Can you do a video on Buffy the vampire please

For 10.000$ you could buy a car AND a small home/apartment in 1955....today for 115.000$ you could barely buy either of them...today this amount is sadly not much! You can make a living for 2 yrs before it´s gone!

The topic of your video actually happens a lot in real life, even as early as January 1988 when Return of the Living Dead 2 came out and it's a really fun zombie movie, even like it more then the first movie, and a movie called For Keeps came out during the same time and somehow made more money then ROTLD 2. For Keeps is about a teenage girl who got pregnant and is trying to decide if she should keep it or not, yes that movie somehow made more money then the really fun Return of the Living Dead 2. I saw Scott Pilgrim vs. the World in the theater even though it did badly. Some recent examples, the movie Dredd somehow did badly when it first came out. I was one of the few lucky people who got to see it in 3D, and combines that with watching a really awesome action movie makes it a theater expereince worth paying for. I think a really sad example is the 2017 Power Rangers movie(I blame Disney for this because of Beauty and the Beast), it is a good movie that shows what a serious grounded remake of the first season of Power Rangers would be like, and the reason why I call it's box office failure sad because before the movie was released they had plans on what the sequel would be like. When the movie came out and saw the poor box office they scrapped the sequel plans.

The movie that I think is the absolute best movie I’ve seen in 15 years is ‘the girl in the spider’s Web.’ I’ve seen it 31 times since it came out in 2018. It stars claire foy of the Crown. It only made $35 million on a $43 million budget. I think it flopped because people were expecting Daniel Craig to reprise his role. The information I heard was they tried for seven years to get another movie made and because the 2011 movie that proceeded it under performed, they decided to go in another direction. I’m glad they did because I absolutely despised the 2011 movie the girl in the Dragon tattoo remake. I do not know Rooney Mara or her work and Daniel Craig had too much screen time. After watching that movie, my thought was it should’ve been called James Bond the journalist. I hated that movie so much that I forgot that I had even seen it. I tried to watch it again recently, but it was so horrible at the 20 minute mark. I just turned it off and swore never to watch it again.

Challengers was a massive flop. Fall guy was designed to generate subs not to be a good movie.

That too

Right! What I need are box office numbers based on number of views. Not money!

Exact same situation with video games right now. No one asked for video games to start costing $100+ million to make and now the big companies have been shutting down their smaller studios under their umbrella to make up for how much money they've lost.

@@purelysmetalnightcore that's not why they're shutting them down

Yeah, stop valuating movie with capitalism, like Avatar made a billion bucks, but barely left a cultural impact, like are people already forgetting the sequel?

Can’t agree more! I thought that it was actually Netflix movie, something like “let’s cast a bunch of big names in mediocre action flick so that more people buy subscription”

Yep, it looked exactly like the grey man that gosling also did. Which was awful

ugh yes trailers are getting worse and worse it's the reason I avoided poor things I found it so cringe but it won oscars so what do I know

Same. After watching the trailer, I felt like I knew the whole movie already. The suspension of disbelief for the plot to work wasn't working, and none of the jokes landed for me. The whole production looked just... mid and the story like action movie cliché.

I didn't even see trailers for this movie! I saw exactly one (1) ad for that, which I caught on the Deadpool and Wolverine trailer I watched but basically crickets otherwise.

Exactly! Hence why I'm saving theatre for some sort of a spectacle that is best enjoyed on a big screen (e.g. Dune, Blade Runner, etc ). A comedy can be easily watched on a phone screen and still be enjoyable

I know not many can but thts why I go on Tues nights. $7 tues.

This exactly

Either you both got a drink and popcorn and spent $15 each, or you're overexaggerating. Large drink is $8-$12. Large popcorn is $9-12.

@@baylithe not at the theatre near my college. Not every theatre has the same prices

I work at a movie theater and I agree, the prices are ridiculous. 2 people come in to watch a movie and it’s 9$ per ticket + our over priced concessions we have which makes it all the more worst. I’d argue it’s also the amount of time certain movies spend in theaters, I remember how Pricilla was in theaters for like 2 days then it was insta pulled to streaming.

Occum’s Razor would say the biggest problem is that Hollywood is unable to speak to younger audiences. If you look at indie animated shows on KZfaq like The Amazing Digital Circus, Hazbin Hotel, etc, they’re an enormous far cry from the sensibilities which Hollywood continually panders to.

Also HBO Max released it same day alongside it coming out in the peak of covid restrictions

The Batman made 500 million though.

