Borderlands movie only earns 8% of its budget back from box office sales
making it probably the worst earning movie of all time

This is very good news.

I'm sure there was plenty of ESG money thrown at them so the producers are probably laughing their way to the bank.

DeadPool 3, crossed the 1 billion marker.

It won't be in theaters that long. Movies will make most of their money within the first 2 weeks or so.

Domestically. It takes time to go around the world to foreign releases. Then there will be the sale of the streaming rights. All these add up. It might break even or make a profit.

I'm hoping it's a dismal failure, simply because it triggers my fight or flight reflex.

It's like those extravagant exclusivity deals Epic was giving out.

When the exclusivity (or inclusivity) deal pays more than the company expects to make on sales, then there's no incentive for them to actually make a sellable product.

Will it beat 13th warriors as the biggest bomb in history?

it could have been good but real world the cast was wrong.....the writing being done by anyone that worked on 2 pre, and 3 should never have touched this.....

sorry dude, but if after one week movie doesnt recover at least 50% of its cost

it is game over for the movie and it going to flop

more movie coming, example alien romulus, we still have deadoop vs wolverine and inside out 2

so if people dont care about borderland now, i dont see them care about this movie in semptember, also betelgeuse 2 coming in september

so borderland is toasted

Claptrap should have been main character, like a sequel to wall-e.

first week. if it doesn't recover the costs then, it's considered a critical failure at the box office, doesn't matter what is said in an extra week or the next month and a half.
