The director took to Twitter to share his frustration with the numbers. He said in one tweet that he watched the movie with a theater audience during opening weekend, and they cried, laughed, and described the atmosphere as “magical.”

In another tweet, he said that whoever isn’t a “homophobic weirdo” should go watch the movie. Perhaps Eichner needs to realize that sexuality is not a deciding factor in whether people want to go watch a film or not- it is box office weekend for Avengers Endgame, after all. Some replies to his tweet echoed the same sentiment- users saying “if the movie doesn’t look interesting to me, why should I see it?” and “My plans for tonight are based on my availability and interests. Not your career. OKaaay?”
