The tv news just did their entertainment segment, and listed the weekend box office results. They said “The Courier is the top-ranking new movie this week, coming in in third place”. It’s so nice to hear third place being given such a positive spin!
Oh, and they even showed a little clip of the movie!

I was thinking on News of the World as a Netflix original but I just remembered that Netflix only bought it for international markets and it was a traditional theatre realese in the USA. Well, I watched it on Netflix! It has made $12 million until now so hopefully The Courier could achieve similar numbers. I am hoping they do something similar that they are doing with other films out there and adding if not some locations at least some showtimes. Next weekend they will realese an action flick with Keanu Reeves that should be a moderate hit but supposedly things will get much better and closing to normal with the King Kong vs Godzilla film. There still will be very few movies out there then so hopefully they don't abandon The Courier.

I was watching the morning news on tv just now, and they’re talking about the weekend’s box office. While the news anchor is speaking, they’re showing scenes from a movie with chasing and shooting. At the bottom of the screen, it says “tThe Courier”. The anchor describes the movie : “Gary Oldman hires a courier . . . “ , and she continues to describe a loud action movie starring Gary Oldman. I don’t understand the mistake - they got it right yesterday!

It was such a bad idea that change of name!
The journalist a horror.

Lol. Poor Gary Oldman but his film did like almost 10 times less money internationally in its entire run than what this movie did in a weekend during a pandemic only in the USA! And I'm not joking, www.boxofficemojo.com/title/tt9207616/?ref_=bo_tt_tiIt seems it wasn't released in the USA.

So now Gary Oldman’s Courier is getting unexpected publicity! There were probably people watching the news, thinking “It was in third place? Sounds good! I’ll have to watch it.” Ha!