​@@MrBazBakepeople, mostly DC fans, already knew it was an Elseworlds story disconnected to the DCEU and as previously mentioned, The Suicide Squad came out on streaming the same day on theatres.

And even the MCU lost some trust because 1) there seem to be an overflow and 2) because Disney was pumping them out so quick, there was a loss of quality.

Also R ratings typically do not rake in as much money

The swift death of the DVD market, thanks to streaming services, did way more damage than most people acknowledge. It's why Hollywood is all in on blockbusters over mid-tier movies, which end up being fodder for streaming, since they don't make money in theaters. I used to go on DVD spending sprees every Christmas season at Best Buy to gift people multiple movies, and to catch up or collect movies that I liked or were interested in. Hell, that's the only reason I watched Edge of Tomorrow during COVID, since I bought a copy years ago. Sadly, after 2020, Best Buy no longer sold DVDs, aside from new releases. This is going to have massive consequences down the line. Hell, it's causing problems since COVID restrictions lifted.

I was coming on here to mention her too!

I remember hearing that Godzilla: King of the Monsters didn't do amazing in the box office - it made a profit but not as much as the studio was expecting - but DVD sales for it were massive. I got a DVD myself. The last 2 movies with Kong have been doing well on their own which is good, but it's so stupid that studios have just forgotten that DVDs are cheap to produce and people absolutely still want them. I saw a video recently about how game developers are making physical game sales look a lot smaller than they really are because of how they group every video game, and DLC, and microtransaction purchase in a singular metric instead of breaking them up. I can't imagine game cartridges and boxes are actually that expensive to produce, especially nowadays when guide books and pamphlets that used to come with games don't exist anymore. It's why new reports have shown that people are not only watching more of older TV shows, but also going back and playing older games more often.

DVD and VHS!

That is another point. Movies executives expect to gross all the money of the movie in wide release in theaters because physical media is dying or dead. Also you had to wait like a year to watch a movie on HBO after it was released in theaters now you just have to wait for like three months or less to catch it in a streaming service. There not incentive to watch it in a movie theater.

I never went to see it because I despise Tom Cruise with a passion but I am going to watch it now.

@@edithnackers7127 yeah, I get that. I don't like him as a person either. But I love Emily Blunt! And she's well worth watching in this.

Yeah people were disappointed in Oblivion and figured it was a repeat of that, when it turned out to be one of the best sci-fi action movies ever. Shame.

one of my favorite movies ever

Such a great movie in spite of Tom Cruise. Emily Blunt is a bad ass in it and Paxton’s performance is so good. Edge of Tomorrow is such a bland title, sounds like an old school soap opera. “Live, Die, Repeat” would have been a much better title.

Remember when we only had one or two blockbuster movies per year and small budgets movies could peacefully breathe without being suffocate by blockbuster expectations every week?

Plenty of great movies with that budget that flopped at the box office. Just look at Children of Men for example. Or the Northman from this list.

You have been lied to son

I don't get this critique. "Hollywood" has been making great movies in that budget, and below. Arguably, that's where most of the great movies lie since those teams have to be way more conscious with their budgets. Let's not kid ourselves. This one's on the audiences.

@@mickeycoolmouse the thing is, that you get 3 or 4 over the top budget every single month and most of us cannot go to the movie theater weekly, the tickets are expensive. So, we make choices. Which movie do we go to see to the theater and which movie we wait for the streaming release.

Sounds like Iger would do that.

@@AMAubertwhile I agree, does sound like an Iger move, he wasn’t president at Disney yet. That mishap falls under Michael Eisner. It was one of many that happened towards the end of his tenure.

That story can’t be true because the budget was $140 million which made it the most expensive animated movie at the time. They wouldn’t invest that amount of money into a planned flop.

That's Horrible

@@MrDeuce006 Disney immediately reduced their fourth quarter earnings only a few days after the film came out, declaring that they must take a writeoff of $74 million after it predictably underperformed at the box office which would give them a reason to cut costs after they conveniently reshuffled their board so they can reorganize the company. Eisner's management at the time planned this well in advance.

