The Irishman

All the news from the peanut gallery and where all the nasty trash talk fails miserably.
It can get NSFW-ish here: you have been warned!

I have not watched it- fixing to. Unlike stuffy Spielberg insisting that streaming movies have theatrical releases in movie houses before they are eligible for awards, directors like Scorsese know they can thrive. Can put out 3-4 hour movies with no overview from the suits at the studios demanding trims to under 2 hours to satisfy studio audiences. At home, you can watch as long as you want, leave, and watch the rest later. The movie studio system is dead and they know it.

B.S. with that figure, as usual. Would not be surprised to see the whole studio/ movie complexes 100 year relations break down completely with demands to show streaming movies/ series on their big screens with no inteference (sp). Hell of a run, 130 years of movies from Edison, through the radio surge of the 1920's, The real threat of TV's in the 50's-70's and finally die in the internet age.

I doesn't matter. Hollywood is an under $10 Billion industry in their best years (fixing to be a thing of the past). RD is spewing shit posts as usual.

Meh, it's the Post. There's some truth there, but she was heavy handed with it. The story was interesting, the performances? Meh.

Revenue.
BS and global. The whole economic model is fixing to collapse. Interesting they survived in the 50's-70's when TV sales surged to 100%. Will not survive this internet streaming. A technology born the the 19th Century will be totally transformed in the next half-century.

Your figure is domestic revenue only. Please try to know what you're talking about.

Yeah, those movies under tents in African villages at 10 cents a head sure add up. I was talking about studios producing movies, revenue at the theaters, etc. Your BS figure includes residual DVD sales, profit from distribution deals to global outlets for years/ decades to come. Like everything else in life, you literally don't know what you are talking about. At this point, we kind of expect it.

Your statement is completely wrong.
My figure represents total worldwide box office revenue for one fiscal year.
You are wrong. Deal with it.
