    Is that good? I’ve never heard of preview money before so I have no way of saying.

      Box office previews are the amount of ticket sales made before the movie officially releases. So it’s basically how much money it made from people pre-ordering tickets.

      It’s slightly underwhelming results, but it’s still good.

      The budget was $75 million, so it needs to make $187 million to break even (accounting for marketing costs and theaters taking their cut of the profits).