Love this movie, breaks my heart that it flopped and sadly we won't get any fallow up

I really enjoyed the watch, but I doubted just a liiiittle that a Russian operative would be that ingénu when it came to attractive women. But it's definitely a movie I'd rewatch, contrary to Suicide Squad that made me fall asleep after the fun scenes with Harley Quinn

Yes!! I was fortunate of having gone to see it in theaters in 2015 and I still wonder why they never made any sequels to this day. Henry Cavill and Alicia vikander deserve so much more

Right

I was going to say the same thing, but I think it's original ENOUGH. The movie isn't nostalgia bait for the 5 people who saw the show and is most certainly not beholden to the source material, and none of the marketing even references that the original show even existed. Yes, it's a remake, but I think it gets a pass because it wasn't relying on the fact it was a remake to make money

I am chronically online and didn't know about the fall guy until this video

So true! If it wasn’t for my family watching live sports games on tv I would’ve never even seen ads for Fall Guy. I didn’t even know the movie came out already! I do want to see it but I feel sad that it’s already flopping

And most people pay to skip ads on streaming. Just so many options to watch without ads

You make a good point! I was aware of the fall guy existing but I had no idea when it would come out. I agree with the algorithm bubbles thing and I'll add that they're relying way too much on those algorithms and not doing enough as far as marketing. I work with digital marketing so I do know exactly how we target people. And the truth is, studios haven't been able to replicate the widespread nature of TV ads. The last great marketing campaign I've seen was Barbie.

not to mention that every thing is so oversaturated in general.

And even if we wanted to: we are financially unable to. Matinees don't exist for all practical purposes, either, which was how my family ever got to see anything in theaters at all, when tickets could be bought for a movie before 5:30 PM for $4 and a family of four would still have money for a large tub of popcorn. Nowadays, even the popcorn by itself is $7. Unless it's an actual event movie like Oppenheimer, most people are just gonna wait for it to hit streaming in four to six weeks.

@@KariIzumi1 *This.* We're going into a really hard time financially, and fact of the matter is, people are going to prioritize other things over entertainment. Because how can you enjoy entertainment when you don't have food on the table?

So true - even if i want to see multiple movies i usually only choose one even if multiple are very good

I’m noticing a lot of these films are the sort of thing that very specifically my mum would put on when her adult children are visiting and we don’t have any suggestions of what to put on. Audience intelligence is rising with films and people are not only more broke but becoming more deliberately selective with the films they choose to see. I’m noticing quickly a lot of the films listed have names or cast, properties, we’d all be familiar with but nothing outstanding in its premise to make me wanna spend money or really have any excitement for it. I feel like a lot of these films have big budgets riding on the idea that enough general audiences will go see it because it’s crowd pleasing and generally good quality. And for better or worse that’s just not how we work as an audience anymore. As far as films from this list go The Northman is really the only one I’d take personal interest in that I could’ve personally at an adult age chosen to go see. And the only one I’ve actually seen is Edge of Tomorrow and i found it tedious and didn’t enjoy it.

legit Oscar winner lol

Sounds more like an economic problem rather than a movie problem 😬

@@hata6290 because it is. If the people don't have the money to go to see every single wannabe blockbuster every single week, they are going to make choices and those choices are going to affect some of these movies.

In the past movie theaters actually did better during recessions, but that was before theaters decided to change their marketing from "working man's entertainment" to "'luxury' experience where you pay $30 for chicken tenders."

​@@sadhydra i swear. during these dreadful times, cinemas could make so much more money if they simply stopped being so obnoxious and expensive.

Expensive not spensive

it was a flop then and would be boycotted and worse today. you're expected to simpathise with someone that kills children to gain their freedom. most ppl aren't gonna root for that, then ad current events to it. I'm glad the film isn't bashed but it doesn't need the attention right now.

It was a poor remake of the ten commandments...that everyone had seen. It added nothing to the story

I enjoyed watching it as a kid, but it has some pretty messed up religious messages in it. Don't agree with the big boss man in the sky? There goes your first born. Sorry Billy. I know you did nothing wrong, but you're in hell now cuzz your dad didn't respect the big sky boss.

@@prasannasurange It is very different from the 10 commandments

Agree. The music from that movie changed my life

I always knew him as the moon from Hour of Poop's videos

One of my all-time favorite actors 👍👍👍

You forgot The Island of Lost Souls.

I mean, everything is so fucking expensive nowadays. Who has the money to go to the cinema once a week? 🤷🏼‍♀️

All fair points. Also let's not pretend that these mega corporations struggle

I’m also just tired period. I want to see all of these movies. I’ve seen some already, but it’s gotten to the point where I just want to get home and sleep. I just don’t watch most movies during opening weekend because some weekends are ones where I’m doing nothing so I can prepare for another tiring week in late-stage capitalism.

