I have read books on Oppenheimer and enjoy the subject matter, and liked the movie.
But for the average movie goer I doubt they will like this movie too much.
I think they will all be shaking their heads coming out saying 'I was tricked, we shoulda went to see Barbie.'
If it were made by another other filmmaker than Christopher Nolan, I doubt it would've generated the interest it did..
shareThe movie theatre business needed the revenue - the hype machine was working at full power.
We should take bets on what will be pushed in December.
2 reasons: 1st, it was made by Nolan and all the Nolan Bros were going to be in full force for this no matter what.. The man could make a 3 hour movie on paint drying and they'd be stupid enough to show up for it and 2nd, Barbie appealed to a wide range of moviegoers, in particular, the gay community along with young males in their 20's because it simply checked all the boxes for DEI: Diversity, Equity and Inclusiveness and any movie going forward that doesn't have these ingredients will be enough for Gen Z to not even give the movie the time or day, plus it has to have a hook and be meme friendly
shareA lot broader demo than "gays and 20-something males" are going. I haven't seen Barbie yet but I'm guessing it's pretty funny (psst, it's a Comedy!)--people aren't paying full price to sit in a movie theater to have their socio-political viewpoint confirmed--that's Republican behavior (also projecting, as you did here).
shareDude, When I went and saw the MEG 2, I stopped in the restroom before the movie and there were 4 young males at the urinals sporting hot pink pants, a white shirt and white shoes for this movie, so just stop.. This movie appealed heavily, HEAVILY to the Gay & Transgender crowd and it's true.. This has to go down as one of the softest generations I've ever witnessed
shareYou make no sense. Dry out!
shareI make plenty sense, so fuck off.. You just can't handle the fact that everything I said was true, so again, fuck off soy boy
shareGay and transgender comprise 2% of the population (UCLA Williams Institute). But something tells me you see them everywhere cuz your are a very ill-educated hick. Since you told me to f off I will now block you.
shareIt is the kind of film I really like but I am surprised that it is doing as well as it is with modern audiences.
shareBecause they showed it as a double feature with Barbie lol
shareI’m surprised how well it did at the box office but I hope it leads to more serious films like this being released.
