"Bull's Coming" movie confirmed off theaters Aug 17, but the narrative just leveled up.
Director's mom + 5 years DIY animation. Zero marketing. 9 days = $1K box office. Then Chinese retail went full degen: memes, ironic viewings, "bull market" wordplay pumped it to $530K.
Now the movie's gone, but the ticker stays. Director only follows one account on Douyin: a stock trading app.
This is $PNUT playbook. Peanut the squirrel died → meme went parabolic. Movie exits → meme enters. $PNUT carried rage + rebellion. Bull's Coming carries retail hope + bull market cope.
Meme token dumped from $4.1M mcap to $1.7M on delisting news, bounced back to $2.5M. Early hands feared no movie = no narrative. New money realized: movie dying IS the most meme thing that could happen.
Retail doesn't need the film. They need the symbol. And now it's immortal.