@@Mimi-sg6fe So true! Especially when I can enjoy entire TV shows on streaming for a monthly subscription that costs less than a single movie ticket - WITHOUT food nor drinks.

It's not our responsibility to keep these shows/ movies afloat it's the people doing it. They're unoriginal and overdone, overpriced, the actors can't act anymore, and people can't write either.

Abigail was so much fun too.

​@@katherinealvarez9216Facts, in my opinion it's still the funnest movie I've watched this year so far

@@roderick8167 Roderick

I haven't seen anything about it's connection to the series (it had a different name in my country) before I watched it and just realized in the middle of the film that he is a stuntman named Colt Seavers... That and the actors at the end where a very nice surprise!

Thank you for the info! Hoping more people see this (and in going to the movies asap to see Fall guy on the recommendation!)

I loved the show too and I was really irritated to hear it being praised as an "original idea." The song was great. I know it in French because I first saw the series dubbed, and in English because I rewatched all the episodes I could see in English.

I haven't seen the show, but I know about it as some of the marketing for the movie was based on it, that's how I found out. Without seeing series I knew about cameos by the heros from the show, they stick out like sore thumb. I'm shocked that you missed it

My mom knew!

yeah, I highly recommend seeing it in 3D

Their rendition of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" is a masterpiece.

Kubo was incredible, just incredible

I think part of the problem with Kubo is that it's hard to recommend to people. It's a bit of a hard sell for people who only want their kids watching Minions and princesses. I remember enjoying the ride until the ending. In retrospect, I appreciate what it was going for based on the creator interviews... but then you have the dual problem of the movie not managing to get the metaphor across, and the metaphor also being a bummer. A friend and I both saw it independently and actively decided against recommending it to one another for the same reasons.

I accidentally had too many edibles when I saw this movie lol I had to watch it again later, I wasn't sure if what I saw actually happened!

From the same time period Heathers also had a similar fate. But when you think about it they're both kind of niche. Not everyone's cup of tea. And that's the marker of a box office success, something that is widely palatable.

It doesn’t piss me off because at least that made its money back and got its flowers eventually.

The trailers for that didn't give a good idea what this movie's plot was supposed to be, so most people didn't go watch it because they couldn't wrap their minds what it was supposed to be about. Its funny, I was one of the few that actually saw this in the cinema when it was first showed, and the theater was packed, but when I talked to people at school about this movie the next day, everyone i talked to said they weren't interested to go see it.

It’s not really a failure tho. It’s a small film that made a decent profit. It’s not like Heathers, Blade Runner or The Burning which barely made a profit at all. I’m pretty sure that The Burning and Blade Runner only made money because of their Japanese releases.

it didn't fail though - look at its box office standings , it was top five for a few weeks. It was also up against Fatal Attraction (popular at the time), a Kirk Cameron family movie (he was at his peak back then), and Dirty Dancing was still in theaters.

That video would make a Quinton Reviews video look like Vine in comparison ☠️😭

i saw those in theatres multiple times as a kid so it was shocking to hear how they flopped so hard!!!

Same! I'm making my husband find both as we speak.

100%!! So good!

Same! Can't believe it was a flop then

I was 12 when Treasure Planet came out. I loved the hell out of it, I think that I convinced both my parents to see it with me (they were divorced) and then went with a friend. I never understood why it did so poorly. I am also someone who loves mashups of different things for alternative timelines, like the whole steampunk aesthetic and the vintage-nuclear future of Fallout. Treasure Planet was "steampunk in space" and I was IN FOR IT

this makes so much sense. theres been a bunch of movies i was hyped to see in theatres because i thought they were coming out later when they were already in theatres

Coincidentally, I've been seeing ads for what looks like a very cute movie (and funny, which was more shocking as Will Ferrell was starring in it) called _Youre Cordially Invited_ for Amazon Prime. It's release date? January 30th, 2025 It's just.....very odd to me that they'd start a ad campaign this far out in advance.

I remember hearing about Challengers (Zendaya movie) a while ago, so when I saw a video about it this week, I was like, that movie from last year? But it was JUST released. So, yeah, completely agree. They hype things up too far in advance. My attention span is not that long anymore.

This! I feel like movie ads don't reach me that well or at the correct time. I got a bunch on Abigail ads in like February and totally forgot that it's out now. And this has been happening for a while. I completely missed that one of the Star Wars sequels had come out like almost a year prior, because there was so much production hype, that I feel like I missed the actual ads for the movie.

