  • Yes, Red State Voters Helped Tank 'Snow White' Box Office

    Disney's live-action remake of "Snow White" is out in theaters, and with a miserable $42.2 million opening weekend, it's already proven to be a historic flop. The film, starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot, cost at least $270 million to make, with tens of millions, if not more, spent on advertising. Given distribution and exhibition costs, it's likely Disney needed the film to make at least $800-850 million globally to break even. With the importance of the domestic market, US grosses needed to reach at least $400 million to give the entertainment giant a chance at profitability. It might not...
  • Snow White and the empty cinemas: Embarrassing photos show deserted theatres with NO bookings in primetime slots as woke-buster becomes 'hilariously abysmal' flop

    The crisis facing the Walt Disney Company over its controversial Snow White reboot deepened today amid pictures of empty cinemas and screens with no bookings in primetime slots following a poor opening weekend. Studio bosses had hoped that the reboot of the 1937 original, which had a budget of more than $270million (£210million), would launch with at least £79million ($100million) in ticket sales. But the movie starring Rachel Zegler and Gal Gadot took just $87.3million (£67.4million) globally including $43million (£33million) in the US after a slow start followed a slew of negative reviews. Meanwhile, in mainland China, Snow White ranked...

    I don’t keep up with what Disney is doing. What they did to the Star Wars franchise is unforgivable. Yet, the new Snow White movie starring Rachel Zegler, a pro-Hamas clown, is getting bombed harder than Gaza right now, as critics and theater-goers are decidedly not watching this movie:
  • Dwarf actors' fury at Snow White remake where they've been replaced with CGI characters - as they accuse Disney of 'discrimination' and damaging their careers for the sake of political correctness

    Dwarf actors have shared their outrage at Disney's Snow White remake over the use of CGI characters, claiming it's 'discriminating in a sense' and could damage their careers. In the upcoming live-action film, set to be released in the UK on 21 March, the seven dwarves have been replaced by computer-generated 'magical creatures'. But the move has been criticised by dwarf actors, including those who have played the 'much loved' roles in Snow White pantomimes and now fear that they could lose their livelihood over the American company's decision. Bodybuilder and performer Choon Tan, 31, from north London, who has...
  • Tom Hanks Faces Brutal Backlash From Trump Supporters After Mocking Them in SNL Sketch

    During Saturday Night Live’s 50th anniversary episode, leftist Hollywood actor Tom Hanks crossed the line with a cruel mockery of Trump supporters, sparking outrage across conservative circles. In the skit, Hanks gleefully ridiculed hardworking Americans who support the president, painting them as out-of-touch, foolish, racist idiots. The sketch, which many are calling despicable, adds fuel to the growing animosity from Hollywood elites toward everyday citizens who hold conservative views. For many, Hanks’ participation in this blatant attack is yet another example of the left’s relentless disdain for those who don't share their progressive agenda.AdvertisementHanks first portrayed a controversial character named...

    Two daughters of the man who helped build Target into a national retail powerhouse criticized the company’s decision to do away with its diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) policies in the wake of the election of President Donald Trump. Anne and Lucy Dayton, whose father Bruce Dayton and his four brothers expanded their family-owned Minneapolis-based department store and turned it into what is today known as Target, penned a letter to the editor of both the Los Angeles Times and Financial Times on Thursday decrying the change. “As members of the Dayton family, we are shocked and dismayed by Target’s...

    Oh, Deere The largest farming-equipment manufacturer in the world, John Deere, unveiled a new crop of autonomous tractors and trucks at CES 2025 earlier this week, as the heavy-machinery giant looks to capitalize on the buzz around all things self-driving. If your immediate thought is that this sounds like a job killer... it is. John Deere has talked up its machines’ capabilities for precisely that purpose: to help alleviate some of the labor-shortage issues that farming faces, with the company’s chief technology officer, Jahmy Hindman, saying that “there is not enough available and skilled labor” to do the kind of...

    Allstate CEO Tom Wilson received a measure of backlash after he insisted that Americans must respond to the New Orleans terror attack by accepting people’s “imperfections and differences.” Wilson made the comments after ISIS supporter Shamsud-Din Jabbar drove into crowds in the early hours of New Year’s Day, killing 14 and injuring at least 35. Jabbar posted a video online professing his support for Islamic State shortly before going on the rampage, according to authorities. In remarks coinciding with the start of the Allstate Sugar Bowl in New Orleans, the corporation’s CEO suggested the attack was a reminder of the...

