‘PROJECT HAIL MARY’ has earned $33.1M in the film's domestic opening day. Biggest domestic opening day ever for any non-franchise film. Read our review: bit.ly/DFMary


JUST INSANITY at this point, as #Pixar’s new original #HOPPERS resists to #ProjectHailMary with uncanny legs at US #BoxOffice, after another SPECTACULAR 5.4M on BIGGEST 3rd FRI for a original animation in over a decade, just a -24.9% drop from last FRI (vs #Coco’s 4.2M, -33.2%, #TheWildRobot’s 3.8M, -22%, #Elemental’s 3.5M, -38.2%), despite #ProjectHailMary giant opening day! #HOPPERS hits a 107.8M cume in the US. Eyeing a 19M-22M 3rd 3-day weekend in the U.S



She’s broke with a 750k subscriber channel. She fell for the scam and now she’s stressed, and full of regret. A lot of YouTubers are not building real businesses . They are building prisons with thumbnails. She spent 6 years doing what everyone tells creators to do: just keep increasing quality, grow subscribers, build the brand, trust that the money will come later. Now she’s realizing the audience she built can’t support the life she wants, sponsors don’t value the demo enough, and the “success” everyone applauds doesn’t actually pay like success. That’s the scam. A big branded channel can make you look like you’ve won while quietly making you miserable and financially stuck. Subscribers are not a business. “High quality content bro” is not a business. Luckily she’s woken up and has decided to leave the 750k channel that every one was telling her to keep desperately holding on to. Now she’s actually building a business that will support her and her husband. Unfortunately, she doesn’t know about YTA which would get her out of her rut in less than 30 days. Don’t fall for the scam.
