That's if it made that much
And gross income doesn't matter, operating income does

Apparently the cost for making Road to Ninja exceeded $1,260,000 (source: http://www.crunchyro...al-dvd-in-japan). The return of that in the debut equaled $3,800,000.

 

Now if you were to triple the budget for The Last, that would come out to about $3,780,000. The box office during the first week was $4,300,000. It exceeds the production costs, but as someone mentioned, the revenue it brings in would need to exceed double the budget for it to be considered a profit. We should expect The Last to eventually reach that objective, but this multiple of RtN's budget is probably not even accurate.

You're right...I'll go put on the cone of shame now

With my personal experience, most don't give a kitten about the story and pirate everything. The only thing they might buy is the games, but most have like only 2 naruto games(the old ones too)

Yup, which is why I don't get why Kishimoto would cater to the west, because they're obviously not gonna give a kitten about or buy anything he makes. It's just really funny to me, since there's a thing against piracy going on in Japan right now

Did she ever change her clan like she promised Neji?

I think she forgot... or didnt give a flying F!sh.

LOL OMG I just discovered that I still have RTN on my comp from when I transferred everything from the old computer to it...

 

[Hanabi]

I'm really wondering what made them think a movie about a side character would gain them that much? She only popular here in the west, and it's not like they're gonna buy that kitten here. Then they already don't care for her that much in Japan, so

i don't think the studio hinarot care. they already proved themselves to be so bias that they dare to draw pain as a looney toon character. i remember one reviewer in yahoo movie site also feel that the studio did this hinata movie for their own satisfaction.

If what you said about RtN is true than this wasn't the case

I should re-phrase that. It needs to make atleast twice its budget back to have done well.Generally speaking movies tend to use as much money on the film as they do commercializing it. So atleast this answers the question why they went a different direction than RTN. They thought it wasn't making them enough money so they decided to go with NH

You're right though, it's not accurate, we need to wait and find out

It seems that the theory of Otaku's from SP and the people who work with kishimoto decieved him is looking to be what happened, because everything that he says seems to be false

The Last accumulating double the production costs is practically guaranteed. It's earning at a slower pace compared to how long it took for RtN's return to become net gains, but it could be argued that the greater budget is making it difficult for sales to exceed its costs quickly.

This is gonna be their biggest downfall, that's for sure

Yeah, it's definitely starting to look that way, because his interviews makes it feel like he has no idea what's going on around him when he speaks.
