nvm underperformed projections by 20%

https://www.indiewire.com/2018/10/first-man-box-office-underwhelms-uniersal-reacts-1202012021/

Damien Chazelle’s “First Man” opened in theaters nationwide October 12 with strong reviews (the film boasts an 88% on Rotten Tomatoes from over 250 reviews) and even stronger Oscar buzz, but the Neil Armstrong space drama didn’t exactly set the box office on fire. The film, starring Ryan Gosling and Claire Foy, earned $16.5 million over its first three days, below projections the title would hit or surpass the $20 million mark. Despite the slow start, Universal is remaining optimistic about the film’s financial future.

“As we’ve seen in this release corridor, quality films like ‘First Man’ — Certified Fresh at 88% on Rotten Tomatoes — have strong playability and will have tremendous legs at the box office,” Universal distribution president Jim Orr told Variety in reaction to the film’s debut. “This weekend’s results are a just a starting point. Quality adult dramas released in this time period produce very healthy multiples. This is very much a marathon, not a sprint.”

Speaking to Deadline, Orr reiterated that Universal isn’t viewing the film’s $16.5 million start as a disappointment in any way.

CR.

Neil Armstrong's moonwalk and the flag planted on the moon are the most iconic images from the visit.

but, no, american patriotism is illegal and may insult other cultures while promoting a culture of exclusion, so can't have that.

also the male planting his flag in the moon is too much a symbol for male dominance and sexual intercourse.

he raped that moon, and that's *not okay*. that cheese hunk could've been me!

argh how i hate libs actively seeking out ANYTHING that can be complained about as representing toxic masculinity or the US exhibiting dominance.

I thought Whiplash and La La Land were great, but it seems like you can read write through the reviews that this movie sucks. They're all like "it's slow and methodical but that doesn't mean its boring" -- which means its incredibly boring.

Neil Armstrong was a cipher tbh. Wouldn't have been the first man if Gus Grissom didn't die in Apollo 1. Was first only bc Buzz Aldrin was insufferable.

Who plays Stanley Kubrick in this? Did they film at the same sound stage as the first moon landing?
