Between production and marketing, this stinker probably cost close to $200 million. As a result, Disney’s going to lose a fortune.

Even if over time they finally turn a profit, it won’t be much, and Disney will have stressed about it the entire time. Good.

Movies are terrible these days. No new fresh ideas. Just the same old retread plots only now they are filled with woke BS.

The industry has to be hurting because of the pandemic, too. Movie theaters were shut down and probably continue to struggle.

I try to have compassion for the people who might lose their jobs but then I remember that they hate me so I say good riddance. Why support an entity or business that hates me.

"Disney’s going to lose a fortune"

The reason is simple: not enough diversity. Not enough strong female characters. Not enough homosexuality. Not enough condemnation of the patriarchy. Too much capitalism. Make the whole story about the plight of black transexuals fighting against police brutality. That should be a winning ticket.

Don’t worry. In a few years, Disney will claim the movie as a success and the public will believe them.

I didn't know Disney produced this movie. No wonder it stunk!

It started at the bottom, then went right down.

The trailers look great but no way would I spend a penny to see it. Take a look at the lead’s Twitter responses to the cops and Rittenhouse. What an informed idiot.

The original was woke and preachy for its day. The new version may actually be behind the curve so far as woke PC is concerned. But the discussion is academic. If we haven’t seen the movie, we really don’t know what it is. I may see it eventually and probably won’t love it or hate it.

Disney is happy to fund a huge Virtue Soapbox.

Maybe today’s movie goers are not interested in watching a bunch of Juvenile delinquents jumping around “like a bunch of Kansas City Faggots!” (I stole that from Blazing Saddles.)
