Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to The Tim Dillon Show. I directed Backrooms. That kid's a fraud. [laughs] That kid's full of shit. He's a fraud. I directed that movie. It was my fucking idea, and that money's mine, and we're coming for your throat. That is my fucking money. $100 million in the opening weekend. Backrooms, someone got lost in a store. That's my money. I directed that. What did they bring in opening weekend, Backrooms? 118 million globally. 118 million globally of my money- [laughs] ... stolen from me by the Hollywood system, by a child. And that other guy, Curry, uh, Barker, Obsession. I directed that. I also directed Obsession. How much did that bring in opening weekend? This is how Hollywood, uh, is gonna repair itself, by the way. We're gonna have, uh, young people, uh, with, uh, uh, inspiring stories. But, so first weekend was 17 million, second weekend 23 million, third weekend 26 million. Global gross surpassed 166 million worldwide, and it had a tiny budget of roughly 750,000 to 1 million. Now, these are undeniably Hollywood success stories, and many of you are out there going, "And does that mean I'm going to have a similar experience?" No.
