Nolte: Big Fat Liar Elizabeth Banks Blames Sexism for ‘Charlie’s Angels’ Flop
Breitbart ^ | 18 Nov 2019 | JOHN NOLTE

Posted on 11/18/2019 10:55:00 PM PST by familyop

Prior to Charlie’s Angels (2019) fiery death at the box office, writer-director-star Elizabeth Banks had already formulated sexism as an excuse for her coming flop. Per IndieWire:...Already five major franchises — five — have been killed at the box office after being rebooted to exclude and demean men...And of course, the dried-up harpies blame men...A Wrinkle in Time...Ghostbusters reboot

What is with the shareholders who permit studios to squander their money on politically correct drivel that no one will pay to see? The first responsibility of any studio is to produce and distribute profitable movies, not to lecture and insult the American public.

Maybe it’s because they don’t have a Farrah Fawcett anymore, just bull dykes.

Here's the real gasser FTA:

“If this movie doesn’t make money it reinforces a stereotype in Hollywood that men don’t go see women do action movies.”

As if Hollywood hasn't been stereotyping your average Joe Sixpack for years already? I hope that bloated industry boar hog Harvey Weinstein corners you at a studio party and gives you a good, old-fashioned buggering in a gender-neutral bathroom while in a coke-fueled rage. I'm looking forward to the day when your police mugshot appears at The Smoking Gun with smeared makeup, a black eye and fat lip, dried puke on your chin, and a sandwich board held in front of your udders for instigating a fight and getting a drunken ass-kicking at a Florida cocktail bar, you squealing, self-important, bottle-blonde, Hillary Clinton-supporting bitchface. And I find it interesting that both of your children were born via surrogate mothers, which either makes you a lipstick lesbian, or your 'husband' a fag. In summary, you seem to hate anyone who is Penile Positive, but, like any common street walker, you'll whore yourself out if the price is right.

PS: You suck as an actress.

Exactly. One look at the cast and I wish I could avoid this movie more times than I already am. Add in the opportunity to be scolded for the crime of having a penis, and well, good luck with that.

For years Hollyweird made women out to be empty-headed hormonal fools, or dried up bitter old hags, or scheming gold diggers, etc. Making the guys look similarly bad is not the way forward.

But then again "Death Becomes Her" hit a nerve with a lot of guys married to dried up bitter old gold digging hags.

I don’t know that I’d call Captain Marvel a huge success. It’s foreign box office was a lot better than its domestic.

Their Satanic, Globalist masters (and yes, the big wigs in Hollywood have them) gave their orders.

- Demean (white) men.

- Destroy the notion of men fighting evil as heroic.

- Promote "Diversity."

It isn't (and never was) about making money.

So she writes, produces, directs, and stars in the movie and wonders why it doesn’t have broad appeal at the box office. Hmm... Let me see... I’m sure there is a word for what’s wrong with the movie. Oh yeah, diversity. As in a complete lack of creative diversity. Anything so controlled by a single person is probably just one big ego trip. Add to that the apparent guys are stupid girls are cool agenda that is all the rage in Hollywood right now...and gee, you have the makings of a disaster. In short the movie is a flop because she made it so, and the studio allowed it. Given the recent history of attempted reboots / remakes with this basic formula one has to wonder if the studio did it on purpose. Maybe (hopefully) to kill off any future attempts at something similar.
