it IS a real word, it's just not in the dictionary. It's a road, it's a town, it's a movie, and it's a genus of wasps.... among a couple of other less legitimate things: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zzyzx

That's half as interesting as this video.

Not in Scrabble, though, where ZZZ and ZZZS beat both. 1) Yes, really. 2) I don't think I need to tell you what those mean.

What about Zyzzyzus, a genus of marine tubulariid hydrozoans? That would come after Zyzzyx.

yeah sven's passing was sad

Gormless Mark no it most definitely was not.

People came expecting furries, got gross characters instead. Should’ve just made furries.

There’s a difference between a movie’s gross and a movie’s “loss” (or profit).

Yes, never adapt a play to screen. A play is inherently superior to the movie and any attempt at impersonating live theatre with cheap cgi is... folly to be polite. I know it wasn't cheap in cost but that is the bill for copping out of actual songwriters and choreographers and instead having America's equivalent to living garbage Rebel wilson, i mean seriously her and corey Feldman should just hook up, get married and move to the garbage island in the middle of the ocean as it's new regents but apparently corey isn't returning my mail.

@@tiagooliveira7950 have you heard of el Mariachi

The thumbnail says that it cost 1.3 mil to make

That explains why I was so confused about this. I'd heard of that film, and went into this video assuming it would be about that one.

Ah, so this is probably a rip-off of that one?

wagon Googlesux I don’t know. I’d have thought that it would take far too long to make a knockoff of such a small film for it to be worth it, especially if you’re using real actors, but who knows.

Yeah no one actually bought a ticket, they didn't release it on DvD and it grossed 0 dollars domestic or international.

Well, the directors are claiming the box office numbers were never undisclosed.. so.. they are just lying to make it seem they got some money, but don't want to admit they got squat

@@lucywucyyy you're

I wouldn't doubt it if couples went there because it was empty to do, you know what

This kinda happened to me once. lol (Admittedly, this Cinema was in a small town) but still.

It happened when I watched Warcraft: The Movie. It was a pretty interesting experience to be sitting at a completely empty theater, even though it was also a pretty small room.

Purple Smart random but whenever we (my aunts family, my grandma, and my friend..) went to go see The Lion King remake in a tiny Florida theater, we died laughin’ near the end. (Andddd when Mufasa fell off the cliff. It was hysterical.) for no reason at all. We were so deprived of entertainment that it finally got to all of our heads. We legit almost got kicked out because we were being annoying to the other people in the theater.

Sup

That is how I have always heard it pronounced, "zizzix".

Yep, Cali native here, it's always been "zizzix"

It's actually pronounced ZY-ziks. (Rhymes with Isaac's.)

Nope

But that road has actual history, even the part in Carburetor County, which I'm fairly certain is based off of San Bernardino County, CA.

Wait is that not just"Once Upon A time in Hollywood" but released 13 years to early?

That Bad BLU Spy Actually it’s based of Mohave County, Arizona. Radiator Springs’s location in the movie is the same as a real town called Peach Springs. The town itself is modeled after several towns along Route 66.

True. But its DVD earning aren't much to write home about. It made $368,000 by the end of 2006. Unlikely it ever recouped its $1.2 million production cost.

I was just about to start googling. I'm dissapointed in him for not finding out how much was made on DVD sales

Something sound off. Usually the people who made the movie are supposed to make money or at least try breaking even. If you make 30 dollars on a 1.2 million dollar movie it's either the worst movie on record, trying to break a world with the lowest movie income or making yourself look like a complete douchebag by making 20 to 30 buck wasting everyone's time and effort. if I'm going to make a movie at least I'd try to break even or go for the world record of making the worst movie on Earth or Lowet budget ever on a world record. If I made a movie with no intention to make almost money or record I'd look like a total douchebag

@@94462 Worth it just to write that tagline

Good idea, but that tagline won't be true. The max the movie could have (and did) lost was it's production budget, of 1.2 million (plus the theatre rental cost). The real biggest bomb is Disney's John Carter, losing 200 million, *maybe* surpassed by Indiana Jones 5.

So many holes in this video. Must be a money laundering scam, if they aren’t bothered about showing a movie. 🤯

Andrew Ray, California added exit numbers all over the state in the 2000’s. While most are spaced properly, this is actually one of the better signs because many are small, only have the exit number, and are posted in the split between the highway and the ramp - too late to be useful. This exit has both. You can see an example of the uselessly late small signs between the freeway and the ramp. Worse, there are no mile markers along the highways in California so it’s still better to know the name of the exit - because that is always on a sign _before_ the ramp - than to know the exit number. Unfortunately, many satellite navigation systems got updates and have given directions with useless exit numbers since then.

Brooke King oh so that’s what those mile signs mean lol

The road name is correct, it’s Zzyzx. The movie has an extra Y, in Zzyzyx.

He got the name wrong. It's pronounced "zizzix", not "zeezix".