THIS!! I remember hearing NOTHING about Bullet Train until the week of release. My dad saw the trailer on TV and wanted to see it. We planned it all out and all of us were able to go the 2nd weekend. The same thing happened with the newest Planet of the Apes. My mom saw the trailer on Peacock about 2 weeks before release. We were able to go opening weekend. My sister saw The Fall Guy trailers on Hulu(?) maybe a month before release. The release date was too far away so we decided to make plans later and never actually did. Lol. We did eventually see it but 2 weeks is probably the sweet spot. My brother wants to see Deadpool & Wolverine so let's hope we get to see it in theaters whenever that releases.

Yep if a movie flops in theaters these days then that's pretty much a killshot on said movie , you can't count on DVD sales to save the movie anymore

jennifer's body was ahead of its time, it wasn't well received back then

@@roderick8167 Some movies were hits without even been released because the streaming revenues alone made it a hit. And for some producer streaming is like kicking out the middle man and collecting the entirety of the revenue.

Oh my Goodness, Thank you sooo much!!

Doctor Sleep was good, both hubs and myself watched it (and he hates horror movies) and we LOVED Kubo and the two strings. We saw it in the theater, and we own it and watch it sometimes at home. Wonderful story, spectacular visuals!

There’s quite a few reasons why The Thing failed in my view. It was at the peak of the slasher genre, so people were either going to see Friday the 13th or another slasher like House on Sorority Row. You also had Poltergeist which was the big horror film of the year overshadowing, mixed with ET having a very opposite philosophy. Speaking of philosophy, The Thing was a very dark film which was a large contrast to what people wanted from a film in the early 80s, another reason why Blade Runner failed. And the people left that might be interested in a high quality horror film, they saw that the critic reviews were not very high so decided to skip the movie. So all things considered it’s surprising that it even made as much money as it did

When I think of movies that I love but flopped the thing always comes up

I think a lot of people skipped it in the theater to protest some stuff Hasbro was doing with D&d right before it was released.

@@stacylgh Yeah, Hasbro pissing off their main demographic of DnD players right before the release of Honor Among Thieves was certainly a choice. It is also a shame, cause the movie is delightful and I want a sequel so bad.

Yeah that DND movie was great and this is coming from someone that's never played anything to do with DND before

