Its only done $15+ million domestically. Its unlikely to make its money back at this stage.

    I mean if you WANT to sound like a racist sure.

    The movie is set in London. London is incredibly diverse. Having 3 White characters, one Asian character and a Black character is roughly correct.

    40% of London isn't white, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

    Alita: Battle Angel might end up here if the international box office doesn't save it. Finally a good Hollywood anime adaption and it might tank.
