It's so bad.
A vanishingly small portion of the paying audience would have been aware of the kerfuffle.
People just didn't want to pay theater prices.
I didn't know this movie existed until this post.
I had only heard of it being released early.
I have been to five movies in the theater in the last six years. Superman, two Marvel movies, two Dune movies.
It takes a lot to get me to both leave my house and pay extra money.
Also Dune (or was it Dune 2) hit the interwebs almost immediately but still did well box office-wise.
The Batman came out in this timeframe, I cant see someone who is this picky but also only going for tentpoles and established CBMs not seeing that.
I don't want to pay that kind of money to go to a large living room with sticky furniture and a dozen phones blazing in the darkness like oncoming BMW headlights.
The wife got a big new TV with a bonus last year, and we have Crave. I'm content.
? It wasn't great. If they're concerned about poor turn out in theaters they should look at what else was in theaters and how well they did.
It did well in territories it released in before the leak.
This movie was Oscar winner material compared to the garbage Mandalorian movie that also recently came out.
