Brazen Media Deny Real Reasons for ‘Dial of Destiny’s’ Failure

It’s all but official. “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny” will put Disney in the red.

Again.

The fifth and presumably final film in the iconic saga opened to a weak $60 million at the U.S. box office. Those numbers would be withering for most would-be blockbusters, witness fiscal failures like “The Flash” ($55 million) and “Black Adam” ($67 million).

“Dial of Destiny” arrives with a bloated $295 million budget (or worse) plus millions in P&A. That means it’ll take a cinematic miracle for “Dial of Destiny” to break even.
