  • The Truth About Emanuel didn't do so well at the box office

    Jump

  • Empty screenings are not unusual. I've been to a lot of movies where I'm the only one in there.

    In 2013 it was around $8. So for a $4044 take your looking at about 505 tickets sold. It's likely they probably got about 80-90% of this on the Friday and Saturday which is about 18-20 seats per theater per night for the opening.

    All that said, yea the numbers are low but it's not entirely on the movie itself, this is the effect of marketing and availability. We contrast this with something like 50 Shades of Grey which is lower rotten tomatoes and lower IMDB but pulled in about a half billion because they marketed the hell out of it.

  • Most smaller movies don't sell out a screening. With 11 screens probably only running for a week it wouldn't have any marketing. $4044 according to box office mojo so that seems about right.

  • This is a bit misleading, it was only in 11 theaters before going to streaming so it can't be compared with a standard wide release film. Like Bird Box was a massive hit for Netflix but you could say it only sold a few tickets (because it only appeared in a couple theatres)

  • Is there a source on this? Not that I don't believe it, I'm sure this is exactly what's going to happen, but if I bring it up in conversation saying "I saw it in a meme" will deflate the argument.

  • This will all get filtered out pretty quickly. The best way to hit this is with very authentic looking email. Wasting their time is the best recourse.

  • "Why isn't one of the most expensive to operate websites free?!"

    There's a reason there are zero actual competitors in this space (maybe TikTok but it's full of its own problems). Only a company as big as Google can afford to run at this scale. Feel free to add your business plan on how to make YouTube free without ads and without it shutting down in 3 months.
