Thanks to Storyblocks for sponsoring this video! Download unlimited stock media at one set price with Storyblocks: www.storyblocks.com/ModernMBA Update: Some viewers have correctly raised that the studios have to split the box office with theaters at a 50/50 with regions like China taking an even greater cut. The industry rule of thumb is that a film has to 2.5X production budget in worldwide box office to break-even. The video incorrectly oversimplifies that the break-even point is 1:1 with domestic performance. This mistake was partly due to the data constraints - lack of transparency in international box office sales, "rumored / guessestimate" marketing spend, and undisclosed tax benefits / incentives which all improve film profitability and lower costs (very little of which is ever officially reported).

Kinda feels like Lionsgate made the classic “middle man” mistake in business. It’s great and all and if your producing behind the scenes making great shows and profiting off the sales to networks, but what happens when those networks go to the talent directly and produce the hit shows themselves? At that point why do they need you? This could be saved however if Liongate had enough of a brand and people knew they where the ones to produce these show but no, AMC got the credit for Mad Men and Netflix got the credit for Orange is the New Black. So again, even if you produced the show how do people know to go to you if another network’s name is plastered all over it? It’s times like these you realize the genius that went into making A24 what it is now.

@modernmba Great vid. Note: @9:19 the studios never make their money back from the first 2 weeks. You forgot to deduct exhibition fees which is typically 30-50%, reducing weekly the longer the film stays in theaters. It is rare to make back your money from this window, let alone make a profit. The only 2 instances this happens is if your film does well and cost $5m or less (Blumhouse model) or your film makes $500m or more (Barbenheimer). Apart from exhibitors, there's distribution cost, sales cost but all those 'companies' either are partners/work for the studio or are owned by the studio. Your example of The Batman: cost 200m, made 264m in two weeks. 79m-132m goes to the exhibitor. Lets say half, so 132m goes to studio. Marketing is about$150m. So in two weeks they're losing 18m. Typically, with these type of movies, 3x your budget is breakeven. They definitely surpassed that, hence, The Batman part 2 in 2025. But again, great video. All the best.

One important thing to note is the accounting practices of these studios. Often most of the external labour, resources, and advertisement agencies are either a subsidiary or a firm in cahoots eith the studio to overcharge the studio, hence the studio on paper makes less profit or even a loss, and thus dont pay as much if any taxes or royalties to IP holders eventhough in reality the money is just passed around in a circle.

Great video. The movie revenue didn't consider the theaters taking 1/2 of the receipts the first 3 weeks, then the share drops starting in weeks 4 to 5. Many movies report the revenue and don't mention the theater's share, so the movie looks like a hit. A $200 million budget movie will need to cross $500 million to actually make a profit.

Or, canceled because they were to close to real life. I can't but see this in The Twilight Zone, Westworld, and 30 Rock. Watching anything "nostalgic" is a nightmare. How are things still the same today? The Wire. I don't blame companies. It's the majority who follow and submit to this Dystopia. Why was it so easy? No one complained to any of these companies. They love themselves and these monsters who care nothing about them. You can't claim to hate ads and live on a platform of 30 to 60 second videos.

You forgot to mention that movie studios technically are banned from also owning movie theaters so box office receipts always have to incur exhibitor's fees/cut. For domestic that can be 30-50% depending on the release weekend and for foreign its upwards of 65% and as much as 75-80 in China. Studios love to tout box office revenue as the topline most impressive and inflated revenue stream but they hate to actually be transparent with how much they're paying exhibitors/partners and how much marketing and theatrical distribution (known as P&A in the industry) costs them. And they gaslight everyone into thinking it's the streamers being all shady with their data LMAO. Movie theaters haven't posted average ticket price studies, which had been volunteered by the National Association of Theater Owners for over 20 years, since 2019 because they're trying to hide the fact that box office is being severely over inflated by higher ticket prices to mask a two decade decline in admissions that's only acceleratiing since the pandemic. Once you actually account for all theatrical related costs it's likely 90%+ of movies released theatrically lose money. They THINK theatrical runs buys them this ephemeral "cultural awareness" but it's typically just reading any kind of success in ancillary release windows (on demand, rental/home video, streaming) as being BECAUSE a movie flopped in theaters not IN SPITE of it which is more likely. What's hilarious is they got all the creatives brainwashed into thinking that flopping in an embarassing public theatrical release is somehow better than being a major hit direct to streaming, even though nothing ensures you'll never work again like flopping theatrically no matter how much lip service they pay to the "experience".

They are licensing their films to their own streaming services, losing massive amounts on license fees which the subscriber base growth does not provably and proportionately make up for.

@@dbsk06No, it’s common knowledge if you follow the movie industry even casually lol. I was disappointed. It makes me question his videos where I don’t have any preexisting knowledge tbh

The title of this video should definitely include "Lionsgate." It's a video about Lionsgate, so that would make sense to do.

37:53 Thanks for letting me know that James Bond franchise is on Amazon now! Looks like 12 of the 25 movies available for “free” (with a prime subscription). That IP has been so fragmented for so long.

Theatrical release probably lasts 2 months max now then it goes to Amazon digital rental and maybe streaming services after 3 months.

As usual great content! Just wanted to note that it would be more accurate to explain in the beginning that the studios are getting only ~50% of box office. That makes the statement that “Top gun makes up the budget in its first week” inaccurate even without accounting for marketing budget.

Loved seeing Warrior used as an example. I love that movie and never thought it got the viewership it deserved

Top quality video, however, it must be pointed out that movie box office does not equal to studio's revenue, because movie theaters take a big cut out of it. I believe the writer are aware of it, however it is indicated several times in the video that studio recruited the production cost with week 1 box office, etc, which would not be true in any case.

I wanted to let you know there's an error at 8:40. Your graph shows avengers end game released in 2018 but it actually released in 2019!