Step 3 of the "Four steps for Ideological subversion" (Yuri Bezmenov, Former KGB Propaganda Agent, 1985) Crisis-This is a major step lasting up to six weeks and involves a revolutionary change of power. This is where a cataclysmic event (false flag event, civil war, invasion) upsets and divides the country thereby creating panic among the citizens. To Americans, symptoms would include circumventing the Constitution (re: Use "privately owned" social media sites to restrict free speech/First Amendment rights) and altering the checks and balances of government, and possible martial law. Creation of economic, financial and national security crisis. Also includes social crisis and a breakdown of previously self-evident restrictions on moral behavior. The Cloward-Piven approach is used to create more takers than producers (hence the push for open borders and lax immigration policies, along with giving those immigrants free handouts that could otherwise be given to natural born citizens in need). The crisis produces benevolent leaders who will promise to deliver things to meet people's needs through “hope and change” (ie: Hitler’s rise to power amidst a disenfranchised German population reeling from the effects of WW1) through social and economic justice. *False illusion that the situation is under control if strategic directions are followed-Bailouts, regulations of industry and so forth.* To "Make America Great Again", a revolutionary change of power is required that will remove Liberal Democrats from positions of power and influence in the Media, Academia, Corporations, Politics and Art/Entertainment. Whether by "election" or coup de tat, DJT is going to return to the White House to lead the revolution. This is how they will do it: (From US Public Law One Zero Two dash One Four) Whereas Congress recognizes *the historical tradition of ethical values and principles which are the basis of civilized society and upon which our, great Nation was founded;* Whereas *these ethical values and principles have been the bedrock of society from the dawn of civilization, when they were known as the Seven Noa/hide Laws;* Whereas *without these ethical values and principles the edifice of civilization stands in serious peril of returning to chaos; Whereas society is profoundly concerned with the recent weakening of these principles that has resulted in crises that beleaguer and threaten the fabric of civilized society;* Whereas the justified preoccupation with these crises must not let the citizens of this Nation lose sight of their responsibility to transmit these historical ethical values from our distinguished past to the generations of the future; Whereas the Lubavitch movement has fostered and promoted these ethical values and principles throughout the world; Whereas Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, leader of the Lubavitch movement, is universally respected and revered and his eighty-ninth birthday falls on March 26, 1991: Whereas in tribute to this great spiritual leader, “the rebbe”, this, his ninetieth year will be seen as one of “education and giving”, the year in which we turn to education and charity to *return the world to the moral and ethical values contained in the Seven Noa/hide Laws* The following is a partial listing of the Noa/hide Laws as derived. Three of these Laws require the death penalty by guillotine when broken: Blasphemy, Idolatry and Sexual Immorality. (Note: Unlike in the Old and New Testament teaching “By the mouth of two or more witnesses..”, these Laws only require one accuser for the accused to be brought to the courts and condemned.) Idolatry: Must worship God alone. Must not worship any man (ie: Jesus) as God. No idols or statues. Do not bow to idols or statues. Do not offer sacrifices to idols or statues. Blasphemy: Do not curse God. Do not use God's name in vain. Worship the true God alone, do not worship false gods. (Worshiping Jesus is also seen as blasphemy.) Murder: Against murdering anyone, self defense is permitted. Mass murderers will be given the death penalty. (Abortion is classified as mass murder.) *Theft--Do not:* (I would have to assume "cooking the books" to overinflate production budgets and give stipends to certain people would be included in one of these categories.) Steal. Rob. *Overcharge* -Have you noticed how many of today’s large corporations seem to be pushing the “progressive” message about “fairness, PRIDE, tolerance, inclusion, diversity, equity” while also overcharging for their products? And how many of these corporations are known to overwork and underpay their workers, reaping huge profits for themselves as they commit wage theft? Kidnap. Move a landmark. (Probably not good for BLM/Antifa activists who tear down historical landmarks.) *Do not use false weights and measurements.* Do not covet. (I would think this applies to Socialists who believe they should receive the benefits of other people's work.) Sexual Immorality--No: Bestiality Incest Homosexuality * The homosexuals have been promised increased rights and privileges, tolerance and inclusion, thinking they are being “normalized” in our society. They have been manipulated into exposing themselves publicly for elimination. The Government now has marriage records, phone and text records (Patriot Act) and online records (Earn It bill) which will be used against them. Prevention of animal cruelty. Do not eat an animal while it is still alive. Do not eat flesh of animal torn apart by a wild animal *Justice Law - Against* *Bribery* *Favoritism* -Although called the “Equal Opportunity Act”, what we have seen are people being hired or promoted not for their talents, skills and education, but based on the color of their skin, gender and sexual orientation (even if they are not qualified for the job or promotion), otherwise known as “intersectionality”. Is this “equality”, or favoritism? (I suppose this could also apply to the nepotism we see in Hollywood/Entertainment.) Condemning the innocent Must administer the death penalty Treat people equally before the law While this is going to end badly for the US, I should warn you that it will be even worse for the rest of the world when they finally adopt the One World Communist Order where everyone is equally poor except for the elite. (All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others. If you live outside of the US, after the US is destroyed, inflation will be worse than you ever imagined. It will cost you a day's pay just to buy two small loaves of bread.)

Take say 2008: Dark Knight, Iron Man, Indy Jones Fan Fiction, Hanncock, Quantuam of Solence, Naria: Prince Caspian, Get Smart, National Treasure 2, Vantage Point, Saw V, Rambo, X-Files 7 years too late sequel; this is listing by boxofficemojo box office and I might be forgetting some; or about 1 a month. since the Pandemic: Dune 1, The Batman, Top Gun 2, Saw X, Dune 2 5 movies in 4 years; there were months I might see 5 movies in theaters before.

"concessions"?

@@thichinhphan4010 'Concessions' is the term for food/drink sold at venues such as movie theaters. So popcorn, nachos, Icees, etc. The term derives from the name for the contracts, known as 'concessions', that are made with third-party vendors which allow them to sell food/drink on the premises.

I’m glad you mentioned that in the comments. Very obvious flub up from Ninja if he did that bit of research and having seen the film, would know it’s an adaptation from that obvious cameo… 😆😆😆

@@theprowler18 And from the song.

Cult classic are like that. You can't really tell when something will be one, just kind of becomes on on its own

@@devonmunn5728 im glad it became one, bc it was often on tv; I saw this as a child and countless times after

Most of the time, movies become popular due to home releases on VHS/DVD or reruns on television. Nowadays, streaming services often fulfill that role.

