probably. -- nm - Diva Feb 20, 13:48
Itll piss off MAGAians that is for sure. -- nm - Jovian Feb 20, 13:39
How many saw Moonlight? -- nm - Reagen Feb 20, 13:13 13
- They all get screening DVDs, plus there are nights for academy members to see projected movies - zeitgeist Feb 20, 13:33
- I think it more they they did not have the option to see. -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 13:15 3
  - We don't know the number for Roma but the potential is huge. Bird Box would be in the first place of 2018 movies if we counted that way. -- nm - Reagen Feb 20, 13:24 2
    - If we believe Netflix reporting. -- nm - Spawn Feb 20, 13:55
    - We “know” that Roma had grossed around $2.8m theatrically whebnthe nominations were announced. - Mr. Havens Feb 20, 13:30
- Not many, but it made some money domestically (more than Hurt Locker). But more than saw Roma I'd bet. -- (edited) - MDH Feb 20, 13:15 7
  - After a BP win though, I'd expect views to go up - especially as there's no marginal $ cost. -- nm - Roger More Feb 20, 13:31 5
    - (Though checking it out, Moonlight grossed $22M before its Oscar win, and only another $6M in the weeks afterwards - Roger More Feb 20, 13:38 4

        Oh yeah, I finally watched Moonlight over the weekend. It was great, but without an Oscar win/nom I wouldn’t have remembered to have it in my list -- nm - Roger More Feb 20, 15:22 1

        And, you know, outside the US. - Marlowe Feb 20, 15:11
  - Except for Netflix, it’s not about grosses. It’s aboit building prestige in order to get more subscribers. - Mr. Havens Feb 20, 13:28
