I think this movie did well because like me, many people are also sick and tired of being so sick and tired of the world all the time, and so, a movie with a sincere message for jaded adults about accepting their own mortality and refinding their humanity really resonated. Because it is a message of hope, instead of despair.
In a way, it’s the anti-“Babylon”.
Maybe I’ll explain more one day when I have time, after the strike’s done.

I think the movie did well because IT WAS PLASTERED EVERYFUCKINGWHERE along with Oppenhimer. Literally couldn’t find a corner of the internet not talking about one or the other.

I really only saw it in threads specific to it, which were pretty scarce on Lemmy since I had stopped going to Reddit by that point except for one subreddit. Now there was chatter in that spot about the movie, but that was mostly about how one of the groups on the soundtrack was imploding themselves rather than the movie itself.
The only place I saw it in the wild was my local coffee shop made some drinks based on the movie. I’d also seen some advertisements prior, but that was months and months before release.
I guess you need a better adblocker?

I think they were referring to the millions of memes, not the ads.
