That one is for the oscars, box office numbers wont matter much and they still could get a good one.

Really exited about it.

Surprised The Long Walk did poorly. Guess not everyone likes these movies. I no longer have my finger on the pulse of pop culture!

Materialists got 101 million globally.

Very fucking cool. I think its budget was around 20 million so it really found its audience.

Markiplier's 'Iron Lung' Tops Friday Box Office, Quadruples Budget

YouTube creator Markiplier wrote, directed, starred in, and self-financed 'Iron Lung,' adapting the tense submarine horror game set in a blood ocean on a dead moon. The film, released January 30 on a budget under $3 million, earned $3.5 million from Thursday previews and $8.9 million to $9 million Friday, hitting No. 1 domestically with two-day totals over $12 million. Weekend projections reach $15 million to $17 million, while audiences give it 92% to 95% approval for its creeping tension, despite mixed critic reviews.

Sam Raimi's Send Help ended up winning the weekend with $20M to Iron Lung's $17.8M.

And it's really great so I hope it gets good word of mouth and has some staying power. I want more movies like Send Help in the cinema

Demographics for tickets sold were 70+% older Conservative White Women. Mostly down south. Makes sense. $7 mill is pretty good for a doc. I imagine it will crater next week.

:haha:

The doc had a budget of 40 million, and it seems 30 of those million were direct payments to Trump because of ¨legal fees¨ or something.
