You didn't read that and admit that you were wrong, because you're a sad little boy. Go cry to your mommy, cunt. Nobody here gives a shit about all of your incorrect opinions and your desire to always be the center of attention.Over many different movies, your thesis is go woke, go broke. Hunger Games has a female win the games so it is "woke".

Quote:And none of the Hunger Games actors (unlike Sound of Freedom) have declared their loyalty to Trump so it is "woke".
Quote:My thesis is that technology is killing ticket sales.
Quote:Few movies are worth the price of a theater ticket when you can view it on an 8K TV for almost free, no matter which politician endorses it or which country gives tax credits for making it on their soil. But what if you don't have an 8K and you don't know that 30 days from a movie's opening in theaters it will be streamed? But what if you want to hang out at the movies and then go eat a hamburger and fries while discussing it with your dad/mom or friends? Those will be the majority of customers for theater tickets one of these days. Too bad for theater owners and Hollywood, but technology, not "wokeness", will decrease the number of customers buying tickets.

Quote:Originally posted by 6ixStringJack (November 20th): I'll come right out and say it. I want S&S to fail to break even just because I don't Rachel Zegler to be able to have anybody who can claim that one of her first 4 movies didn't bomb in the box office. But I also feel the need to maintain my own integrity and not call something a flop when it hasn't yet proven itself a flop. And on that note, Ryan Kinel pissed me off yesterday claiming that S&S needs $300 Million to break even. S&S does NOT need $300 Million to break even. S&S needs only $250 Million to break even. These movies are doing badly enough on their own that we don't need people with actual voices out there lying about things like this and discrediting not only themselves, but everybody else who is sick of the woke bullshit and is enjoying watching them all finally fail hard in 2023. So far, S&S is not a flop. It very well could be one by next weekend, but people with YouTube/Twitter presences need to stop calling it a flop until it is actually a flop. ... I hope it fails hard by the 2nd weekend, but until it does I will not call this a flop.
Quote:Originally posted by 6ixStringJack (November 27th): This one is probably going to easily clear $300 Million worldwide because of back-to-back Disney flops. It could even reach $350 Million if nothing else competes with it for the rest of the year. They're already calling Aquaman 2 a flop, so we'll see.
Quote:Originally posted by 6ixStringJack (December 5th): Any chances S&S had of grossing $350 Million are gone now, but it could still hit $300 Million if it keeps its legs and is in theaters long enough. ... I don't imagine that 2 months ago anybody was predicting that out of The Marvels, Wish and S&S the only one that would gross more worldwide than FNAF was going to be this one.
Quote:Originally posted by 6ixStringJack (December 17th): Yeah. I'm pretty sure my revised opinion that it won't make $350 Million was correct. At $290 Million now, I just don't see it happening unless something completely unexpected happens like Bruce finding $20+ Million of international money that fell under the couch cushions. But $300 Million is an absolute certainty now, so even Ryan Kinel with his lie of an inflated break-even number can go bounce on that (although, we all know he's never going to mention Songbirds and Snakes on his channel ever again).
