Are they SURE they meant to write the word “ruined” instead of “liberated film from the stranglehold of?” Maybe their hand slipped??????????????????
Oh some of you missed it, okay, so this movie was set to hit theaters exactly when all theaters were shut down for the quarantine and rather than delay it they took a chance at releasing it direct to home streaming from day one, the first time a major studio has ever done so, and yeah the numbers can be chalked up heavily to families stuck at home with nothing to do but they still weren’t expecting it to make 100 million dollars in just a couple weeks, especially not when the whole family just has to pay for it once instead of a bunch of tickets.
It was such a STAGGERING success that it opened up discussion over whether movies actually need theaters anymore, whether the profits are only being held back by how much time, energy and money it takes for consumers to arrange a whole trip out to see a new release, and pretty much the only real conclusion being drawn is a resounding “yes, and that should have been patently obvious.”
It had more studios rush to put things out for streaming and they continue to be making more money than they ever imagined, even factoring in all that collective cabin fever. It also has the Academy Awards changing their rules this year to include non-theatrical releases for the first time.
Trolls World Tour might go down as one of the most important, most industry-shattering works in cinematic history, albeit not necessarily for its actual content (which is cute by the way, worth seeing).

I’m literally obsessed with this picture of my cat. It is the definition of renaissance painting imagery. The shading. The pose. The thoughtful twinkle in his eye. Sublime
DIY clear facemask for the Deaf, hard of hearing, and anyone who might get hassled for having their face covered. Requires sewing.
If you, anyone in your household, or anyone you are currently interacting with regularly uses lip reading to communicate and would benefit from having this type of mask please message me. I will happily make and send you one for free, though if you live outside of the US I may ask you to help cover the cost of shipping.
Info to include when requesting:

2) Number of masks needed
3) Address to mail them to

I will let you know what fabric I currently have available so you can pick the color.
Following steps 1-4 will help me get the masks out more quickly. Thank you!
(In case you are wondering: These do fog up a bit after being used for a while, but are still usable for lip reading.)
