Barbenheimer is a success
The simultaneous release of Barbie and Oppenheimer became a global trend named Barbenheimer as both the movies continue to make records at the box office.
Richard Gelfond, IMAX chief executive, said, “I’ve at all times joked that if there’s a twister film that works that the following 12 months there will likely be three twister motion pictures. There’s an inside prejudice to doing what works. I’m hopeful that these motion pictures have been unique by famous filmmakers will persuade studios to lean into that path quite than doing what’s protected. The numbers don’t lie.”
According to AP, within the wake of Barbenheimer, many are hoping Hollywood will draw a lesson aside from greenlighting extra toy diversifications and the inevitable Barbie sequel.
Clare Binns, managing director of indie distributor Picturehouse, wrote on Twitter, “Everyone got here out this weekend for 2 ORIGINAL, sensible, high quality motion pictures. It’s what audiences need. Reboots, superheroes and movies with bloated budgets that always cowl a scarcity of concepts — time to take inventory. No algorithms this weekend.”
