00:02:26.160 And by the way, she is about to become a superstar. 0.99
00:02:30.240 If you haven't seen, she crushed it, right? 1.00
00:02:31.980 Yep. 0.95

00:02:35.420 And by the way, Mandalorian came out a couple weeks ago.
00:02:38.080 Yep.
00:02:38.980 Mandalorian, the budget, everything, marketing was $300 million.
00:02:41.920 It's made $240 million, which means it's lost already.
00:02:45.320 $60 million on the $300 million investment.
00:02:48.620 So what's the story here?
00:02:51.200 YouTubers, independent creators, are making movies
00:02:54.700 after making a name for themselves on YouTube,
00:02:56.960 and it's translating.
00:02:57.740 Vinny, a couple things on the movies that we can get through.
00:03:00.920 A couple things to say about the movie.
00:03:02.080 And spoiler alert, we're not going to give away the movie,
00:03:05.500 but you guys obviously know the makeup.
00:03:07.180 So here's what happens at the end, both of them.
00:03:08.860 Let me break it for you.
00:03:11.080 Everybody's dead.
00:03:11.680 No, I'm joking.
00:03:12.120 So just FYI, Indy Navarrete, 1.00
00:03:14.240 She used to be a Call of Duty streamer.
00:03:16.860 I know Alberto would love that.
00:03:19.080 First movie in 40 years to make more money in its third weekend
00:03:22.620 than its first two weekends.
00:03:26.340 It's amazing, Pat.
00:03:27.480 It's just, I love the fact that Hollywood,
00:03:32.140 like, I don't want to call it Hollywood,
00:03:33.360 but the independent, the horror movies are back.
00:03:36.960 You don't need to spend, like you said,
00:03:38.700 $300 million with advertising and CGI and this and that
00:03:41.920 If the writing is good
00:03:43.740 And there's a following
00:03:44.820 And you're actually getting scared
00:03:46.280 It's so freaking worth it
00:03:48.580 And it's like actual
00:03:49.360 Look at how great the movie is
00:03:51.320 You have a beautiful girl
00:03:52.900 Beautiful girl that keeps that audience
00:03:54.960 Like oh my god look how gorgeous she is 0.99
00:03:56.560 They don't show anything crazy
00:03:57.680 But they're revealing that
00:03:59.060 They showed a few crazy things
00:04:00.700 Can I see a pic already 0.98
00:04:02.320 That's the beautiful girl you keep talking about
00:04:03.960 Yeah Rob go to Google 0.98
00:04:07.100 There's a couple scenes that she acts 0.98
00:04:09.720 And let me tell you 0.98
00:04:11.720 She will
00:04:13.640 There's a couple scenes right there
00:04:16.280 She looks like a very nice person
00:04:17.960 By the way, the way she played
00:04:19.760 I think she's got a dark side
00:04:21.360 I'm convinced
00:04:22.140 She definitely does
00:04:23.580 Good writing, good writing
00:04:26.220 Good ending, the acting
00:04:28.380 Obviously they put beautiful people in there
00:04:30.580 Bro, he's dying laughing
00:04:33.200 To where the art section was laughing
00:04:35.540 So it's like you got everything
00:04:37.300 What's he laughing about in a horror movie?
00:04:38.680 Trust me, don't give it away
00:04:40.320 But, Pat, didn't it feel good because when we were in the theater,
00:04:43.060 how packed was the theater?
00:04:44.120 They're jam-packed.
00:04:44.860 Jam-packed.
00:04:45.720 Movies 20 minutes in, people are still walking in.
00:04:47.800 Still walking in.
00:04:48.500 And didn't it feel good?
00:04:49.480 I looked around a couple times, I don't know if you noticed,
00:04:51.360 and I'm like, wow, going out and going to the movies are back.
00:04:54.740 For how many years?
00:04:55.820 Who called these guys out?
00:04:56.940 Who said bad things about them?
00:04:58.560 The guy that only made nine movies doesn't want to make his tent.
00:05:01.460 The big director was his name.
00:05:03.020 Quentin Tarantino.
00:05:03.520 Quentin Tarantino was like, yeah, whatever, all this stuff.
00:05:05.920 By the way, these movie theaters, this is the first time.
00:05:09.260 What was the number that came about the movie theaters, Rob?
00:05:12.560 That this is the first time they're making money like the way they –
00:05:15.260 Yeah, Rob, if you Google like May box office for movie theaters, AMC theaters.
