I'd agree the backlash was from a small percentage with the comments about the original film. Not so much with the political stuff. I know plenty of people who have no skin in the Disney race that have chimed in on it. And not just one side. That comment solidified the vocal minority of the Internet would be relentless. But I think there's a lot more than just them being vocal.
Unfortunately those axes aren’t going to grind themselves.
I always say it's difficult for people to think outside their own experience, which is true for me too.
It's easier to pick on young women.
Comments like this fudge the timeline and gloss over the fact that the anger towards her was already at boiling point well before she made her political remarks. Those remarks were pounced on to vindicate the outrage; they did not give rise to it.
I hadn’t even heard about his statements (which is telling given that pretty much all my celebrity news comes from this forum).
I could care less about reviews. Does it make money or not.
A lot probably will, a lot of others probably won’t, this could be the greatest movie ever made and a large portion of the people who don’t like her will never give it a chance.
If it was really that simple then we wouldn’t have hundreds of thousands of pages across multiple threads discussing the Box Office.
Ridiculous but true, just like a lot of things these days
Aww did someone say something mean about the poor little hate filled millionaire ?
Usually it goes something like this:Is this the part where we say money doesn’t matter and as long as one…”fan”…says it’s “good”…then disney succeeded?
…been at least a month since we rolled down that street
The news/tabloids/youtubers report on what get clicks, it’s more profitable to pick on disliked people.
Honestly I'm not sure. But if there's an avatar movie that is vulnerable, it's this next one in my opinion. So if you off enough people, you might find yourself with a significant drop. If it does another 2bil, well it's probably untouchable. I think the difference with Cameron and Zegler is he's been a proven money maker for a very long time. The big difference, I believe, is Cameron went off on the administration and his opinion about what's happening. Unless there's something different that I haven't seen so please quote if it's something different. What he didn't do was insult and hate and wish ill on the people who voted for him.
How so? I said it was a problem with the original film comments, and that just fueled that vocal group to just keep attacking. That's the timeline. The og film stuff then the political. Did she deserve all the hate for the original movie comments? No. But knowing how people were reacting, makes the political comments even more baffling.
Right. And what did Halle Bailey do?
I don’t remember any outlets (YouTube or other) I watch reporting on any controversial comments from her. Maybe I missed them. I remember a lot of people upset Disney cast a black actor as Ariel but that’s it.
