I think you are looking at 145 million domestic. 90 million foreign.
Even without China you are being a bit pessimistic about the foreign gross.
$145 domestic + same rest of world (not outlandish) and ATC is pushing $300 million worldwide.
Not super, but enough to justify the sequel. They will demand much more from a 2nd movie, though.
Boy that sounds familiar.
Almost sounds like what happened with BayTurtles 1 and 2.
First one was a decent box office success(definitely more than Feigbusters) at 65 million OW on 122 million production budget. Sequel was greenlit three days later,
officially. Not like your "sequel's totes on the way" post.
Sequel came out this year, bombed outright. Embarrassingly so.
And the first movie was absolutely PANNED by critics and most fans across the board when it came out. Had quite a bit of hate and negativity all throughout production too.
Huh. Sounding more and more familiar in some ways.
