68% at Rotten isn’t bombing. I mean it ain’t great, but it ain’t Kandahar or About My Father.
I think the point is “Rotten” has rotted. What we’re seeing isn’t real. Last time I looked, total audience score was 50% versus 95% from their preferred audience.
Another reviewer said blacks currently make up 33% of the audience. The question becomes if they will continue to push it, similar to Black Panther.
My guess is it will do OK. Most little girls and many of their moms aren’t going to care about woke.
But does it have “legs”? And will overseas audiences watch? That is what we’ll find out over the next couple of months.
It didn’t bomb in the box office either. It debuted at #1 and raked in over $100 mil domestically.
When they are manipulating the voting, you don't get real numbers. Same problem we had in 2020 and 2022.
