Bunny and the Bull was opened on 27 screens and took a gross of $45,760 in its opening weekend and a total gross of $87,590.


Warp X used different strategies to release different films:
Donkey Punch was a teen orientated film and so it was marketed through posters, adverts and merchandise. Too boost its gross it was released within a school holiday to enable teens to go and view it.
She, A Chinese had a very selective audience and so was not advertised very publicly, instead it had a limited release at the ICA for 2 weeks.
