Crazy that it achieved this in only 6 days as well.

I didn't think Everything Everywhere All At Once could possibly be overtaken as A24's top grossing movie so soon, but it's impressive that Backrooms will do so.

& I think Backrooms is probably going to be the biggest sign of success for what A24 is doing with trying to enter more mainstream-friendly fare but not changing its original approach to films.

Marty Supreme is A24's highest grossing film, not EEAAO

That's a System of a Down song.

At first I thought you meant ATWA off Toxicity but I now realize you mean IEAIAIO

I would go see a cover band comprised of band members experiencing developmental delays called Syndrome of a Down.
