All I heard about it was Andrew Garfield promoting it, saying it’s important for people to see and will hopefully inspire people who are feeling hopelessness in today’s world.
If it’s truly a film about a population “rising up” against their oligarch oppressors, I’m not shocked it was poorly advertised. The quicker it flops at the box office, the quicker Hollywood can bury it. Don’t want to give a struggling population dealing with similar circumstances any ideas…
I don’t think it’s this sinister. I just think most folks who watch a film like this also see the paradox of how Hollywood films like this are essentially sugar pills. They may make people feel good in the moment, but they aren’t going to cause anyone to grab a pitchfork and head downtown either.
Something with this much of a budget a theatrical release totally has Hollywood money behind it. Its not like a purposefully orchestrated tax write off flop either, those are bigger budgets (Madam Webb = tax write off plus tactic to keep Spidey IP)
Someone may want to bury the film with lack of advertising though. Or, yeah, its just a bad movie they dont want to throw money at propping it. I’ll try to see it in the next few weeks to decide myself.
…“Hollywood” is just a bunch of investors who want their percentage back and dont give a fuck about what message the film has.
Did people who did see it like it?
Yea none of this means its actually bad movie. Might be worth looking into, who cares if it was poorly marketed as a robin hood film.
