That's the stupidest thing Trump has done so far. Why he would reward the people currently running Hollywood like this, especially when they all hate him, is anyone's guess.
Japan's saying "Oh well... We just made $650 Million + worldwide on a $20 Million budget, and only 1/5th of that income came from the US".
maybe I should bump the legitimate criticism thread

Demon Slayer budget was reported at 20 Million for a Japan Anime that's a little high, however when compared to a Hollywood budget it would be very low

Box Office Report Prediction
Quote:
What would have been an especially slow weekend at the box office will be given some much needed life with AMC Theatres Distribution's release of Taylor Swift | The Official Release Party of a Showgirl. The music film starring Taylor Swift is a companion piece to Swift's new album, The Life of a Showgirl, which is also being released on Friday, October 3. Despite not being announced until last month, a sizable amount of Swift's fans will no doubt be catching The Official Release Party of a Showgirl in theatres this weekend. And for those wanting to see the film in theatres, they will have to do so this weekend, as Taylor Swift | The Official Release Party of a Showgirl is only scheduled to play for three days (this Friday through Sunday). Understandably, Taylor Swift | The Official Release Party of a Showgirl isn't expected to come anywhere close to the $93.22 million debut of Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour concert film back in October of 2023, but delivering just a fraction of that performance would lead to Taylor Swift | The Official Release Party of a Showgirl having an impressive performance of its own this weekend. BoxOfficeReport is predicting that Taylor Swift | The Official Release Party of a Showgirl will easily take first place this weekend with a $39.0 million haul.
Meanwhile, it could prove to be a close race for second place this weekend between Warner Bros.'s One Battle After Another (in its second weekend of release) and A24's The Smashing Machine (in its first weekend of release). Last weekend One Battle After Another debuted in first place with $22.00 million, which was in line with consensus expectations. The critically acclaimed Paul Thomas Anderson directed action thriller starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Sean Penn also looks to be going over very well with audiences after receiving a strong A rating on CinemaScore. Midweek grosses this week have been encouraging for One Battle After Another, though the film could also prove to be relatively midweek heavy in general. One Battle After Another will continue to play on IMAX screens this weekend, with some IMAX showtimes going to The Smashing Machine and the re-issue of Avatar: The Way of Water. Back in October of 2023, Killers of the Flower Moon declined 59.9 percent in its second weekend to gross $9.32 million, but it appears likely that One Battle After Another will have a stronger second weekend percentage hold this weekend. One Battle After Another could decline a respectable 50.0 percent to gross $11.0 million this weekend.

I think Taylor Swift is on her way out.
She backed all the wrong horses. She should have kept her mouth shut like she did for the first 3/4 of her celebrity.
