Barbie could be the worst movie of 2023 and still make 200 millz

Twitter is not reality. I have no idea why some of you have not been able to learn that lesson yet with the way that almost everything that gets hyped up on Twitter turns into a bust in reality

This could be a Paul W. S. Anderson movie starring Milla Jovovich as Barbie and James Spader as Ken and still make 200 millz. Twitter has nothing to do with that. 200 millz is not a lot. S.W.A.T made 200 millz. A Dog's Purpose made 200 millz. fukking Yogi Bear (2010) made 200 millz.



All Twitter hype apparently. It is not even on the Fandango poll, and audiences obviously are not into Margo Robbie when even her Harley Quinn projects are not resonating


I don't even know how this reply touches on anything I said. This has nothing to do with Twitter or Margot Robbie. This is Barbie.
Barbie as a brand is a bigger name then most, if not all, the things on this list.
Also, who cares if it flops?



Then why is it not on the list? If you do not care then why even bring up how you can guarantee its success?

You know anybody can make lists, right? They are not infallible.
Also I think it's clear you don't read what other posters post because I was literally tagged by another poster regarding Barbie success. I didn't bring it up.

That is a Fandango, the number one seller of theater tickets in America, though, and that is from the general population. Twitter does not produce hits. The general population actually is responsible for that. The first trailer being an homage to cinephiles is not going to help that either. Oppenheimer is at 36,000,000 trailer views on YouTube. Barbie is at 7,000,000 on its trailer. Barbie appears to be another Twitter thing, but you can believe whatever you want

Ah, okay. Sorry, it took me awhile to figure out your were trolling. I'll be more careful in the future.

Yeah, you are perpetually online and have no shame about that. Hopefully, your tenuous grasp on reality is not upended altogether when Barbie inevitably is not the next Transformers

At least this negro got paid he added nothing to the film. I would he was part of the cast until he 50 sec scenes, over and over again.

I really wanted to see this due to my infatuation of the aftermath involving silent actors having to adapt to the modern cinema.


Yet the trailer looks like dogshyt and feels out of place to the essence of what the plot is about.


It seems like one of those Gen Z takes of history ala the Elvis movie which was pretty alright.

The trailer is a bad take on the movie..most of the trailer is like the first 30 mins of the film

I remember listening to a podcast where one of the dudes was talking about wanting to see the movie. He made it seem like it was an in depth look at the horrors that most silent actors/actresses endured during the transition. Reading about those dark times in Hollywood entice me to want to see what was in store.

You got Brad Pitt, Margot Robbie, and friggin Toby McGuire. SIGN ME THE fukk UP! :krs:

Then I have finally seen the trailer :huhldup: . Then the reviews :picard:, the box office numbers:damn:, and the fact that it was 3 fukkING HOURS!!

This should have been a slam dunk for Hollywood to bring it back to the essence. Instead, the shyt looks like a fever dream of old heads trying to market such a time to the younger demographic, instead of keeping it a buck and show the dark side of Hollywood from some of those silent actors being murderers, adulterers, suicidal manic lunatic because they had to actually act instead of relying on "NEXT SCENE", and one of the greatest silent film actors dying suddenly causing mass hysteria within the industry.

Why can't Hollywood get out of this happy-go-lucky bullshyt, and take it back to reality. Leave the goofy shyt for action popcorn movies. Excuse my snobbish cinema bytching, but I'm getting tired of getting fukked over by these binders of shyt movies lately.
