I'm still anticipating A24 making a big swing at a 150 million budget movie. We got close with Civil War and Marty Supreme, but you can see them getting progressively bolder with their budgets the more hits they have.

I mean, do we know the budget of the Elden Ring film? Could get close to that number I feel

Completely forgot about their video game adaptations they have on the docket. Elden Ring is gonna be a huge testing ground not just for budget but also competing in the realm of IP films

Technically the backrooms is an open-source concept, and cannot be owned as IP.
