Disney’s ‘Indiana Jones 5’ Faces $100 Million Loss

Breitbart Reports: Disney’s disastrous Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny is set to lose $100 million, according to this report from the far-left Variety:

“Indy 5,” which opened in late June, has grossed $375 million globally after six weeks of release, while “M:I 7,” which debuted in July, has generated $523 million after five weeks of release. Those ticket sales are respectable in the current moviegoing landscape, especially because the films are part of decades-old properties aimed at older audiences.
The trouble is that each sequel cost roughly $300 million before marketing spends of at least $100 million, making them among the most expensive movies of all time. After falling short of expectations, they could lose nearly $100 million in their theatrical runs, according to sources familiar with the financials of similar productions.

Don’t you believe it.


Instead, believe the math…


Indiana Jones and the Dial of This Is What You Get When You Hire An Idiot Like Kathleen Kennedy cost at least $400 million to produce and promote. I’ve seen estimates as high as $430 million. Dial of Kathleen Kennedy Sucks only grossed $375 million worldwide. It didn’t even earn back its costs. From here, the math is fairly easy… Theaters ate up at least $150 million of that $375 million, which leaves (and I’m being generous to the Disney Grooming Syndicate) $225 million for the Disney Grooming Syndicate. At a minimum, that’s a $200 million loss for Disney. Then there’s what we don’t know, like how much Harrison Ford might take out of the gross.


Yes, the movie will earn a little more money through home video and TV licensing, but not $200 million.
