NEON finally has a hit movie and then they blow 17.5 Million on Palm Springs at Sundance. They're friggin' INSANE. I love their films usually but they're going to make themselves go bankrupt eventually which would be a shame.

Wow, I should feel more shocked. I guess part of me expected it. I thought though that the Oscars would make the boring choice. It was a lot to ask for a foreign film to be nominated for so many awards. I thought it was too much to ask for a win. At least for once I agree with the academy that the BP winner is a great movie.

So, 50m?

Yeah 1917 seemed like the obvious BP win, but I love the fact that it was this, although that director win should have been a clear giveaway. It should be interesting to see how much this will boost it's overall BO, but I hope it makes to at least $50M domestic eventhough as I have said before it deserves so much more.

I think this could still make lots of $$ now despite being available at home. Very interested to see how it expands.

Expecting a 300% increase for Parasite. Despite it being available on blu-ray.

A lot of best picture winners with 35m are not necessarily that mainstream. Parasite is, it’s just in a foreign language. Perhaps the best picture win can overcome that barrier.

Desperately wish it wasn't on digital or Blu-ray. But even so it should be able to reach 50 Million at least. I hope somehow it can really catch on now and just keep playing in theaters for a while.

Was so ecstatic it won both Director and Picture.

Yeah, I questioned the early digital/Blu-Ray release, but who knows maybe that added accessibility played a part in its victory.

Will be doing 50+. Fantastic. I'm hoping it can hold up well in the coming weeks.

Looks like it did just that, and more.

Great to see Parasite and Uncet Gems set the records for Neon and A24 respectively :thumbsup:

Specially Parasite which might double the previous record of $30m of I, Tonya

Wow! That's something. I didn't feel that it needs an IMAX but to see it on a big screen would be great.

Trump complained about it at a rally, and Neon fired back at him on Twitter. This will probably be a big story for the whole weekend and add even more interest to the film.

Did Kim cry on the phone with him about South Korea winning BP and that North Korea is best Korea?
