Surely, every fan of the film they like is interested in information not only of a general nature - the list of involved actors, producers, directors, individual facts about the film. The categories “budget” and “fees” occupy a special place. From them you can guess what the success of the film will be. What is the box office from the rental of the picture, we will understand further.
From budget to profit - one step
These two important components are inseparable from each other. In simple English, box office revenue represents the difference between the money invested in production (including marketing and advertising) and the money that the film ultimately brings in. But this is not the final profit. Often, a certain percentage is taken by cinemas that release the tape for hire. Tracking revenue from tickets sold is ongoing, for which there are specially created analytical departments in large film studios and branches in other countries.
For everyone involved in the production of the film, a contract is developed, under the terms of which a fee is negotiated. He can befixed, regardless of the future success of the picture, or make up some part, and a certain percentage is left for later, after the end of the rental. It is known that this method is often used by Tom Cruise. For the third part of the film "Mission Impossible" his fee was 75 million dollars. Income from the film Ghost Protocol consisted of a negotiated fee of 12.5 million, in addition to this, a percentage of the final proceeds from ticket sales was added. The box office is classified information that companies prefer to keep secret. This, of course, causes a burning interest among fans, but in most cases, they are left wondering who gets and how much.
Box office is the main condition in choosing a film
Information about profits says a lot. This is an indicator of the status of the studio that released the film, as well as a prerequisite for choosing this film to watch. Each viewer from the variety of products presented wants to focus on what is really interesting. No one wants to waste their time on mediocre tapes. Thus, box office receipts can tell with great certainty about the size and popularity of a particular picture, under which its quality is hidden.
Subtotals
While the picture is at the box office, analytical reports are compiled weekly, which talk about the place occupied by the film. Other tapes running at the same time are compared. Such lists are called Box-Office. They reflect various data: the total budget, the number of weeks of rental,weekend (weekend) fees, general fees.
The best of the best
Biggest movie site Boxofficemojo.com tracks video rental fees all the time. And it compiles lists of the most successful films based on ticket sales data. This information is not recognized as official, but it can be considered objective, if only because the total figure does not include profit from television shows, video and DVD rentals. It also takes into account inflation, which contributes to the promotion of higher positions. The box office collections of films, studied by parameters such as country and year of release, make it possible to present those films that occupy a leading position. Among them:
- "Avatar".
- “Titanic”.
- Star Wars.
- “Gone with the Wind.”
- “The Dark Knight.”
- “Jurassic Park.”
- “Frozen.”
- “Alice in Wonderland.”
- “The Lion King.”
- “The Da Vinci Code.”
The most profitable series include:
- “Harry Potter.”
- “James Bond.”
- “Avengers”.
- “Spider-Man.”
- “The Lord of the Rings.”
- “Transformers”.
- “Pirates of the Caribbean”.
- “Twilight”.
