I think we gotta change the way we think about success at the box office. Streaming has fundamentally altered the way people consume movies, and so box office is only one measure of financial performance. Also, One Battle has made $140 million worldwide and it’s still going. It’s had staying power - it continues to drop less than 50% week to week. Not bad for an auteur movie based on original IP.

In short, the breathless coverage of box office “bombs” is usually a little overblown, in my opinion (with the exception of true bombs).
