The Numbers Business Report looks at how much an Oscar is worth
February 29, 2024
With the Oscars coming up on March 10, the latest issue of The Numbers Business Report looks at how much Oscar nominations and wins are worth. The analysis includes a major update to our box office prediction model that now allows us to see how much our model thinks a film will have earned by the end of its run at any point after it has been released. It turns out that some films are helped a lot by a Best Picture nomination, and, even if they don’t win the big prize, also get a boost from the telecast. Others… not so much. Pick up a copy of the Report for details.
Also in this edition…
We have our final pre-release prediction for Dune: Part Two (we’ll have the details on that here on the site tomorrow), along with predictions for every wide release through the end of 2024 and our updated market analysis for the year.
Our domestic and international release schedules cover all films being released domestically over the next month, and all major international releases in 15 territories, organized by date and by movie.
For the home market, we have a monthly update on the theatrical window for new releases, including trend analysis. This month we’ve also added information on what films are available or coming soon to streaming services.
On the talent front, we include Bankability values for the top 250 creative talents in the business, expanding our unique perspective on the people in front of, and behind the camera.
Our month tech update discusses the methodology behind our new prediction model, and explains how we discovered the remarkable similarity of the box office runs of last year’s Killers of the Flower Moon and Haunted Mansion.
