You're a meme film.

Yeah, I know right? It's almost like this is a forum specifically dedicated towards domestic box office or something.

Wanted to mention btw that Regal's doing another Monday Mystery Movie thing on January 9. So...what's coming out on Apple soon? Wikipedia says a Julianne Moore movie drops in February. Could also be the Taron Egerton Tetris movie in March.

Okay.

You literally answered your own question right there. It's precisely because it's not Christmas yet that they placed it out on PVOD. Universal already made solid money on the film, and now they want to strike while the iron is hot and get the money from people who want to watch it at home. Nobody's going to see a Christmas movie in February or March, and PVOD doesn't impact legs, so you might as well get some extra revenue from the film that's likely going to be more revenue than the likely $3 million gross from theaters that weekend. I know you hate these early windows and that streaming is the devil's work, but it makes total sense to capitalize on the film's popularity like this so early and it's more than clear that Universal likes doing this strategy.

Yeah this weekend's basically going to be a real waste. Won't stop some of us from having annoying meltdowns, but that's just a part of the BOT way sadly.

I love how this is a shared experience everybody has with this one movie. Community!

He's soooo cute 😢

Yeah that's basically my thought process. Those two are tailor-made for the biggest moviegoing demographic at the moment and will probably thrive without needing too much money from kids and families. But every other animated movie this year...yeah, they're dead as a doornail.

lmao wat
