No shade on him. This is absolutely no small achievement. But for many, the man himself is marketing. Millions, watch, and enjoy his YouTube videos over the last decade or two. I know I have and it's the only reason I knew about this movie. Literally, before last night. I had not seen anything else come up in any feed about the movie outside of Mark himself.
I hope it continues to blow up though. He absolutely deserves it. And it's putting egg all over Hollywood's face. Hollywood definitely deserves it.
The only thing I know about Markiplier is I recognize his name. So yea.
Watching his fans get it from three theaters to three thousand was pretty amazing.
