Could be worse, could be Kraven. But as I said in my unpublished letter to Answerman, I hope the American comics book movie bubble popping doesn't hurt manga and anime.

Polly: People probably missed it on the big screen the first time.

Yikes! Even with a paltry $30 million production budget, that's terrible. That's only about $5 million back to the studio so far. In fact, at Sunday's box office (according to Box Office Mojo), Rohirrim came in 8th place. For instance, the rerelease of Interstellar (the number five movie) made $1,279,579 in 321 theaters, as opposed to Rohimrrim (the number eight movie) which made $1,061,878--a pretty major difference--in 2600 theaters. Also, Interstellar's been out 10 days, Rohirrim three. Again, yikes.
The only good news is that their exposure is probably in the $50 million range, including advertising, so yes, it can't possibly lose as much money as Kraven. And once it goes to streaming it will possibly get a lot of views, since people are essentially getting it for free. (Or it will be utterly ignored there, too.) Still and all, I'll bet they were at least hoping to break even on the theatrical showings. Gatsu worried:
I'd say the opposite, frankly. The fact that western companies seem so inept now at entertaining western audiences is the very thing driving so many to look to Asia (K-Pop, K-dramas, anime, mange, etc.). |
