Although box office grosses, for the most part, were muted thanks to low turnout on Super Bowl weekend, Oscar-nominated shorts saw an increase from last year. Shorts.TV and Magnolia Pictures rolled out their annual release of the 15 nominated short films, which grossed $1.11 million from screenings of the live action, animated and documentary categories.

Because of the shorter timespan between nominations and Oscar Sunday, the shorts were released on 460 screens, the widest release the annual showcase has ever received on opening weekend since it started 15 years ago. Last year, the opening weekend for the shorts yielded $938,455 from 270 screens.

Meanwhile, Oscar contenders “Parasite” and “Jojo Rabbit” continue to bring in awards enthusiasts, with “Parasite” adding $1.67 million this weekend while “Jojo” adds $1.35 million. “Jojo Rabbit” now has a domestic total of just under $28 million, while “Parasite” has a North American total of $33.4 million.
