I think some people feel like there's... And as we talked about in last week's episode, the more the movie tries to movie...
The less successful it is and the more it backrooms, the more interesting it is.
And I think most people are feeling that way, even those people who come to it without any experience, that there's something kind of singular about what he's capturing when he's inside of the experience of the idea.
And then trying to build narrative around it doesn't totally work as well.
And so I noted this morning that it has a 3.4 on Letterboxd.
It's pretty low.
Now, it's been viewed like I think half a million times already.
It's been logged on the app, which in like three days is just absolutely bonkers.
Obsession, by contrast, has a 4.2 on Letterboxd.
and has also been logged, I think, in a somewhat similar vicinity.
That movie made actually $27.5 million this weekend.
It went up again on its third weekend of release.
And this is the first film outside of the Christmas window since 1982's E.T., perhaps you've heard of it, to have second and third weekends bigger than the first.
This is crazy.
It's wonderful.
It is good.
It is good.
A lot of movies are good.
Right.
I agree.
