Forums - Movies & TV - Roseanne got cancelled

numberwang said:

Within one week Disney cancels their Star Wars profits, Battlefield 5 Trailer gets mass downvoted, and now this profitable show is gone. It starts getting to the bottom line.

What has Battlefield V got to do with Disney?



Around the Network

Folks mad at Roseanne losing her job over this are the same ones who get pissed at Colin Kaepernick for his protest. The same people who think Roseanne deserved to be canceled are the ones who defend Kap to the end. This is a prime example of humanity being absolutely FOS! Flag f***ers and SJWs are 2 sides of same coin. Hate each other because they are what they see when they look in the mirror. Always playing the victim.

They're not. All 3 are instances of left extremism killing profits. 

-Disney killed their Star Wars profits by calling Lando pansexual a few days before the movie release, the lastest in a chain of left extremist moves by Disney within the Star Wars franchise. 

-EA killed their Battlefield profits by deciding that inclusivity, a core tenet of letfist extremism, was more important than historical accuracy in a franchise that became popular thanks to being more realistic and historically accurate than it's chief rival, Call of Duty

-Disney just cancelled the 3rd highest rated show of the past TV season because some politically correct leftists complained that a joke offended them.

LOL come one bro Solo bombed because it isn't that good and is a unnecessary spin off movie no one really wanted Lando had zero to with it bombing at the box office.  Even if it where a substantially better movie if wouldn't have made a ton more since spin offs always make less money then the main movies.

A. Solo was great, I loved it personally, even though I am anti-SJW and didn't like the Lando pansexual comment (thankfully it doesn't actually show in the movie)

B. The Lando pansexual comment was not the only factor that caused Solo to flop, but it was definitely a factor, as their has been a big pushback by right wing Star Wars fans who aren't happy with how much SJW leftism has affected the Disney Star Wars movies. Ticket presales for Solo were great, ahead of Deadpool 2 and Black Panther, only behind Avengers 3 so far this year. Because of that, a week before release, tracking firms had the Solo opening weekend at $130-170m including Memorial Day. Then the Lando is a pansexual comment was made and the movie opened to just $103m including Memorial Day. It wasn't the only factor that caused the movie to open so far below tracking, but it was a factor for sure. Star Wars youtube videos and user review sections are filled with comments of people saying they're boycotting Star Wars movies until Kathleen Kennedy is fired. 

Yeah, nope the movie bombed way harder overseas especially in China so yeah I hate to burst your bubble but you can't blame it bombing on anti SJW backlash.

You might want to look Rogue one numbers. Sure, they are smaller but it was nobody characters that no one gave a shit about. Solo is literally the most popular character in the most popular movie franchise. They expected similar numbers or better. Hell, their original projection even says so

I wonder when celebrities are going to realize they can't talk shit on social media like the normal users and get away with it. Well good for her.

Yeah, nope again pretty much all spin off movies make  less money then the main movies.  And Solo isn't the most popular Star Wars character that would be either Darth Vader or Luke Skywalker.  Heck, even Yoda is more popular then Han Solo.

I'm talking about domestic, not foreign. The foreign flop is probably due to a combination of franchise fatigue, the average critic reviews, the poor fan reception that the prior movie (The Last Jedi) got, and the fact that Disney released it so close to Deadpool and Avengers 3, and those are all factors in the domestic flop as well. Most foreign countries are more left politically than America is, so they don't really care about the SJW leftism that Kathleen Kennedy keeps trying to force into Star Wars. Here in America though, alot of Star Wars fans do care and aren't happy with Kathleen Kennedy and her SJW influences on Star Wars. Go look at the top comments on videos on Star Wars fan channels like Mike Zeroh, and at the highest rated negative user reviews for Solo, they're filled with Kathleen Kennedy haters. Did you know that Solo domestic ticket presales were actually tracking ahead of Rogue One at one point? It's domestic opening weekend ended up being only slightly above 2/3rd of Rogue One, that is a pretty big, and sudden, drop.

It didn't even bomb that hard domestically.  Its bombing way harder overseas and its theatrical run there will be a lot shorter since most theaters overseas are a lot quicker to pull a movie from theaters if its not performing well.  Domestically a movie has to bomb ultra hard like the Oogieloves to get pulled quickly from theaters.
