Gone with the Wind did about $2.2 million last year for its Fathom Event, ahead of every other Fathom re-release. Wizard of Oz was the only one to hit 2M, and everything else this year didn't even come close to 1M, let alone 2M. That's a fair amount of fans for a 4-hour release.
And while I'm sure there are some MAGAs who want to "own the libs" by getting Gone with the Wind on digital, I sincerely doubt it's t to that large a demographic to push Gone with the Wind into #2 on iTunes. I get some of y'all are younger, but it seems that maybe, just maybe, the people buying/renting the movie are doing this...because they like the movie? They want to check it out? It being in the news made them want to check it out? Restrictions are still in place so there's nothing else to do?
This isn't even coming from a GwtW fan. I haven't seen it, and I don't really care that much to see it. But Occam's Razor suggests instead of this bizarro own the libs BS that it's just people wanting to catch something that was in the news.
