Already done Our article's infobox already shows this, guessing you're referring to the "infobox"-like thing google pulls up which we do not control Cannolis (talk) 18:51, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
Music related categories?
editWhile not on the indisputably defining list of applicable categories, googling "Ben Stiller drummer" does provide a relatively wide array of reliable sources discussing his experience as a drummer, so I think this should be up for consideration at least. 181.115.61.81 (talk) 06:49, 6 January 2024 (UTC)
Edit Request under "Directorial Debut" section
editThe page states that Reality Bites (1994) "debuted as the highest-grossing film in its opening weekend". Upon checking the industry standard for box office information (Box Office Mojo), this claim can only be made if considering that most films appeared to only report grosses for the 4 day presidents day weekend, rather than the typical friday-sunday weekend. While most films now a days will report both the 3 and 4 day grosses, it is not uncommon for older films' box office performance to be largely on the word of the studio.
In the 3 day weekend, only 3 films reported any gross, one of which was "Reality Bites". Given that the 4-day weekend haul has more than 3 films with reported grosses, it can be assumed that more than 3 films played throughout the weekend, and that Reality Bites was likely the only major film to report the 3 and 4 day box office hauls.
Given that Reality Bites' 4 day haul was the 5th most of any film in that weekend, it can be assumed that the film was NOT the "highest grossing film in it's opening weekend", as that technicality defies common sense based on information available about the 4 day haul.
