It may be just me but I;ve heard conspiracy theories on how Black Panther made money because at the cineplex, there was almost no one in line for it during the 7 pm showings. A couple of people noticed that too. I read the leftwing orgs and celebrities paid for the tickets in advance..
Uh, no.
It is a VERY popular movie———most people buy their tickets in advance these days,ergo no lines.
.
They were not going to allow it to fail. It was promoted to the hilt. It would have blown up in their faces if it had failed (because of all the social justice warrior crap they put into it.) and so they pulled out all the stops to create the impression that it was going to be great.
I also had read that people were not allowed to vote it down at Rotten Tomatoes.
I think some of the numbers for it are phoney, and I wonder how big a promotion budget they put out for it?
It's just you.
Yeah and churches bought out theaters for that Christian song movie. Happens all the time.
There ya go.
It was a good action superhero movie. They didn’t put in social justice themes so didn’t p!$$ off any potential audience. It’s worth watching if you like superhero movies.