    Democratic strategist James Carville, who coined the phrase “It’s the economy, stupid,” admitted his predictions for the 2024 race were wrong and that Democrats lost because of the economy. Carville, in an opinion piece for The New York Times, noted that while he truly believed Harris would win the election, he is reviewing what went wrong for Democrats since President-elect Trump’s decisive victory in November. “I’ve been going over this in my head for the past two months, all the variables, all the what-ifs, all the questions about Joe Biden’s re-election decisions and what kind of Democrat or message might...

    Kamala Harris campaign advisor Lindy Li announced she’s leaving the Democratic Party over its continuing shift toward woke radicalism and intolerance of dissenting viewpoints. Li, a DNC Finance Committee member who was tasked with overseeing the Harris campaign’s finances, explained Wednesday on Piers Morgan’s “Uncensored” that since pointing out the “stench of loser” hanging over the Democrat Party in the wake of Kamala’s resounding defeat, she’s been targeted for harassment and canceling by her former peers. “As soon as I said that, there were boycott campaigns against me. Unblock-unfollow campaigns. I lost 40,000 followers in four days,” Li said. “They...

    CNN commentator and former Obama advisor Van Jones admitted during a recent podcast appearance that President Trump is “smarter” than “all of his critics” and that he made the entire Democrat party and Democrat media complex “look like idiots.” These remarks came during an interview posted to political commentator Chris Cillizza’s YouTube channel on Friday. Cillizza agreed with Jones’ assessment that “we look like idiots,” commenting, “You’re totally right.” Jones’ revelation is in response to Trump defying all attempts to steal the 2024 election with a sweeping victory on November 5, winning every swing state, 312 electoral votes, the national...

    Lower prices and social justice are not in conflict, and Democrats should do a better job of declaring that these goals do reinforce each other, to everyone’s benefit.In the wake of Democrats’ losses in this year’s election, questions have been raised about the party’s progressive wing, with some claiming that “woke is dying.” There are indeed lessons to learn, but Democrats should not abandon their core values. Obviously, elections are won by appealing to a broad base. Going too far left or right undermines that. Though President-elect Donald Trump is mostly on the extreme right, he apparently appealed to enough...

    Shaquille O'Neal says he's bored with basketball. The former Los Angeles Lakers center reacted to a recent report about the NBA's declining ratings by claiming that the league has become too predictable-and he quickly pointed to Stephen Curry, the master of three-pointers, as the reason. According to a report by Sports Media Watch, ratings for the first two days of the 2024-2025 NBA season dropped by as much as 47% compared to last year, depending on the game. O'Neal didn't hold back on finding a reason for the ratings decline. On the latest episode of "The Big Podcast with Shaq,"...

    An uber-woke, $65K-a-year New York City private school will allow “emotionally distressed” students to skip class the day after the election next week — in an eyebrow-raising move that drew ire from comedian Jerry Seinfeld, whose kids once attended the elite institution. In an email titled “Election Day support,” Ethical Culture Fieldston School upper school principal Stacey Bobo vowed to “create space to provide students with the support they may need” in the wake of the White House race, the New York Times reported. Students will not be assigned homework on Election Day and there will be no assessments on...
  • ‘Indiana Jones And The Great Circle’ To Feature Disclaimer Clarifying That Developer MachineGames’ Decision To Use Nazis As Enemies “Should Not Be In Anyway Construed To Condone, Glorify, Or Endorse” Their Ideology

    For most people, it’s understood that when a creator chooses to depict something ‘evil’ in a piece of fiction, especially when that something is also portrayed in-universe as explicitly ‘bad’, said creator is not endorsing a given behavior or ideology, but rather using it for narrative purposes, often to contrast the moral differences between a protagonist and their opposition. However, the same apparently does not ring true for the video game industry’s ‘modern audience’, as like many games before it, Indiana Jones and The Great Circle will feature a very performative disclaimer assuring players that despite developer MachineGames’ decision to...

    The Primanti Brothers restaurant chain is apparently owned and operated by hardcore left-wing activists. About a month ago, it was reported in the Daily Mail the restaurant chain kicked out all of the regular dining patrons so they could stage actors as a campaign event for Kamals Harris in the Pittsburgh area. The Harris campaign bussed in the press pool and a group of campaign supporters, essentially actors, to stage a photo shoot meet and greet and manufacture the appearance of support for Kamals Harris. The August event was presented as “ordinary diners,” but was in fact a group of...

    STURGIS, South Dakota — A growing online political movement is trying to enlist Sturgis Motorcycle Rally attendees into pressuring Harley-Davidson to fire its chief executive for supporting climate change policies and diversity and inclusive programs. The movement is led by Robby Starbuck, a popular online conservative activist who targets companies over policies and practices he considers part of a diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) progressive agenda. “Bikers @SturgisRally are going to be spreading the word about this,” Starbuck posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Friday. “Harley is hoping this all blows over.
