X and Pearl both grossed around $15M

I see these movies talked about constantly but the math doesn’t line up
About 1M people saw each movie WORLDWIDE.
Why is this nonentity of a movie getting a fricking trilogy?
Why is it talked about so much?
What other movies punch above their box office weight like this?

        Mia Goth gets naked in everything, she gives a handjob and lets a guy suck her titty in Infinity Pool

          Yeah Mia is like an American Eva Green or Lea Seydoux. I think they have to force her to keep her clothes on when she's on set.

        Even better, she gets fricked by a BBC in X and you see everything.

      Based. I also like how Jenna saw the BBC destroy Brittany Snow's vegana and was like, "Damn, I need a ciggie right now! That was hot!". And when her boyfriend ran out of ciggies, Jenna was like, frick you then I'm gonna bang this BBC. I don't smoke but that's why I always carry a pack of ciggies in case I run into Jenna irl.

    These movies are ridiculously cheap to make, they are more profitable than most current big budget productions, and came out when theater attendance was still down because of covid.
    Also, these movies go really hard as home media. Someone is making a lot of money of these films, it's not strange that they're making a new one.

    Practically all online 'discourse' is driven by a tiny proportion of the population, less than 5%.
    Something can be popular online but not really irl because it's more of a niche thing among people who spend their entire day's arguing on leddit or posting on twitter.com when everybody else goes to work, looks after their family or just generally has a life.

    >why is it getting a trilogy
    X and Pearl were shot at the same time and released the same year, they only cost 2 million together and made ~ 25 million together. Essentially this is the same as a single film making around 25 million on 2 million budget. Undeniably a success and of course they would greenlight another sequel, especially if it's also not very expensive.
    Also, obviously a lot of people watched it when it hit digital and physical releases, which added to the overall profit.

      >X and Pearl were shot at the same time and released the same year, they only cost 2 million together and made
      I've seen that unsourced "$1M" quote in several places and the only official mention I've actually found of it is someone calling it bullshit
      It also doesn't include marketing and I'm telling you that I see these fricking movies advertised everywhere I go, which is why I checked out the box office figure thinking that it would be around $100M to justify the constant chatter.
      I assume this made "some" money but it's not some box office miracle like Blair Witch that made 4000x its production budget

        Maybe, but even so there would be no green lightning if it didn't make money.
        Also, any money is good money, just cause it wasn't Blair Witch doesn't mean it's not worth anything in terms of profit. I also assume Ti West wrote MaXXXine long before, the trilogy was planned from the start, but he could only shoot two movies at once because MaXXXine takes place in a city while Pearl and X in the same rural area. So A24 is just fulfilling the vision Ti West had from the start for three films.

            >X
            mediocre, the horror really starts only aroudn the last third, literally has BBC cuck subplot, but when the killings start it's entertaining, plus the overall style is good
            >Pearl
            an improvement, main character has a pretty engaging arc, and even tho like X most of it is not really horror, it's more interesting to watch overall, and the stylization is yet again good

        literally nowhere. They've spent close to zero on marketing. Thread on Cinemaphile or some youtuber making a videoessay doesn't count as marketing

            It made money, critics liked it, audiences liked it, it was a breakout role for Mia Goth and Jenna Ortega. It's a successful and good movie by every metric, you probably can't even explain what's wrong with it.

    are you seriously that fricking dumb to imply people can only watch movies in cinema? Both X and Pearl were popular on streaming and on torrents too

    A24 doesn't care that some incels are triggered online. Two movies that cost basically nothing, made tons of money, critics liked it, audiences liked it and you're wondering why they are making a third? You literally can't believe how dare they make a movie that triggers your sensitivities. World doesn't revolve around you, mate

    Because they're shown only in small arthouse cinemas which only exist in big cities. And then they only run for like a week or two.

    Pearl and x had really tiny budgets so a lot more probably went into marketing and horror sucks at the moment. barely any solid horror movies have come out in the past couple of years.
