Disney (and others) at the Box Office - Current State of Affairs

These are clearly men that I don't hang out with at Sunday brunch.

Likely not.

Favorite movie genres in the U.S. by gender 2018 | Statista

Like music, movies can be hard to pin down when it comes to which genre they are most aligned with.

Was misremembering the gap in the breakdown but was correct in that being the lowest for men.

There are many bad or mediocre actors in Hollywood, even ones who are worse than Gal Gadot. None of them gets the same treatment as Gal does.

Gadot gets inappropriate amounts of hatred, yes, but that is not what is happening here. Her acting is being fairly evaluated. And frankly, I can’t think of many consistently employed actors who are as wooden as Gadot - Sam Worthington? He doesn’t really appear much outside of Avatar. Jai Cortney? He’s pretty much disappeared.

Disney's getting desperate...

So the reviews say the movie is ok and Zegler is great. That would be good news for Disney if she wasn’t one of the most unlikable actresses in Hollywood.

Easy pass.

I couldn’t find a complete list of when the movie opens everywhere but it’ll be in most of Europe, Asia, etc next week so those numbers need to grow fast if it’s going to have any chance at breaking even.

It looks like it's opening everywhere this weekend. [Source: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6208148/releaseinfo/?ref_=tt_dt_rdat]

I think there will be parents with little girls who will go to theater to see this and there are many of them.

Could this be Disney's Barbie?

It’s good to know you condemn and refuse to associate with anyone who dares to use harsh language against those with whom they disagree. It’s very important that we police the rhetoric of the powerful in our society or the level of discourse might degrade a great deal.

I wouldn’t blame you but honestly can’t imagine that happening, I think the worst case scenario is it becomes a state rights issue also, not ideal by any means but even in a worst case scenario you should have 40+ US states that will welcome you and your hubby with open arms.

Stay positive, independent support is something like 80% and even among reps over half support gay marriage, unlike the other can’t be named issue messing with gay marriage would be far more controversial even within their own party.

No harm done then, right? How would you like your basic human rights dependent on the whims of state legislatures or the general populace ?

People don't like unlikeable entertainers ... news at 11!

Will it have the ten minute feminist rant in the middle like Barbie did?

 

[Disstevefan1]

No, that's even better for Snow! A lot of parents with their daughters will go to the theater to see this I suspect.

 

[Chi84]

Yes. It’s replacing 10 minutes of the housecleaning scene.

 

[TalkingHead]

Mixed reviews incoming, mostly good to decent with lots of praise for Rachel. People also like the animals and Dopey.

These first-look blogger posts are the marketing equivalent of Netflix slop.

I’ll guess a 64 percent on Rotten Tomatoes.

 

[Farerb]

I'm guessing 40%-50% with a score of 5.0-6.0

Yeah I’m sure you always in a rush to spend your money supporting people who hate you.

You’re going to need a tall ladder to get off that horse.

I think you missed the point.

Cool! So they are changing the words to Whistle While You Work as Snow White berates the dwarves into cleaning up their own house.

No.

It's character development. We first see her being forced to clean her own castle and then later we see her forcing others to clean their own home.
