| 0:00.0 | Hello everyone, and welcome to Slash Film Daily. Today's Monday, November 18th, 2024. On today's episode of the show, we're going to be talking about the weekends box office numbers and a little bit of movie news. My name is Ben Pearson. I'm an editor at slashfilm.com and I'm joined on today's episode by Slashfilm's staff writer and box office analyst Ryan Scott. |
| 0:16.2 | Hey, hey, everyone. How's it going? Ryan, before we start today, I wanted to give a shout out to a listener |
| 0:22.2 | named Alex who wrote in with a question a couple months ago, and they said, I'm paraphrasing the |
| 0:27.8 | question, but basically it was, hey, I watched long legs the other day, and I noticed that there |
| 0:32.5 | are something like five or six different production company logos that showed up in front of |
| 0:37.2 | the movie, can you |
| 0:38.4 | tell me what each of those companies actually did? And I was like, you know what? I've been doing |
| 0:43.2 | this for like 15 years in this career, more than that. And I don't think I actually can answer |
| 0:49.1 | that question adequately. I have guesses about what they do. I have assumptions about what each of those companies did, |
| 0:55.3 | but I couldn't definitively say this company did that and this other company did this other |

| 1:08.0 | long legs to explain that process to me and answer that question. |
| 1:12.8 | So I published that article this morning. I think it turned out really well. So shout out to |
| 1:17.4 | Alex for asking the question. And this just goes to show that if you have a good question |
| 1:20.7 | and you send it into us at B. Pearson at slashfilm.com, I might actually answer it and turn it into |
| 1:26.7 | an article at Slashfilm. So I encourage people to answer it and turn it into an article at slash film. |
| 1:27.6 | So I encourage people to check out that article because I think it answers some interesting |
| 1:32.9 | questions and kind of goes behind the scenes of how especially indie film productions work |
| 1:37.2 | these days. |
| 1:37.7 | Huge compliments to you for digging into this because it is one of those things that people |
| 1:42.2 | don't really think about. |
| 1:44.0 | And it's even a thing that family |
