Wicked absolutely flopped overseas. $200 million total box office so far, but 75% of that is domestic. This suggests very limited legs. Against a $160 million budget, assuming ghostbusters 2016 math, Wicked needs to clear $450 million to break even. Seems unlikely.
Gladiator 2 is sort of the opposite. $314 million, and over half of it coming from international markets. Could possibly hit half a billion. But a $250 million budgets means it has almost no chance to break even.
These are not hits. These are actually mediocre performers with decent chances to become flops. Hollywood’s personal media is hyping up the absolute numbers in order to create the illusion of success.
Pedowood has spent huge sums of money trying to get people to watch their woke shit recently.
I'll be interested in a movie with a White cast and a male lead in a positive role and no bashing or shaming White peoples and their traditions. An impossible task for Holywood.
You can get that, if its a feelbad holocaust movie. American conservatism is highly regarded when they need you to do their dirty work.
Remember Brad Pitt in Inglorious Bastards? When is a man from Appalachia ever portrayed as heroic and not an inbred racist? When he is fighting the natsees.
“Big bucks” is a relative term.

I also heard a rumor that Wicked has an absolutely monstrous marketing budget. If true, it's on the path to disappointment.
