Producing movies nobody wants to see seems like a poor business model.

Weird, weird.
It’s almost like telling people that she didn’t want their business actually had them not giving her business.

Disney has no one to blame but themselves. And Rachel Zeigler will have no one to blame for killing her career with her toxicity. Maybe she and Jussie Smollett can cry on each other’s shoulders.

This past weekend Snow White was #4 at the box office. Surpassed by A Minecraft Movie, A Working Man, and in the third position was The Chosen: Last Supper.

That's not getting more widely noted, that a Christian film by an independent studio has beaten a Disney production costing hundreds of millions.

Disney should have just sent this soulless misfire straight to their streaming service Disney plus.

I heard NPR even call it ‘No’ White.

Their stock took a 24% dive in the last month and has not been this low of a price since may 2014

I want to see this company go bankrupt.

I’m actually angry that my kids could not enjoy Disney like I did when I was a kid because of the scumbags running the company

I shut Disney off for them in 2018 and that was it.

All I heard leading up to the premiere was how badly her remarks were torpedoing it. I thought it came and went two years ago!

$5.94 million in Snow White's third USA weekend.

https://www.boxofficemojo.com/release/rl3856302849/?ref_=bo_hm_rd

Variety and Deadline Hollywood estimate the film budget at $240-$270 million. That might not include advertising.

Box Office General Rule - 50% to theaters, 50% to film producer.

$500 million to break even could be a little low.

The fans told Disney for years they did not want this version of Snow White. Disney’s response you will take what we give you and like it. Disney forgot that the consumers have choices. Minecraft from all the reports is a really stupid movie but is on its way to make billions! I think this is the fans way of spitting in the eye of Disney Executives who would not listen.

Disney is on a slow march to death. Rachael Zeglar and Woke movie making are merely symptomatic of the gangrene that’s killing a once beloved powerhouse.

I don’t know what all the comments are about mixed race and not so white, etc. The original Snow White in the cartoon had black hair. This Rachel actress has black hair, big deal. She is not obviously mixed anything. She has black hair, big deal. I watched the trailers for this movie and the movie looked ok. The costume for Snow White is obviously adapted from the original cartoon. I did not watch the whole movie so I don’t know why it is bombing. But other than the Rachel actress has a big nasty mouth, she was not obviously a miscast, and people ought to quit saying so because that part is just plain not so.

Tip to young women... your college politics are not popular in the real world.

Without USAID the Worldwide LGBT Movement is dead.

Disney’s political-soft-porn is nor popular.

β€œ It has been reported that when home entertainment numbers are added”

I doubt that will help much. Disney will release it on its own streaming service. I doubt anyone will subscribe to Disney + just to watch Snow White.

Supposedly they had updated and re imagined the story for today’s world.

As Rachel said, it’s not 1937 anymore, the Snow White character doesn’t need a prince to save her, he was a stalker ,and she’s going to be the leader she was meant to be.

Apparently all the girl power and being the leader she was meant to be doesn’t appeal to audiences.

Can’t we have a fairy tale and adhere to the original story? Does everything have to be politically correct nowadays.
