STRETCH ARMSTRONG
Budget: $115,000,000
Total Box Office: $144,189,611
Total Profit: -$71,990,745
Despite recognizable IP, star power, and the creative pairing of Phil Lord & Christopher Miller, Stretch Armstrong failed to gain traction with audiences and became the costliest disappointment of Season 36 so far. The toy adaptation now stands as a reminder that even major stars and big concepts are no guarantee of box office success.
BOX OFFICE FACT
Despite his reputation as one of Hollywood’s most bankable stars, Ryan Gosling’s LRF track record remains surprisingly uneven. Following Stretch Armstrong, Gosling now owns a 6-for-11 success rate (55%) at the box office across his studio appearances.

1995
Budget: $13,000,000
Total Box Office: $40,003,252
Total Profit: $15,766,699
A modestly budgeted coming-of-age drama, 1995 quietly became one of Round 3’s strongest financial performers. While far from a blockbuster, the film proved that smaller-scale storytelling can still find commercial footing within LRF.
BOX OFFICE FACT
1995 marks the 20th LRF project written by Joshua Collins. Despite being the lowest-budgeted film of the group, it ranks as his 12th highest-grossing project.

DOUBLE DATE
Budget: $20,000,000
Total Box Office: $80,369,160
Total Profit: $32,000,017
Romantic Comedy finally became a winning genre for writer Jacob Jones as Double Date turned into one of the quieter commercial success stories of the season. Strong audience turnout and controlled costs helped the film become an easy profitability win — and a potential blueprint for future rom-coms at the studio.
BOX OFFICE FACT
The fourth Romantic Comedy written by Jacob Jones became not only his highest-grossing entry in the genre, but also his first profitable one, following the financial failures of Corndog (Season 18, -$33M), Dating Vanessa (Season 30, -$29M), and Guy on the Fly (Season 31, -$21M).
