sir?

beau is afraid is special fr…. no clue why it got such mixed reception

?

dawg

well thanks haha but I didn't think it'd be a crazy statement, why's it wrong?

Bro despite all of that they have always liked you

you're wrong but u lucky that they like you

that's my main takeaway too, people like me

Put him in directors jail yesterday

She is the most bankable movie star in history in terms of total box office gross. Not "female movie star" -- movie star period. Movies with her name on the bill have earned the most money in ticket sales compared to anyone else ever.

Also this^

we gonna put you in jail if you don't show your tax records mr. osteen

Church and state my boa, church and state

but is that because of her star power, or because she's been in a lot of bankable movies?

how much is she really moving the needle when she's in an indie film? to be fair, I don't think there's a lot of actors who can do that.

"Movie star" as a concept is in steep decline. Every Jurassic Park movie makes a billion dollars. That she was in one isn't the reason it made that much money. The same with Avengers etc

Outdated thinking and misapplied numbers

Yes the top box earners list is basically 90% franchies/Marvel stars. But Scarlet has lots of very impressive box office draws from movies outside that sphere

Non franchise releases, lower budget/indie films where she was in leading role or top billing:

Lucy made half a billion dollars on a 40mil budget -- This is before her Marvel/franchise movie run, only Avengers had released up to this point. Lucy made more money at the box office than her current box office average.

Lost in Translation made 100 million.
Jojo Rabbit made 100 million.

Vicky Cristina Barcelona made almost 100 million on a budget of 15 mil -- Woody films are notorious for losing millions or barely breaking even.

Match Point also made almost 85 million -- again extremely rare for Woody, particularly in this era.

Another even earlier Woody film Scoop that she was the leading role in made almost 10x it's budget, another rarity for Woody.

Don Juan - 5 million budget into 45 million box

Hmmm, I will process this data and potentially reconsider. You really think she has more of a grip than Joaquin? For women, my gut tells me Zendaya and Margot have higher influence in 2026. Maybe she just comes off as less of a draw to me cause her acting style is so lowkey / naturalistic. Let me meditate on this, I'm just going off vibes.

PRODUCTION STARTING LATE 2026

Eddington shot in March-May 2024 and dropped May 2025 so this could be a fall 2027 movie

Meaning scarjo would have Batman 2 and this around the same time

Wonder if this gonna related to the Du Maurier book or have explicit Girardian themes

In, I just hope this one is under 2.5 hrs

Looking back dropping hereditary and midsommar back to back was insane

But then... the last two
