I’m wondering if he had someone in his ear that just didn’t know what really happened, or something even crazier where this was a weird attempt at creating clickbait to help The Fabelmans. Either way it’s so weird, and it has to be some sort of misunderstanding or misquote.

But this looks really good and figure it ends up with a psa of about $30k. The Fablemans - Still in 4 runs, and the overall gross is about the same as this time last week, but Century City is double last week for some reason, and both the Grove and the Union Sq are way down. The Inspection - Went 5 runs in NY and LA and this is also very good everywhere but (again) lower Manhattan.
