Steven Spielberg’s Woke ‘West Side Story’ Bombs with $10M Opening
Breitbart ^ | 12/11/2021 | John Nolte

Posted on 12/12/2021 8:04:20 AM PST by marcusmaximus

Director Steven Spielberg’s woke West Side Story remake is a box office catastrophe expected to open in the $10 million range.

How awful is that? Well, do you remember that previous woke catastrophe, In the Heights? It opened to $11.5 million.

West Side Story is projected to bomb harder than In the Heights, lol.

Even so, the In the Heights’ production budget was only $55 million.

What’s the matter with Hollywood these days? Is it the drugs? They’ve become a ridiculous bunch of idiots who think they’re better than everyone else because they care about things that make no sense.

The producers will withdraw the movie, rush some sub titles into it, just like they did with Heaven’s Gate(1980), and it will still bomb.

I have no idea but it looks like it is going to suck. Anything too woke sucks nowadays. Still some good stuff out there. Squid Game (Korean) and Cobra Kai (sequel to Karate Kid movies).

Most of them are the dregs of society and their woke BS helps them fool themselves that they are moral and enlightened. It's a mind game called "virtue signalling" that helps them live with themselves.

Gee, who could have seen that coming?

Nolte: Lack of Subtitles in Spielberg’s ‘West Side Story’ Is Exclusion, Not Inclusion

Oh, wait...

Gee wiz. But the media was saying it was Spielberg’s greatest movie ever! Better than Close Encounters. Better than ET. Better than Jaws. Better than Raiders of the Lost Ark. Better than Schindler’s List. Better than Jurassic Park. Better than Saving Private Ryan.

I don’t think you can trust the media.

Woke-ism fails at every turn.

Same with woke books, woke News broadcast networks ( CNN is crashing),Jussie Smollet, and many others.

IT'S A JOKE TO BE WOKE~!

“Virtue signaling” usually is a strong indicator of sexual perversion and/or corruption/criminal activity of some kind.

Spielberg is a sick freak. I’ve thought that ever since he inserted an oral sex joke in E.T., ostensibly a kid movie. Weird.

Spielberg has been a disaster since he turne hard left. He went from the best Director in Hollywod to nothing. Once upon a time, I would run to one of his movies. Now, I won’t watch a Spielberg movie unless friends I know recommend it and tell me why they recommend it.

He “lost it” long ago. Get woke, go broke is a real phenomenon.
