I was gonna say, the main star (Brie) did talkshow appearances on schedule before the film released. I think the leftist media had "they couldn't promote the film" locked in the chamber and were always gonna fire it out, Strike or No Strike.
>highest grossing horror movie of the year
Unbelievably based, proves that the strike didnt matter. People seemed even remotely interested in the movie it shows with the Box office numbers.

This about the twentieth time this has been posted. So here’s my hot take.
If the director and writers had been competent instead of nepo babies and diversity hires, the movie would not have required extensive reshoots and would have come out ~12 months ago before the strike happened.
So once again the problem isn’t chuds or a lack of publicity, it’s literally giving a quarter of a billion dollars to a pack of incompetent retards then wondering why you failed., and this
Having a good script and a concept that wasn’t a fucking train wreck might have helped as well.
nope it was the strikes. the cope here defies reality
i've never once seen a movie because i saw the actors talking about it. knowing who is in/made it, a trailer, and a couple posters is all a movie needs for promo.
Yeah, barely anybody does. It might have had a 5% boost in sales. There is plenty of other forms of advertising that reaches a far wider audience than some retarded talk shows.
Really? I'm receptive to a few actors, like if Tom Cruise is in a movie I've got a good chance of watching it, he does some entertaining performances.
Same with directors, if it's a big name I've enjoyed works from in the past, I'll give them a try. Doesn't last forever though, used to like Ridley Scott, after a few absolute turds in a row I'm convinced he's completely out of touch and delusional.

this.
I like this narrative because it encourages Disney to blame the shittiness of their movies on circumstances beyond their control and keep making shitty movies and losing money
If you had two brain cells to rub together you'd infer that because the thread began with a critic bending twice over backwards to defend the flop that maybe critical opinion is in favor of this turd, not against it.

Most likely, but you won't see an equal response of articles about it equivalent to what The Flash got, because that movie was decent while actually legitimately being targeted in bad faith by the media, The Marvels is just ass
don't you need stars first in order to have them promote your movie? I mean, nobody even knows the names of the other 2 actresses and Brie Larson is C-list at best. Samuel L. Jackson also lost a lot of his star power as can be seen with the giga flop that was Secret Invasion, that had him as the leading star.
If nobody promoted Spider-man and we only had adds on tv and some billboards here and there people would still go watch it.
If Cap Mehvel was able to earn 1.4+b in the first movie why it can't now? if only half of those who watched the first went to see this one it would make bank, surely people wanted to watch their fav hero as they said in the first one, right?

Weren't they actually on Kimmel or the other Jimmy? Or at a least Brie was.
I was gonna say, the main star (Brie) did talkshow appearances on schedule before the film released. I think the leftist media had "they couldn't promote the film" locked in the chamber and were always gonna fire it out, Strike or No Strike.
She didn't do talk show appearances until the movie was already released. I don't think it would've made a huge difference either way though.
FNAF says hi. On strike, on streaming the same day as theatrical, highest grossing horror movie of the year

No one likes black woman
The occasional threads that pop up here with nothing but black girl pics that anons fap to says otherwise.
Aren't those ironic?
Black girls that look European don’t count.

In what way?

anon, skibidi toilet gets more viewers than most of the late night shows. The effect would be a few thousand tickets at most
>i've never once seen a movie because i saw the actors talking about it.
i saw mac and me coz of that stupid bit paul rudd does
I've never once seen a movie just because a certain actor was in it or a certain director directed it. I don't get it.

Twitter is mostly bots and has been for a while. Musk is a mortician
Musk is cleaning up X/twitter nicely. He should buy bot-riddled reddlt next.

That means he "follow back" anyone to jack up their followers stat, bots included.

Some of the most beloved and best-selling movies of all time were panned critically at release or survived on word of mouth alone.
This is definitely going to be a cult classic. Theater audiences just couldn’t appreciate the nuance of the film.
Exactly the opposite of the point I was trying to make. Thanks.
English is a pretty tough language. You’ll get it though keep trying.
If you had two brain cells to rub together you'd infer that because the thread began with a critic bending twice over backwards to defend the flop that maybe critical opinion is in favor of this turd, not against it.
>that was the joke
It’s cool bro it’s nuance only a native speaker with iq over 100 could pick up on
Maybe just two or three more layers of sarcasm will numb the pain of daddy not loving you.
It was mom and the vodka does that thanks.

I hope this guy is on Disney's payroll. He isn't doing it for Elon's revenue share, because you have to pay him to enter that.

no no, you misunderstand, they weren't making Cinemaphile threads and twitter posts about it, that's why it flopped
They promoted the shit out of it like nothing else. Fuck trannies.
Yeah, I watch like one hour of tv and I saw the trailer almost every day. Plus advertising on the radio and billboards in the city.
If nobody promoted Spider-man and we only had adds on tv and some billboards here and there people would still go watch it.
