  1. Warcraft could probably count, considering these facts:

    * $47,365,290 domestic gross
    * $391,683,624 total overseas gross ($225,547,500 China gross, $166,136,124 from other foreign markets)

    * Domestic gross share (55%): $26,050,910
    * Foreign gross share (40%): $66,454,450
    * China gross share (25%): $56,386,875

    * Total gross returned to Universal/Legendary/Blizzard: $148,892,235

    * $270 million combined production budget/worldwide P&A costs

    * Total loss: $121,107,765

  2. USS Indianapolis was an interesting one, $40 million budget and crashed and burned due to a miserable direct to VOD along with some theaters release making back about $1.6 million back.

  3. Not sure if this applies, but I’ve always been curious about the bungled release of “Last Days in the Desert.” Broad Green picked it up and put some effort into publicity, had trade reviews and the star-studded premiere and everything leading up to the release date, but then it seemed to never actually be released in any theaters? It’s possible that they just didn’t report any numbers, but I don’t actually see any evidence a release happened (and since Broad Green was somewhat of a garbage fire at this point, it raises suspicion…)
