Netflix purchased it for 120 million. It made about a million overseas. It cost roughly 250 million to produce.
The Irishman is Netflix' most successful theatrical release of all time. I have told you repeatedly that it was only released in cinemas on a limited run to be eligible for awards season. Yet you seem unable to take in this fact, and instead seem to be of the opinion that because it didn't recoup box office receipts of $130,000,000 in 2 weeks it must be forever catalogued as unsuccessful.
This goes without saying. I didn't mention the Emoji movie as being the height of cinematic excellence. You brought up the seven samurai, and in the same breath, pointed out that it lost money.
This conversation reminds me of conversations I've had with musicians about modern jazz. Musicians love much of it, but it's been a long time since a jazz band filled Wembley stadium.
