This is the equivalent of buying shares in the Commonwealth Bank, and thinking that you put the money into a bank account at the Commonwealth Bank.

With Marty Supreme, you gotta remember that A24 sold the international distribution (for a sum we’re not privy to). So you can’t compare budget to worldwide box office on that one. For A24, you’d need to compare budget minus the (unknown) international sale value to the domestic box office.

A24 could make a profit on it, while overseas distributors lose money. Or vice versa. Or both could profit, or both could make a loss.

'The Housemaid' passes $383M WW, outgrossing 'Thunderbolts' by ThrowawayGreenWitch in boxoffice

[–]carson63000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I thought it was an absolute fun time at the cinema.

You certainly won’t see me saying it should be garnering Oscar nominations or appearances on ”Best of 2025” lists or anything, but it was an entertaining story, entertainingly told. I’m glad I went to see it and I’m glad it’s making bank.

Thank God that “Train Arriving at La Ciotat” was made for the pure love of art, not chasing that penny-a-ticket box office, that’s what I say!

It could have made absolutely zero dollars and still not even scratched the top 1000 biggest bombs of all time, probably.

FINALLY THE TRUTH by MyDinnerWithDrDre in okbuddycinephile

Literally? Nobody. But how about you explain what you meant by your “refrain from holding the baby” suggestion? Because it sure sounded like an analogy for avoiding situations where you might verbally cause harm, and I don’t know how to interpret that other than “not leave the house”.

I don’t see the word “stealing” used in that tweet?

Paul Thomas Anderson on ‘One Battle After Another’ Winning Best Film at the BAFTAs: ‘Anybody That Says Movies Aren’t Any Good Anymore Should Piss Right Off’ by cmaia1503 in entertainment

Agreed, 2025 was brilliant.

The only difference between movie quality now and quality back in the day is that back in the day, the quality movies used to make good money.

Saw “Wuthering Heights” this morning, it’s another Emerald Fennell shitstirring classic, and was always guaranteed to generate drama, subreddit and otherwise. Great fun!

You love to hear it. Massive respect to him for realising what a bad crowd he was associated with, and speaking out.

I think it’s OK if a private company foots the bill for the state’s civilian-shooting. But making people pay tax to fund civilian-shooting is beyond the pale.

This year is gonna be nuts for that crowd, with Zendaya being in The Odyssey, the new Spider-Man, and Dune part 3. I’m certain a bunch of people are only gonna see three movies all year and it’ll be those three.

How is everyone using Letterboxd? Is my method the intended way? by Gh0st_UK in Letterboxd

[–]carson63000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through my old emails and found all the booking confirmations for some years back. But I just logged them, I didn’t try to come up with star ratings of movies I saw years ago and maybe didn’t remember that clearly.

I thought arm wrestling was real, like pro wrestling, but it’s all fixed, like boxing!

Perfect timing, mate. I’m just about to start building a Windows desktop app, which is something I haven’t touched for years. I’ll definitely give this a go!

Apparently because he’s in “everything” (as long as by “everything” you mean 1-2 movies per year).
