The term "balance sheet" was wrong since none was presented in this video Instead it did have an income statement
Comment from : @danielellis4749

I think you can remove the "technically" from the title brbrThis is one of those few videos that actually aged like wine instead of milk

Comment from : @tonylee8905

Can’t actors sue to ge their hands on the actual costs if they feel they have been inflated?

Big media and Hollywood are absolutely evil
Comment from : @americansmark

So they committed corporate tax fraud? And everyone was just ok with it?
Comment from : @OmniscientOrangutan

I am just shocked that bananas cost that much
Comment from : @BigJohnM

what kind of bananas are you buying? 10 dollars for 1 banana is a fraud 😆
Comment from : @zaxel2167

"Profits are what fall out of the producer's pockets on the way to the bank" a Hollywood accountant told me back in the early 1980s
Comment from : @realtijuana5998

ironically Sir Alex Guinness, Obi Wan , received around 25 of a New hope royalties and did get paid, earning apparently $95 million, with his estate still pulling in money from it
Comment from : @davidrenton

Everyone saying its technically legal and no one talking about how scummy it is even if it is legal smh

Comment from : @MartinPittBradley

Who on Earth takes net profits nowadays? brFamous actors receive a tiny portion on ticket sales like 1 cent for every movie ticket sold
Comment from : @phatphan1403

I know they have never gotten a dime from me lol I refuse to watch any of the teen crap like Harry Potter, or the sparkly vampire crap lol
Comment from : @Redvines69

The strangest thing about this story, it that the actors still wants the net profit clause in their contract despite knowing this loophole 🤭
Comment from : @nawwk79

Man of Steel (2013) lost a ton of money, despite taking $668 million at the box office Most of it was paydays for people who weren't even involved in the movie, but were owed for salaries and gross points on previous Superman movies that never got made $70 million was shared between Tim Burton, Nic Cage, and Jon Peters
Comment from : @FozzyBBear

Wait what banana cost 10$
Comment from : @PakChoiTheMeowcat

Just shows what I've always know a good accountant can make a $100M profit into a $100M loss very easy on balance sheets Gotta love the LLC games that can be playedI seem to remember Enron got taken down by playing the corporate games similar to this So it has to be done carefully or you run afoul of the government and that's why you don't look at profits of Phoenix INC but the actual film Lawyers know how to play the games too
Comment from : @ronpeacock9939

At what point does this become money laundering, could this be argued as an attempt to evade taxes
Comment from : @michaelkirchner8379

That's so lame, everyoner scammers
Comment from : @TS_Mind_Swept

I'm going to guess it's tax evasion, now let's watch it;brEdit: Yup, it's evasion
Comment from : @ThePlayerOfGames

It really depends on what someone's contract says If your contracts says a percent of the gross, it doesn't matter If it is a percent of the profits, they all lose money
Comment from : @MYOB990

Class action lawsuit time
Comment from : @colinburke8389

I didn't watch the video but I assume it's because of the common practice of making net profits below zero by the movie industry which is only a technicality while it actually was profitable
Comment from : @tomlxyz

The most creative minds in Hollywood work in accounting
Comment from : @LRM12o8

Question: by now it seems like everyone's heard of Hollywood accounting, and knows not to take a percentage of the profit So why does Hollywood keep doing it? Is there still a significant amount of people who don't know? Or are there other reasons, like tax avoidance?
Comment from : @oharaandrew314

Doesn't WB have to pay taxes on the income they made off Phoenix Inc anyways?
Comment from : @JatnaRD

The video should be titled: How Harry Potter Movies “Lost” Money
Comment from : @scs8905

The ONLY way any of these movies could have lost money, is if a quarter fell-out of someone's pocket
