Biggest flop of the century.

memes aside it will probably not profit 1 billion like Avatar did
sad!

Don't pay your actors so much then

Hollywood accounting at its finest. Gov won't see a shekel for gibs.

Hollywood Accounting
Meanwhile Igor will get a 500mil bonus

Yeah, sure. Poor Disney. It has bad and unimaginative accountability.

Bullshit of the highest degree.

what a load of shit. nothing is never enough for these execs especially a guy like bob iger. or maybe the title should read "end game didn't make enough to cover the costs of all the other live action flops we keep making"

That's stupid. Endgame is an AD for the avengers BRAND. What they lose in movie sales, they make up in droves with merchandizing and spinoffs.

Don't worry ,they fired all the big salary boys

Just how much did Disney spend on this movie, so what might possibly be the 2nd or highest grossing film isn't considered a gigantic success?

I made this with MS paint

So, does this mean this is the end for capeshit, finally? At least the end of these overrated crossovers?

Budgets will only get bigger, I don't see Disney spending so much in the future, especially if they want to buy the world.

they had to buy all the tickets to captain marvel and this

Not really, this is just a cover so they can do the typical hollywood practice of showing a movie as zero profit on paper so they don't have to pay taxes.

Normally it's a piece of cake to write off a movie as unprofitable. For this one it's going to be a lot of stories like this one and a fuckton of creative accounting to dodge that tax bill

>second highest grossing movie ever
>actually it didn't make that much when u think about it. honest!
i believe them

This

Iron Man and Cap were the ones carrying the movies though. Thor too, but now that they killed his character nobody will care about him anymore

> he thinks it's due to actors' payments
oof, the kid truly never has opened an accounting book

40pct of any given budget is pretty much payroll, brainlet

Hollywood embezzlement at its finest.

to be fair, RDJ got like 70m just for IW due to his deferred bonuses contract. Probably getting 100 for Endgame

In other words, they’re cheating on their taxes

not if you’re doing the books in Hollywood, goy

This is what happens when you buy tickets just to make inventors not regret going to you. Kek

and we all know whose at fault

>finally a movie so big that hollywood will HAVE to pay tax
>uhh no goyim you see eerr it cost 4 billion! yeah thats right, 4! wow what a disaster how could we be so blind

How does it work
Does Disney claim they spent 500m on cgi or what

Embezzlement. Producer hires wife's catering company at 5 times the normal price. Shit like that

the avengers have to pay for every live action flop lol

wew, the man literally doesn't have to work a single day the rest of his life

so 30% is payroll, 40% is money laundering and embezzlement, and 30% production

Big studios do this with every single movie. Gotta hide them profits from IRS/Stock holders.

They have a separate corporate entity in charge of 'distribution'. They then pay that corporation, which is them, a huge distribution fee and the movie itself makes no profit for their main corp. ROTJ is still a 'money loser' even now. So is Harry Potter.

So that's where the money for the Captain Flop tickets was coming from lmao. Gotta love these jews man

He hasn't for a really long time.

>merchandizing
like what ?

And how doesn't the irs intervene

Marvel doesn't sell that much merchandising though, not even among kids at least here in Europe
>t. knower

Did you write this yourself in paint OP?

Capitalism was a mistake

Because Jews control the IRS. Jews control Hollywood. Put 2 and 2 together.

Apparently infinity war only profited around 500 million or so. Which means the total costs associated with the damn project were around 1.5 billion. What the fuck Disney. No wonder they considered age of ultron a total flop

KEK EVEN AVATAR WITH ITS 500 MILLION DOLLAR BUDGET MADE IT BACK AHAHAHHAHAHAAHHAHAHA

Not profitable is codeword for we made a shitton of money bout when aren't going to pay any taxes to the goyim government.

they dont sell toys but they sell a lot of other shit.

Lol typical jew tactics to not pay taxes

I'm looking forward to seeing some numbers once the flick is off screens.

I'm pretty sure it didn't cost $2 billion to make and market it

Try clothes, toys, comics, Blu Ray sales, Video games (Ultimate Alliance is coming), other useless shit that has the avengers on it.
You underestimate people with children user.

>Disney warns
Which narrative are you guys going to stick to? First Disney buys their own tickets for reasons and now Disney is like "woah we didn't actually make that much money lmao". Which one is it?

You must be retarded.

Well A-list actor are extremely overpaid, and Infinity War/Endgame had like 100 of them.

If this movie had even a billion dollar budget I would vomit.

According to projections this movie cost 3 billion to make and market. All the receipts aren't in, it could hit 3.3bill

They'll make the profit off the dvd blu ray and cable downloads

timely campaign donations to the right people

>bump limit for a screenshot of a text that was likely written by OP himself
never change Yea Forums

Avengfers movies had always big budgets compared to the solo-movies who rarley got over 200 million.

