Sony Pictures Releasing International is at $2.16 billion through today. It’s thanks in part to the fast success of the 23rd James Bond film Skyfall and Resident Evil: Retribution, the recent Hotel Transylvania and the summer’s The Amazing Spider-Man as well as The Vow, 21 Jump Street, and Men In Black 3. That passes SPRI’s previous best year of 2009 and $2.14B. Worldwide, the studio is at $3.6B moving towards its first ever $4B year. Presently, Sony Pictures is #1 in market share.

Switched @ Birth, Client list and shows to work on. Makes a very good pay day. Hancok rocs.
If they could get their act together in China that total would be quite a bit higher. Has RE5, Vow, Trans,etc been released there yet? Will they even get in?
And still SPE posts only $100m in profit, and Sony puts them up for sale. Makes you wonder who taught Lynton and Pascal the economics of running a business.
And yet Columbia is out of cash not spending a dollar until the new fiscal year in April
$4 billion in annual revenue, No.1 in market share and the studio is broke?! What a sorry state of affairs. Is it the Hollywood studio model that’s bust or just Sony’s way of running it? Just goes to show how grosses can hide what is really going on – it’s all about the bottom line people!
