19. "It would have been news if it wasn't the biggest" In response to In response to 18 Fri Jan-08-16 01:00 PM by SoulHonky
As a political writer tweeted, reporting Netflix's boasts is like taking poll numbers from a campaign. By "we don't know what it means", I mean that we have zero frame of reference as to how big it was or how much bigger it was or how it compares to his usual theatrical releases. To say it was the biggest is nothing to me. It really should be no surprise that this movie was the most watched given the way they pushed it.
Either way, I just think the "Sandler won" comment is kind of bizarre and meaningless. He made a shit movie that a lot of people watched. It's what he's done for most of his career.
