Hollywoke is going broke. There is no such thing as a blockbuster anymore. Most new films are unwatchable garbage and even big marketing dollars don’t draw interest. The recent Disney bomb , The Little Mermaid, is proof. Nothing Disney produces is any good, and even if it was there are too many people who want nothing to do with increasing their bottom line...
Like anything else, film is not dead, it is just temporarily out of sorts because it has lost its mission...
I think we can look forward to the death of the old guard and the emergence of something entirely new...
There were a few theaters that were 'full capacity' opening night that are suspected to be Disney buying out the theaters for the numbers and to make it available for black girls to see (because Ariel looks like them and that's certainly not pandering at all, nosiree).
The studios behind Wonder Woman 1984 and that horrific all female Ghostbusters remake did the same trick too. Same reasons.
Don't forget Captain Marvel; I'm pretty sure that one only hit a billion because they inflated the numbers thus.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't they also try that with Rise of Skywalker or whatever that last Disney Star Wars movie was?
They might have; wouldn't surprise me with how poorly it was received by the fans.
i enjoyed that movie. Shes kinda hot
She's not that hot, but she is arrogant, self-righteous, and better used in a supporting role.
I know this is terrible of me, but I've always thought that Brie Larson has a face for radio and a voice for silent movies. She is a plank of wood that just says the correct talking points.