00:05:19.620 And type in AMC theaters, yes.
00:05:22.420 Record highs, Pat, domestic and global.
00:05:25.220 Yeah, there you go.
00:05:25.820 AMC Entertainment record high, domestic and global, May 10th, since 2019.
00:05:30.360 Wow.
00:05:30.580 So YouTubers are making AMC start – AMC Entertainment,
00:05:35.620 Welcome more than 4.2 million moviegoers to its USAMC theater in the month of May, Thursday, Sunday night,
00:05:43.180 and yet another strong weekend at the box office in May, both domestically and globally.
00:05:46.660 AMC Entertainment received 225.5 million guests at our theaters,
00:05:51.920 recording the highest attendance month of May since 2019.
00:05:56.260 Backrooms opening 81 million, and then it talks about the following 75 million.
00:06:01.360 So these guys making these movies are directly and indirectly impacting other businesses that have been dying for a few years.
00:06:09.660 And you know what's the beautiful thing about it, Pat?
00:06:11.000 With everything with AI coming out.
00:06:12.820 And this is such a good brand for human because they're all human.
00:06:16.460 What AI?
00:06:17.320 There was no crazy special graphics.
00:06:19.540 There was no fake people in it.
00:06:20.960 Everything was real.
00:06:22.060 Every actor was real.
00:06:23.840 And I think it's a great sign for the future of cinema, Pat.
00:06:27.500 And it's all because of YouTubers.
00:06:29.680 $750,000, that's going to turn.
00:06:31.100 He's saying that they're on track for $200 million,
00:06:33.980 and Backrooms was $10 million.
00:06:35.580 Obsession.
00:06:36.220 And Backrooms is going to hit $300 million.
00:06:39.200 It's insane.
00:06:40.160 Obsession was a better movie than Backrooms for me.
00:06:42.060 How much?
00:06:43.540 I give Obsessions a – and by the way, these are horror movies.
00:06:48.220 And you don't watch horror movies like me and Tico.
00:06:50.560 My son loves horror movies.
00:06:51.860 He's just obsessed with horror.
00:06:52.940 He'll sit in the room by himself and watch Exorcist.
00:06:54.820 He'll sit there and watch with the lights off,
00:06:57.100 and he'll watch it by himself and finish it off.
00:06:59.460 I give Obsession a good eight and a half,
00:07:02.460 and I give Backrooms a seven and a quarter.
00:07:04.520 Okay, so it's still up there, though.
00:07:05.720 But I give the directors that are doing this a high praise of what they're doing
00:07:12.260 because it only benefits creators.
00:07:15.160 Creators are winning, which is a good thing for everybody.
00:07:18.700 And the business model is changing, Vinny.
00:07:21.240 And by the way, Scary Movie even came out.
00:07:23.060 How did they do this weekend opening?
00:07:24.300 The movie had over a hundred and I think 15 million.
00:07:28.840 I think it was number one that globally everywhere.
00:07:31.660 So the 65 million opening weekend with additional 15 and a half million from
00:07:34.340 internal markets.
00:07:35.400 Let's go under five and a half million.
00:07:37.180 Not a scary movie.
00:07:37.820 By the way,
00:07:38.700 pushing the entire scary movie franchise price a billion dollars.
00:07:41.900 The production budget was 30 million,
00:07:44.160 30 million.
00:07:44.720 So 30 million made a hundred and five million opening weekend.
00:07:47.680 Yes.
00:07:48.380 Horror movies are back.
00:07:49.420 They're back.
00:07:50.180 And even,
00:07:50.800 even spoofing them.
00:07:51.820 That's Marlon and all my friends with it.
00:07:53.160 Pat,
00:07:53.320 Can I give you one wild theory that I don't want to spoil it?
00:07:57.040 I don't think it'll give it away, but you tell me to stop if I have to stop.
00:08:00.640 Are you ready for this?
00:08:02.100 Nikki, the girl, isn't just obsessed with Bear.
00:08:05.020 She is Bear's dead cat.
00:08:07.180 You want me to tell you why?
00:08:08.720 You want me to tell you why?
00:08:09.760 Think about it. 0.99
00:08:10.460 She hides in corners and watches him sleep.
00:08:12.860 The way she moves almost feels cat-like.
00:08:14.880 She waits by the door for him all day.
00:08:16.820 Her glowing eyes, remember in that silhouette in that one shot in the mirror
00:08:19.720 where her eyes look like a cat?
