On Anime

While Anime is a beloved animation style with a rich history and extensive following, our focus here leans towards other forms of animation. This is due to the immense popularity of Anime in online spaces, which is amply covered by other dedicated communities.

This doesn't mean that Anime related conversation is not allowed here, only that it's not our focus. For a dedicated Anime instance, check out ani.social.

On Technical Discussion

While our primary goal is to discuss animated media, conversations about animation techniques and the process of creating animation are also welcome. Whether you're a budding animator seeking to understand more about the industry, or a seasoned professional sharing your experiences, you're welcome here.

Is that good? I've never heard of preview money before so I have no way of saying.

Box office previews are the amount of ticket sales made before the movie officially releases. So it's basically how much money it made from people pre-ordering tickets.

It's slightly underwhelming results, but it's still good.

The budget was $75 million, so it needs to make $187 million to break even (accounting for marketing costs and theaters taking their cut of the profits).