@@royalxprincessbaka6875 That does remind me of how not long ago when the film Splice was added to Netflix and a bunch of people were watching it for the first time (even Amanda The Jedi and Kennie J.D. did videos on it, the latter even having seen the film when it was in theaters when it came out but did her video on it when people started talking about it)

I can, its the type of *GREAT* movie that can get lost in theaters, also look at what was out its release week. Here was the top 10 the week of Release: 1. Timecop (JCVD movie back when he was an A List) 2. Terminal Velocity (action movie about rescuing people mountain climbing, Chris O'Donald staring when he was near A-List) 3. Forrest Gump 4. Quiz Show 5. Clear and Present Danger 6. Natural Born Killers 7. The Mask 8. True Lies That is a STACKED week for any movie to try and break into.

How many groceries

@@hata6290 enough to sustain me for a week at least

With food prices now, that wouldn't be a lot of groceries.

One pack of eggs

yup, going to the movies is very expensive in europe as well, I paid around 21$ to see "fall guy" on a regular night.. was worth it!

I know, even in this video he shows clips from the movie, but it doesn't make the list. It's a film me and my mates often mention as being great and such a shame it didn't get a sequel

The world isn’t complaining on only the vocal minority of cinephiles.

Here in Germany this movie is shown every christmas for the past 40 - 45 years. I watch it every year. 😃

Flights often carry this movie around the end of year, which is why I've watched it, even though I'm not from North America. As someone who struggled with depression myself after I became unemployed in the pandemic, I didn't expect an old black and white film to hit so deeply!

It's absolutely a Christmas classic in Italy as well so not sure about it being so obscure outside the US haha

I feel like everyone knows this movie outside America

I’m From Mexico and everybody knows about it thanks to the countless parodies in tv shows (like rugrats)

I loved Lisa Frankenstein I even drew some iconic outfits/scenes and I am hopping to do more.

I couldn’t decide if I wanted to see it or not. But I think you sort of answered your own questions a bit. You saw it on Valentine’s Day cause it’s a Rom-com. Some of your main reasons for seeing it were “cause that’s what your sort of meant to do on that day and it fit the description”. I mean this with 0 offence, each to their own, but that’s a very old school mind set. I don’t think I’ve ever had my husband watch a Rom-com cause it’s date night. Our last cinema trip was Easter. We skipped the chocolate eggs and instead split the cost of 2 large drinks and 2 large popcorn going to see Godzilla 😂. And last time we sat down to really watch a film together we put on Train to Busan cause we really get into it and have a good time with it. I think old school to watch romance because you’re doing romance. We do romance by cheering on big lizards together I guess 😂.

Rom-coms are also the type of movies easy for streaming services to crank out. Can be pretty formulaic, don't need a big budget, being average is typically good enough. So plenty of out of theater competition.

😛 sO 😜 QuiRkY 😝

@@shannonceleste5557 can’t tell if that was at me for watching Godzilla instead of rom-com on date night. If it was I wouldn’t call it quirky, more generational turnover.

Not to mention Cloud Atlas, the Wachowski's sisters misunderstood masterpiece!

Yes I love both speed racer and cloud atlas definetly the watchkowski’s finest movies!! But both huge flops.

Couldn't agree more, the marketing was everywhere but it looks so empty, I never had any interest in the movie

@@Awomanontheinternetempty is a good word - the trailer sounded WAY too much like the movie was just trying to tick boxes for specific audiences, and the jokes in the trailer were so dumb I decided not to watch…

Trailers were indeed incredibly generic. I went to see it because I love Ryan Gosling (especially in more comedic roles like the Nice Guys) but yeah it didn’t look any better than the average shitty Ryan Reynolds Netflix movie. Part of their ad campaign focused on the stunts which I thought was cool but that should’ve been a much bigger focus in trailers imo bc of how large a role it plays in the movie, but the trailers I saw in theater previews or on KZfaq didn’t mention that stuff at all

I think we're at a point we're average cinema goers don't care for stunt or action movies they seem to fading out which really sucks

Northman was kind of meh in my memory.

dude is young

I did end up adding the original show with Lee Majors on my watchlist

​@@Nick-md9wlbut could've easily checked it, that's the thing.

When I first heard of Fall Guy, I thought it was based on the video game.

people don't appreciate good old cinema anymore...

Very, VERY good movies 🍿

ah I loved both of those! El Royale is an absolute banger.

soho SUCKED. Edgar’s worst film

When I first saw last night in soho I couldn't believe that it could flop. Now i regret that I didn't watch it in the theater😔.

If they had just released it at a better time I'm sure it would have been appreciated.