00:08:21.280 You remember that? 0.99
00:08:21.860 she literally brings dead things to him
00:08:24.160 just like cats bring gifts to her
00:08:25.980 dead owners. The theory is that Bear
00:08:28.000 made a wish at the One Wish
00:08:30.160 Willow. I wish
00:08:31.120 he loved me more than anyone in the world. His dead
00:08:34.020 cat spirit was nearby and entered Nikki. I don't want to
00:08:36.020 go on to the road. Oh my god. There is
00:08:38.000 five scenes in this movie. Yeah.
00:08:40.880 There's five scenes in this
00:08:42.020 movie. By the way, there's one scene
00:08:43.620 in back rooms where he brings the
00:08:46.060 rope with his two employees and one guy goes
00:08:48.060 downstairs. He comes back up. He sees something and
00:08:50.040 then they go all the way down scary with the bed that's one in back rooms oh and then in this one 0.99
00:08:55.020 where you know i mean there's a there's a handful of scenes her standing in the corner oh my god 0.78
00:09:00.800 when he makes the goes to eat the sandwich takes a bite out of the sandwich and it finds out what's
00:09:04.880 in the sandwich what it's made with i mean it's it's nasty i just have a suggestion yeah you know
00:09:10.580 i'm not the movie guy but you guys your face lights up when you talk about movies i'm clueless
00:09:15.200 Tom hasn't said anything.
00:09:16.580 I'm just bewildered right now.
00:09:19.360 I think there's a room in the marketplace
00:09:21.060 for a new updated version of Siskel and Ebert.
00:09:25.140 I think PBD and Vinny, a movie review, once a week.
00:09:28.340 You guys watch the movies every weekend.
00:09:30.320 I'm proposing this idea.
00:09:32.180 I think you had like a $10 million view clip
00:09:35.360 when you were talking about movies that you recommend for people,
00:09:38.020 whatever those movies are.
00:09:39.160 I want you guys to do something about this.
00:09:41.060 Here's the reality.
00:09:41.800 Make it happen.
00:09:42.280 We're going to make a movie in the next couple of years.
00:09:45.280 You'll hear about it.
00:09:46.020 We're excited about it.
00:09:46.940 I love the fact that the creatives are doing what they're doing.
00:09:50.260 Father's Day is around the corner, and there's one statistic.
00:09:53.280 Guys, you know this, fathers. 0.96
00:09:55.180 Ladies, if you're watching this, we spend a lot more money on mothers 1.00
00:09:58.520 than we do on fathers.
00:09:59.600 We would like to contribute and get our great fathers out there to feel special,
00:10:04.820 and to do so, we did something very special for fathers.
00:10:08.080 Today's the day to do it, and this item you're about to see
00:10:11.020 is going to be limited to only 500, the first 500 that placed the order,
00:10:14.600 you'll be able to make other Father's Days.
00:10:16.860 So having said that, watch this video dedicated to Father's Day.
00:10:21.260 Go ahead, Rob.
00:10:21.920 Folks, I don't know if you know or not,
00:10:23.140 but every year we spend $10 billion more on Mother's Day than Father's Day.
00:10:26.700 We don't get things for fathers.
00:10:28.120 We forget about it.
00:10:29.060 It's just the father.
00:10:30.220 This year we're doing something special.
00:10:31.980 We got a box for all great fathers in the world that says the future looks bright.
00:10:36.700 And here it says Father Protector Provider in the box
00:10:40.180 When that father, that special father, opens it up, he will get a mug that says Future Look Sprite with Father Protective Provider.
00:10:48.560 He'll get a Future Look Sprite hat.
00:10:50.400 They will also get a Future Look Sprite RFID wallet.
00:10:53.260 On top of that, a pen that says Father Protective Provider.
00:10:57.200 And you get the pick and choose four shirts for that incredible father.
00:11:00.860 One of them is the best at ever with Future Look Sprite on the back.
00:11:04.300 The other one will say Father Protective Provider.
00:11:06.840 The third one is raising leaders, building legacy.
00:11:09.280 See, I love every single one of them, but the last one's going to be so special.
00:11:12.080 Ready?
00:11:12.440 Ready for this?
00:11:13.240 It says Grandpa Knows Everything.
00:11:16.060 So if you get that from Papa G.
00:11:17.340 Grandpa, send it to him.
00:11:17.900 Let him open.
00:11:18.400 He's going to be excited.
