Don't worry they may turn on the Disney bots machine for this one. So you'll get reviews that say "Great film, amazing cast. It's a cartoon and has action."

'Strange World' Disney's 2022 Animated Film

There's your conspiratorial tautology:
It's a bad movie if it gets bad reviews.
And if it gets good reviews, it's a bad movie because of bots.
It's a textbook fallacy and you keep saying this over and over is just trolling.
But... do you troll?... Hmmm....
You're rooting for failure. That's pathetic.

I'm only rooting against it because of the blind loyalty that people are showing to it. .... And seemingly everything Disney churns out. If I felt it was decent (which it isn't) then I wouldn't take such pleasure in it's inevitable demise.
And you have seen the movie??? Personally I am not seeing it in theaters as IMO the trailers have been meh…I will probably wait for Disney plus… I can’t say the movie is poor or great as I have not seen it.
All we can judge at this point is whether the trailer is good or not.
To root for it to fail… you must be a very unhappy person that you relish that much in others failures

I already have my ticket for tomorrow night. I’ve been tracking Rotten Tomatoes as the reviews have started rolling in. At one point today, it was up to 85% positive. Right at this moment, it is 72%. I’ll say this much: The good reviews are VERY good (Hollywood Reporter called it a new classic) but the bad reviews are VERY bad. Midwest Film Journal (whatever that is) called it “an excessively busy, boorish behemoth sweating mightily to bury its basic, boring story”.
Regardless, I’m looking forward to seeing it tomorrow.

72% Rotten Tomatoes score.
Just out of curiosity, how much is a C- Rotten Tomatoes score worth at a deposit window down at the Burbank branch of Bank of America?
Teller: Good afternoon, how can I help you?
Sharp Pencil Guy: I'd like to make a deposit into our Strange World account, please.
Teller: Yes, sir. Cash or check?
Sharp Pencil Guy: I've got $48 Million in cash. But I also have a screenshot of a Rotten Tomatoes score of 72%, so can we credit that for at least another $10 Million in cash? It had a production budget of $150 Million, so my boss isn't real happy right now.
Teller: I'm sorry, we only take cash or checks on corporate accounts.
Sharp Pencil Guy: I forgot to mention the Sacramento Bee called the film "pleasant and colorful". That's gotta be worth something, right?
Teller: Just cash or checks at this window, sir. You might try one of those online crypto places? FTX?

If you bothered to read my post or do your own research, you would realize that all reviews are not in yet. It was as high as 85% today…currently at 72%. Could change for better or worse as new reviews come in. Once again, I have absolutely no idea why a supposed Disney fan is rooting for a Disney film to fail. I mean, I know why the phobes want it to fail, but you claim to be part of the community. Don’t get it, at all.72% Rotten Tomatoes score.

Is an 85% Rotten Tomatoes score worth more at the Bank of America deposit window? The teller said cash or checks only, remember.
I ask this honestly... is there a 2SLGBTQQIA+ character in Strange World? Or am I reading your text wrong there?
If there is a 2SLGBTQQIA+ character in Strange World, who is it? And why? How does it improve the plot and story over having that character be straight or simply not mention their sexuality at all? In a film marketed at children and families, that's risky. I haven't heard anything about there being a Gay in Strange World in the media, but then I haven't heard anything about Strange World at all in the media. Disney seems to have already cut their losses and abandoned all marketing for it.
I don't want any Disney produced film to fail. I want to see Disney succeed. I mean, I sold the last of my DIS stock many months ago, so I don't care financially any longer. But I do still care as a longtime fan of the product and brand.
I want Disney to make blockbuster animation films released at Christmas that American families willingly will shell out 15 bucks apiece to go see together and get that Disney experience as generations of Americans have before them. This world needs that kind of thing now more than ever.

What exactly is a “2SLGBTQQIA+” character? Are you just trying to be offensive again?Is an 85% Rotten Tomatoes score worth more at the Bank of America deposit window? The teller said cash or checks only, remember.

It's the approved acronym that the kids use now.
You're younger than me, but try and keep up.
2S = Two Spirit (Makes more sense West of the Rockies. It'll get to the East Coast eventually.)
L = Hello, ladies!
G = Gaaaaaayyyyyy!
B = But only after three beers.
T = Transgender. Duh.
Q = Queer? (I think. I have no idea what that might mean operationally, however.)
Q = Questioning? (I think. Probably related to the B after three beers, the morning after.)
I = Intersex (The mind boggles, and this is a family site, so just let that one go.)
A = Androgynous? (I think. I may be wrong. It's probably one of those things only college kids know.)
+ = Everyone else! Up With People!

Asexual
Ethan Clade is the character in question, the youngest of the Clades.
Based on the description sounds like its just a crush - don't see the issue

Oh, that's it! I knew Androgynous wasn't quite right, but my old brain couldn't think of what other options might be out there. At least after someone's had three beers.
Ah, okay.

You and I don't see the issue, but it's risky when you are trying to get an American family of four in Boise or Bangor or Birmingham to lay out $60 to go see a kids movie on Thanksgiving weekend.
Did it strengthen the story and advance the plot? Or was it just added to look cool to people who don't actually buy tickets to Disney family movies?

It's not offensive. It's the approved acronym for college kids and anyone with a Blue check mark.
Again, you're younger than me, but it's important us non-kids try and keep up.

Wait a second. I just thought about it. If you're Asexual, who would even care? Except...
I think of all the times we ran up huge bar tabs on a Saturday night working the room... and if I wasted all that money on a cute guy who then said at last call "Sorry, I'm Asexual. I'm just here to play darts.", I would have been furious!

Strange World has a 2SLGBTQQIA+ character in it.
My opinion is that is risky when making a Disney animated movie aimed at American families with young children.
It also impacts where the movie can be released overseas. As Lightyear showed, it prevents the movie from being released in Arab countries, the Palestinian territories, or Communist China.
It limits the financial success of the movie, so it better be darn well important to the plot and not just added by HR to look hip.
