Small movies that make a lot of money is NOT a new phenomenon. Before Obsession there were countless no budget horror films that hit the jackpot, from Blair Witch, Paranormal Activity, Saw, to Halloween. I salute and envy all of them, but everyone's kidding themselves if they think that's a business model.

First, for every Obsession there are literally thousands of low budget horror films in any given year, let alone indie flicks. 16,000 films were submitted to Sundance this year. 100 got selected and shown. About 15 got notable distribution. That's worse odds than any highschooler trying to be an All Star NBA player.

Second, while $100 million sounds great, Hollywood is not in the millions business. They are in the billions business. It's the $3 billion of Avengers tickets that pay for the parking structures at Disney, and Marvel at California Adventure that keeps the stock from crashing. The Obsession branded dildo only pays 5 seconds of fuel on Jon Favereau's Disney Jet.

Third, I'm directly addressing Gen Z now: A24 is not a new idea. Before them there was this company called "Miramax." They dominated the indie space and controlled the Oscars. They were a breeding ground for cool independent filmmakers like Tarantino, and also kind of a proto-Raya for its producer Harvey Weinstein.

The point is no, we are not going to see $1 million movies as the new model. This is no change in the system. This is the system. The film market has iterated many models from high to low, but it always comes down to this: there is limited cultural time the audience will give you, and the job of Hollywood is to dominate all of it. The occasional indie bleed offs seem like insane numbers, but they are crumbs to the empire, and the empire likes to lick the plate. Everyone knows they'll buy A24 eventually, especially A24.

My suggestion is don't follow the trends. By the time the trend is there, it's already going to be monetized by the professionals in executive suites. They're way ahead of you making psychological thrillers like Obsession but with sharks. They didn't get their business degrees from Harvard for no reason.

Instead, just do you. At the end of the day you're choosing the path of an artist, and while money is important, you're supposed to make it with something you want to say, not what others want you to say. Your individual life experience is valuable. Follow your own beat. It's a crap shoot, you might as well just be you.

Or there's always Onlyfans.

Long legs is a $10 million movie which is still considered a small budget, with a literal academy award winner in it, so comparing it to a dude who made successful YouTube videos for 750 g seems weird

[B Show Brian @bshowbrian]

They did this in Monroe? Thats like 30 minutes away from me. Its a nowhere town

[Matthew Keys @MatthewKeysLive]

Just one day after ending "The Late Show" on CBS, Stephen Colbert returned to TV — to host a public access show with rocker Jack White in Monroe, Michigan.

Appearances by Jeff Daniels, Eminem and Steve Buscemi.

@DyExperience @MooseBreathe @xandooflifepod Jesus the last thing I need is you driving cross country shifting in a diaper to show up standing over my bed

[B Show Brian @bshowbrian]

Also, shout out to Phil Tippett for his stop motion work in Mandalorian and Grogu. It's there if you look closely. A classic stop motion composite action scene

[Carnival of Horror @HorrorCarnival]

Mad God (2021) is a dark, surreal stop-motion nightmare brought to life by legendary visual effects artist Phil Tippett, known for his groundbreaking work on Star Wars and Jurassic Park. Meticulously handcrafted over the course of 30 years, the film stands as one of the most ambitious stop-motion projects ever created.

[Spitball Media @spitball_media]

And so it should. We do a pretty deep non spoiler dive into everything Obsession and the success really is undeniable.

[joe punches @MooseBreathe]

#TheMandalorianAndGrogu This Is The Way…..And THIS movie was soooo much fun! Action packed right from the beginning to the end. Moments of Humor, some touching moments, and flowed pretty well for almost two hours of a story. Could this have easily been stretched out as another season of The Mandalorian? Sure. But who cares, I really really enjoyed it. 8/10 #StarWars

[B Show Brian @bshowbrian]

Forever by The Little Dippers has been stuck in my head since Sunday night. A dreamy slow dance, car parking tune now inexorably linked with one of the most effective horror movies of my lifetime.

[B Show Brian @bshowbrian]

So far this year I've seen three movies opening weekend. Super Mario Galaxy, Obsession, and The Manadlorian and Grogu. Im trying to make it to back rooms next weekend.

After hearing cinema is dead for a while, 2026 says otherwise.

[Jon Draper @iamjondraper]

I just saw the Mandalorian movie in IMAX 3-D. It was fucking great. Couldn’t believe how good it was. Action packed from start to finish. Highly recommend.

@bshowbrian That explains why you were away those times. You said you were at camp.
