Joker Folie À Deux Box Office: Is The Coverage Sexist

If we’re comparing apples to apples, Variety’s headline for The Marvels at the time was, “‘The Marvels’ Flops at International Box Office With $63 Million, Dramatically Behind 2019’s ‘Captain Marvel’.” The discrepancy in numbers comes from whether or not publications use the metric of global box (i.e. including domestic) office or international box office. The Marvels scored better than Joker: Folie à Deux domestically, whereas the latter did better internationally.