>3 billion to make
does anyone actually believe this lol

It did, well, it was shot with IW. As one shot it had the first budget over 1 billion.

no

Beat way for Trump to hatefuck Hollywood is to stop Hollywood accounting.

Ah yes I forgot Lego and comics (though in this case I consider that the movies are the merchandizing). Other than that I've never seen the other stuff, but we don't buy capeshit here.

>capitalism
Based retard poster. Explain how this form of corruption wouldn't happen under any other system.

Its not necessarily just the production. It Only cost 320 million or so to make. It's everything else from marketing, to salaries, money deals and sponsorships etc. Because theyre paying so many high profile actors so much, and there are so damn many of them, I wouldn't be surprised if total costs were around 2 billion

At this rate, it won't even beat Avatar. Pathetic.

Shazaam wins again

He also gets a percentage of the sales as well. Whoever negotiated his contract was a genius.

>bots

Total cost for IW was 775 million, so not really.

This reminds me of the Tomb Raider vg reboot.

source?

Also people forget that they shot both movies together so they saved money on some costs.

>star wars is just a film series

>didn't even beat Avatar
>fucking Avatar of all things
Eleven years, hundreds of billions of dollars sunk into marketing costs, movies and merchandising, and they can't even beat Cameron's brainfart.

Is our glorious system new to you, my dude?

>360 million production budget
>another 300 million on marketing

Meaning it started making money at 1.4 billion box office so it should still make a lot.

>Yea Forums is one person

Source?

yeah I'm sure most of the budget went into (((CGI))). They're either laundering money, evading taxes or someone is getting a fat bonus.

/thread

To be honest, you pretty much described Yea Forums and Yea Forums. Just replace movies with video games and sports respectively. I admit, I only post on Yea Forums to troll superbowl and basketball fags constantly. I couldn't care less about sports, but sports fans are so easily rattled and emotionally invested in their teams, that trolling them is irresistible.

This. Though I don't think they had their own endgame tickets, just captain marvel. They just push the ticket cost to endgame section. That way they can truly claim that they didn't do anything fishy with captain marvel. And they can also claim as the OP pic for whatever reason they want.

Yea Forums is a shell of its former self

worth it

Capitalism isn't at fault. I would consider the problem to actually be the invention of the 'corporation'. I think corporations as an entity should be outlawed. Should just say all companies are sole proprieters, that's it.
Corporations just allow for jewish tricks like this, where people do blatantly immoral/illegal shit, but then say 'LOL IT WAS THE CORPORATION WHO DID THAT' and hooknose their way off into the sunset. I think we need to go back to a system where if your company does something, you as the sole owner are responsible for it.

Also removing corporate entities would limit the size and power a company could wield. There's only so much one person can control and do by themselves.

who is Disney warning?

Just look at Harvey Weinstein celebs are basically high class escorts for the elite.

pirate of carribean 4 cost much more and made much less

>Igor

Don't you mean Goldstein?

Disney is NEVER happy with the results.

The point is to jew the actors. IRS doesn't give a shit so long as it gets its money.

>budget was 400 million dollars
>literally made 2.3 billion dollars in ticket sales worldwide
>no profit

Honestly good for them

This.

Hollywood companies also set up funds as tax write-offs, like charities. For example, you set up a charity corporation. You "donate" a huge pile of money to them, but because of the way you do it, you're exempt from taxes on it. The charity then buys tickets and distributes them, which funnels money back into your studio (and also jacks up the number of tickets bought, albeit artificially). However, because you're paying huge distribution fees (to another corporate entity), you aren't actually making a profit, and if you're actually making a loss (on paper) then you get refunds and rebates etc. from the government. This also means anybody on a contract of "paid a percentage of net profit" officially gets paid nothing, because the movie has, technically, not made any profit. And is why "net profit" is bullshit, because you're never paid it (and is why RDJ's "gross dollar" deal for Avengers led to him walking away with millions while the rest of the cast were stuck on net profit and standard fee contracts, meaning they got $200k tops or something).

>entertainment.howstuffworks.com/hollywood-accounting.htm

It is a dirty, disgusting industry. Functionally it's money laundering. You even have studio executives who actually expense account everything to a blockbuster movie, which then means they can be voted larger bonuses at the end of the year.

The head of the IRS is Josh Koskinen. Not even jewish. Same goes for the Federal Reserve now.

Probably means they fudged the numbers to take bigger cuts/pay less tax.

>puppet isn't jewish therefore it's a nothingburger
great take stupid tripfag.
