The lack of promo was blatant Just the fact that half of the dialogs are in modern Chinese is enough for me they did it so well it is a breath of fresh air The SC production budget was $200 million, and an average promotional budget is above $50 million. How much did you expect them to promote when theatrical took a massive hit due to Rona and is still in recovery mode? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know I wanted to believe it wasn't true either but then I just saw the F9 did over $700 million this year. I mean even Godzilla vs King Kong did over $450 Million and it was released for free on HBO. Widow and Shang both kinda flopped this year. You can't even blame Covid-19 at this point.

Both F9 and GvK were released in China while shang chi and bw were not. F9 made 203 million in china while GvK made 188 million. MCU is popular in China.

Basically everywhere against F9. But ok this is only about China. And GvK was available for free in the US on HBO where I saw it. FREE not even the Disney+ $30 fee. It was FREE, FREE, FREE! Also in March vaccines were not even available to all US. They were made available in April 19 to all adults. So so most people under 60 something was not fully vaccinated and it still made $100 million in the US versus $200 million for Shang-Chi. And Teens didn't even start getting vaccinated until approval on May 10th. And that was the US dates for vaccines. Around the world they were probably available much later. Also most movie theatres in the US didn't even open until mid August. but yeah this is about just China.

Black Widow made PVOD money and Shang-Chi had almost a month at the box office before the bigger franchise films came to siphon off the box office money. Promoting it more wouldn’t have made a difference without a release in China, the second biggest movie market. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

homomo 23,875 Posted October 1, 2021 Share Posted October 1, 2021 I don’t care for Marvel films, but went to see this one and I think it’s the best one (Marvel) I’ve ever seen. The last 30 min was a wild ride, and gave me chills. 0110100001100101011011000110110001101111 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, depends on marketing but there was a huge push by Disney to make sure everyone know how much was "spent" on marketing and movie budget. So it was probably alot more than that. Either way is doesn't matter, a sequel will definitely gross more. It always does. Also I wasn't the one who wrote the OP or the title of the thread. I was just comparing to F9 and GvK.

So it was probably alot more than that. F9, Widow, and ShChi broke even and made small profit. To break even, (Budget x 2.5 = break even) F9 without counting China, is $513M total. Budget $200M x 2.5 = $500M to break even. F9 made $13M profit. Here's the link to the budget of GvK www.imdb.com/title/tt5034838/ (scroll to the bottom) Box office Budget $200,000,000 (estimated) x 2.5 = $500M to break even. GvK's total was $467M. GvK flopped and lost money Blck Widow's budget was $200M x 2.5 = $500M to break even. BW made $378M total and adding the Disney+ $125M = $503M. It made $3M profit. Disney had to pay ScarletJo $40M for the lawsuit. So this movie lost money due to the $40M loss. ShChi's budget was $150M x 2.5 = $375M to break even. Right now, SC made a total of $383M, which is $8M for profit. Estimating next week (last week) will make about $15M. So ShChi profits a total of about $23M. SC did not flop.
