      Production was 200. If we double that to account for marketing, then the movie has at least broken even. It's fine.

        Needing 2 and half months to break even is generally not a great thing in the movie industry.

        You are forgetting that on Cinemaphile, the marketing budget is whatever they need it to be to push their talking points. I saw someone say Across the Spiderverse had a marketing budget of 5000 million lmao.

          It isn't like that.
          The theaters take around half of the box office.

          The marketing figures are usually very secretive but even Strange World had a $90M marketing budget on top of their production costs.

        You guys to lazy to even do basic math? You've the same brain thought as a twitter user that thinks they broke even just by matching their production cost.

          There's some troony who REALLY fricking likes this film and will stan it like her estradol, and throw a shitfit at anyone who throws shade at it. Unfortunately that's not enough to move any of the merch, which is completely rotting at every retailer near me..

          The Pixar CEO said 460 million is its break even point, and it's at 468 million. It's making profit now. Copium is no more.

        Asian girls in asia have no choice. When they come to America, they are the most likely of any race to date or marry outside of race.

              Or have you considered Asians are already a tiny minority in America and there will be a higher amount of non-asian men around them than asian men

                If that were the case asian men and women would have similar rate of marrying outside of their race. Asian women marry non-asians at a higher rate than the men.

            Asian girls have daddy issues because asian fathers are drunkards that put a girl's grade above her mrntal health and asian dudes remind them of their father too much.

      I believe a plurality of Asian women in America are with white men.
      Also anecdotally almost every Asian woman I see is with a white man and I live in the Asian central of the US.

        white men are easy pickings for asian girls. there's plenty and you can choose the nicest one or the sexiest one because basically every white guy will like an asian girl cuz anime.
        (though same with asian men cuz kpop. i heard girls don't like em cuz they're misogynistic and not chivalrous like their kdrama boyz)

        In korea it is completely okay and socially acceptable to beat your wife. Girls see what their fathers do to keep mom in line, and run to the arms of white bois who have a lower chance of beating them.

      some explanations I've heard is that Koreans love mushy romantic stuff and Elemental is that. Other cartoons Koreans love are Zootopia, Inside Out, and the Frozen movies. They also watch some anime.
