Chapter 315. A Case Study
[Action Hero] spreaded like a fire in a jungle among teens and they filled the theatres to watch it. Some of them watched it a few times as it was a great experience to watch it with friends.
One more thing was that Titan studios made the tickets dirt cheap for teenagers, making it the ideal choice for them to watch this.
This was Ava's plan and it completely crushed [Stars on the Ground]. The movie had a below average weekend and having any hope of it even touching its budget was stretching too far.
United Pictures was already frowning at the loss, especially at the hands of an indie movie which had become a rage out of nowhere.
It should be noted that the original budget was over 60 million dollars, so Aiden was glad he missed this trainwreck. Though, when he was about to sign it, the situation was very different.
If not for the miracle that was [Action Hero], the movie would have actually managed to break even.
