As someone who isn't that big on musicals...absolutely.
Was honestly one of the best movies I've seen in 2024.

When talking about box office grosses, Hollywood never adjusts for inflation unless specified otherwise.
Grease (1978): $328 million
Wicked (2024): $634.3 million
Unadjusted for inflation, of course.

I thought they were a for-profit company all this time.

Is it really more effort to pirate? I’m not sure I agree with that.
Relative to your own experience and tech expertise, it's easier. Look at this through the eyes of an average person. More people use smartphones than computers/laptops (and if they use laptops, it's likely that they're running a locked-down OS like ChromeOS). They probably don't even know what a file or folder/directory is, much less a "torrent".
"So you're telling me I need to install this app that's not on the official App Store to 'download' a movie, in the process exposing my IP address and potentially getting me in hot water with my ISP? Sounds dangerous to my security, better stick with Netflix and Amazon Prime."
The CDC states no person-to-person transmission occurred, and public risk remains low.
...for now.
I know Tibet is technically an autonomous region and not a country, but it doesn't roll of the tounge as much.
I don't think piracy has that big of an effect on box office.
Most people don't know how to pirate properly and are too afraid of "viruses" and navigating file systems to do it.
If piracy really were that big of a problem, they wouldn't be doing this.
Yeah, it boggles me why Universal would do this. It feels like they're leaving money on the table.
Maybe it's not performing as well as they'd hoped?
Those were all meant to be experienced in theaters.
Thanks, but don't go putting my opinion on some high pedestal. I don't exactly have the best taste in film...