Yeah,they never cared about the film, they just used it as the carrot to get the dude to do the other two movies Disney was hyping (one of which being Hercules, which also underperformed)

Don't translate... भवतः हृदयस्य धड़कनं कतिपयेषु घण्टेषु स्थगयिष्यति, अस्य शापस्य मुक्तिं प्राप्तुं एकमात्रं मार्ग मम चैनलस्य सदस्यतां कुर्वन्तु .,

real it's why I didn't care to see doctor sleep like how will anything top the original this goes to all the sequel and prequel plague going on rn

​@@maki55556It doesn't have to be better than the original to be good though

Yeah, I avoided it because I thought it was just another unnecessary sequel to a famous movie. I’m aware that it’s based on a book, but that too could’ve been a cash in

Funny enough they did make a squeal to 2001 in 1984; it was called "2010: The Year We Make Contact". It made $40.4 million on a $28 million budget. It is ok but nowhere near as good as the original. There may be something to modern audiences having higher expectations for squeals or holding works in higher regard than they did in the past.

Jacob was so damn good in that scene!

She's a really sweet person. But I think the movie bombed because of the repeated child murder.

@aliciabell6688 not even. Some people felt uncomfortable, but that didn't stop those same people from enjoying the movie. It had nothing to do with the film bombing.

@@THEMAST3RARTISAN I'm pretty sure that many people would see an action movie with some horror elements, but draw the line at excessive gore and violence, especially against children.

@cosimariemer9243 except for the fact that nobody even knew this scene was in Doctor Sleep prior to the release, so how could it have impacted the box office numbers? Make it make sense. The video perfectly explains why the movie didn't do well in theaters. Doctor Sleep isn't even that big of a gory movie and if what your saying holds even a little bit of water, then how do you explain the box office success of IT Chapter one which includes gore and violence against children?

impressively stupid. and the heads that make these decisions never get pay cuts.

I will never understand why anybody likes that movie Knives out. It is such a mediocre film, and it will never hold up. Blade Runner 2049 will become a cult classic because of the director Dennis. The guy who did Dune and other masterpieces like Arrival.

Knives Out is FUN! That’s why I liked it, it felt like I was reading an old murder mystery

SAME

I thought Treasure Planet would never get the recognition it deserves. 🥲

Also, same. I felt seen lol. Kubo too.

It's the great disadvantage that the physical format of DVD and Blu-ray has been relegated in favor of streaming. Many films that failed at the box office were hugely successful in the domestic format, something that is no longer possible today.

I think it's more of a thing that you can't really tell when something will be a cult classic in the moment. I would consider Jennifer's Body to be a recent cult classic cause when it came out back in 2009 it received middling to negative reviews, especially due to misleading marketing, but now it's being regarded as a cult classic

@@devonmunn5728 For sure, I would've never expected Jennifer's body to get popular so long after the fact (I think I got popular around 2014) but god I'm glad it did since it's amazing

Then they should stop giving crap that would be 'cult classics' 250m+ budgets.

Jennifer’s Body and Iron Giant are underrated

yeah, in german it was called "Ein Colt für alle Fälle", I didn't get it at first until the caracter in the movie is introduced as "Colt"😅 also in the post credit scene , the original actors have a cameo

Yes, that movie is way more enjoyable than the new empire and GxK or the whole Monsterverse ( except for Skull Island)

That's because Japanese Studios pay their employees peanuts. It's not "Better Management of Money", it's "Treat Employees like Slaves".

Gossip Girl reboot Just kidding, the OA

Funny enough, movies actually used to _stay_ in theaters for a while too. If one lived in a moderately sized city, you may be lucky enough to have the big theater where all the new releases went a a second or third one where they got sent to after six weeks if it wasnt a huge blockbuster but was doing okay and you could catch it for a cheaper price if you missed out. But you're right that in the early days of home releases, it could be upwards of a year between theatrical debut and release to VHS. That turned around in the late 90s where it was still four to six month wait. I think the biggest incentive for people buying media now is the fact that there's no trust that a studio won't scuttle a movie or TV show forever just because they decide to cancel it over arbitrary numbers and figures that they still don't share with us. People were sold on streaming because it was all the media right at our fingertips but the studios haven't kept up with their end of the bargain. I won't buy everything on Blu Ray but I do invest in the things I absolutely love. Speaking of which, I got a gift card at work that I realized I could use to buy _Grease: Rise of the Pink Ladies_ because Paramount Plus removed that a week after it's last episode along with _Star Trek Prodigy_ (which got saved mostly by being a Star Trek property) so thanks for the reminder on that haha
