I remember someone saying that once WWE Films gave up on theatrical releases and became a direct to video company, they made decent money off of it.

the first Marine film seems to have made $50M in US sales against a budget of $15M, that's pretty good

For a while their business model was buying up and distributing indie horror movies from festivals and Oculus definitely was one. They bought a siege movie called The Day which I thought was ok. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFsRfIW7wes

Flanagan in general is great even if I think Oculus is pretty low on the list of things he’s done. flashy_mcflash posted:For a while their business model was buying up and distributing indie horror movies from festivals and Oculus definitely was one.

I could see HHH watching the first 30 or so minutes of Death of Stalin and thinking he relates to that cool guy Beria and things will totally work out in the end. He turns it off while humming the Soviet March from Red Alert 3. Steph as Yetzov is hilariously spot on. Tato posted:Someone went back in time and changed some poo poo. Now Stephanie McMahon never existed and......Patrice O'Neil is alive and co-CEO?!? Great now Steph will get another Time Machine and assassinate Einstein to correct the present. Eventually she will go to the one place uncorrupted by Tony Khan: SPACE! God I want to play Red Alert 3 again

They were too cowardly to adapt WWE Big Apple Takedown into a movie. gently caress them. The Marine 1 is great though.

There has to be at least one occurrence of this--if not on Raw then on TNA--where it crept beyond a full hour and I want to know just how much past an hour it went.

If any of you listen to the Behind the Bastards podcast, they are working on an episode about Vince. Probably nothing we have not heard of before but the delivery and the response from someone who has never heard it before will be worth it. https://twitter.com/IwriteOK/status/1645577258680340480?s=20
