Regardless of whether the movie is actually good or not this kind of shit should be illegal.
‘COYOTE VS ACME’ is now expected to be shelved and deleted forever.
Warner Bros wanted $75M - $80M for the film and rejected offers from Netflix, Amazon & Paramount, refusing to let them counter-offer.

Difficult not to be completely blackpilled by what audiences want and the state of the industry right now. We got one of the best blockbusters to come out in years and it’s failing for reasons that are both sensical yet hard to understand compared to what will make billions.
‘FURIOSA’ earned $10.7M in the film’s second domestic weekend, a 59% drop
The film has currently earned around $90M worldwide on a $160M budget.

There’s literally a passage in that awful MCU book where the authors frame men taking steroids and undergoing intensive workout routines and diets as a step towards gender equity. And don’t make me tap the “Everyone is Beautiful and No One is Horny” sign again.
Hollywood found out it was problematic to ask actresses to lose weight to be seen as attractive so they just do it to men instead

Also a (relatively minor but not insignificant) reason the theatrical experience isn’t seen as worth it to people anymore: vast amounts of people act like basic etiquette is optional.
This response to someone asking not to be on the phone in a theater is so insane to me. I said it elsewhere but the first century of moviegoing was spent with people simply not being on call for two hours of the day. Cell phones have really destroyed our brains

Yes because they’re juiceless directors whose attempts at “style” are empty pastiches of real movies.
So the Russo Brothers gave us four of the best Marvel films of all time (what they pulled off and how well they pulled it off with IW and Endgame is nothing short of a miracle ) and now… check notes… People hate them?

The ensuing abuse of Jones’ voice through AI by movie studios (Disney) for their shitty IP slop in the forthcoming years is going to be nauseating.

Prediction: the movie will end with the Fantastic Four going through some kind of space-time-multiverse Thanos or Loki-ass rift that will send them into the main MCU universe. There now you don’t have to see the movie.

He also teases that the film is set in an alternate universe to the main MCU.

The fact that the strikes (which were good, but we were warned they’d effect the 2024 output) probably pushed marketing campaign back and COVID shortening theatrical runs to train audiences to just wait until it comes onto VoD in two weeks is arguably more to blame.
