Letterboxd pulls its data directly from The Movie Database, an online service that crowdsources information from internet users in much the same way as sites like Wikipedia. This connection has been the cause for similar incorrect information in the past, such as including fan-made (and parody) posters in the official poster selection lineup.<\/p>\n<p>There are multiple \u201cStill Lifes\u201d featured in \u201cBackrooms,\u201d living humanoid organisms generated among the seemingly infinite array of liminal rooms. The concept originates from the YouTube short films (and are alluded to in the original internet image that spawned the IP). One of these Still Lifes serves as the primary antagonist of the film.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBackrooms\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/creative-content\/movies\/backrooms-kane-parsons-obsession-box-office\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">blew up at the box office<\/a> over the weekend, earning $118 million globally and $81.4 million domestic. This matched the previous week\u2019s three-day opening for \u201cThe Mandalorian and Grogu,\u201d which fell to third at the box office. In second place was \u201cObsession,\u201d which made more in its third weekend at the box office than it did in its second \u2014\u00a0and more in its second weekend than its opening. <\/p>\n<p>\t\t<a class=\"the-wrap-read-more__image\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thewrap.com\/culture-lifestyle\/culture\/robert-pattinson-christopher-nolan-batman-first-question\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/The-Batman.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium\" alt=\"Robert Pattinson wearing the Batsuit in &quot;The Batman.&quot;\"   data-portal-copyright=\"TheWrap\" data-has-syndication-rights=\"1\"\/>\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\t<script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Ivy Wolk isn\u2019t in the YouTube-based horror sensation \u201cBackrooms,\u201d despite what Letterboxd would have you believe.
