Sandler had his cookie cutter movies that I'm sure he made a lot of money off of back in the 90s.

Birds of Prey opened with a poor $33m, way below industry tracking and even below studio expectations which were ($45m). Biggest problem may be that perfect audience for film is teens but they decided to make it R rated, apparently it's only R rated due to lots of swear words that aren't even necessary.I think one of the issues is that Harley debuted in suicide squad. Which sucked and people didnt like. This kind associated with that movie
With a budget of about $100m they might make a loss.

Because everytime I see an add to this it does feel like it wants to appeal to that demographic. And if a few curse words are what stopped it then it seems like a bad decision.
Apparently 35% of the film's audience are under 25 compared to 54% for Suicide Squad and teens are giving it the most positive scores, seems like the R rating was just a disastrous decision. Teens who want to see the film and will probably enjoy it and create WOM aren't being allowed to watch. Marketing was very much trying to be teen appealing as well. Just a really weird clash of ideas on this one.
Overseas opening is possibly even worse for the film with a global opening of $81m (expectation was about $120m). It will probably squek past $200m but not much more, which is very much the territory for being in the red.
Looking forward to seeing how much Parasite jumps in the next week.
How the eff do a few curse words make it R rated though lol.Its not just a few curse words but its very heavy on the swearing, lots of motherfuckers and stuff like that. Add that onto the violence and some naughtiness and drug references and they got themselves an R rating. Apparently all the swearing adds nothing to the film, its just there for the sake of it. And without all the swearing it would have got by with a teen rating.
How the eff do a few curse words make it R rated though lol.It's not the naughtiness and violence that made it R. It's the sexy violence.
