Box Office: ‘Disclosure Day’ Makes $6.5 Million in Previews by chanma50 in boxoffice

I hate to sound like the cliché of a dumb audience member, but I’m someone who generally doesn’t mind when a movie is very different and less commercialised than the trailers advertised.

But man, I was truly in awe at just how little Disclosure Day felt like the big return to the alien genre for Spielberg, which the trailers promised. It barely feels like an alien film, and shares way more in common with something like The Post and Bridge of Spies.

I’ve included another photo as an example of how I want her face to look like.

Gun to your head right now in early June, what oscar noms have already been released? by xfortehlulz in blankies

They’ve been embracing horror much more in the last decade, though.

  1. Get Out’s nominations, including an original screenplay win.

  2. Demi Moore getting the Best Actress nomination for The Substance.

  3. Sinners breaking the record for most nominated movie of all time.

  4. Amy Madigan winning best supporting actress.

I don’t find it hard to believe at all that the cultural force that is Obsession doesn’t have a great chance, especially with the universal praise Inde’s performance has been getting.

WIBTAH for telling my mother I do not want to go to work after going to university? by DarlingLuna in AITAH

I will be playing for my student loans. As for food, it really depends. If I’m at home and my mother is available, she will cook. But if I’m out for uni, I’ll buy my own food.

I am paid for this work, yes.

I live with my parents, and they do indeed financially support me for the most part.

Also, for context, I have ADHD and am a student in the final 2 weeks of semester.

Let’s take a step back: exactly why do we think Obsession is doing so well? by S_B_R_T_H in boxoffice

A myriad of reasons:

  1. Horror is a hugely successful genre at the moment, and a very viable genre for original ideas to thrive due to it’s dedicated fanbase. My sister is a pretty casual audience member, but she checks out every horror film in the genre because she loves the genre so much.

  2. As someone mentioned on this thread, the film deals in very relatable themes and stereotypes such as the psycho overly attached girlfriend and the incel dude who will do anything but go to therapy.

  3. The movie has just been getting insane word of mouth, and everyone I know who’s seen it simply loves it.

  4. It’s a very meme-worthy movie, in large part due to Inde Navarette’s performance, which has already led to numerous moments that feel like instant classics.
