You serious Clark? Race swap of lead character, downplaying the role of the white male hero, lead actress calling male hero a stalker and creepy, dwarves removed from original because angry dwarf calls it backwards only to use DEI group and then to switch back to cgi dwarves. Is it less backwards when it is cgi?

Some estimates were saying that after advertising, distribution fees, the budget, etc that it has to make around $800 million to break even


Not saying you’re wrong but that seems kinda crazy. Hard to believe, really.

She was named after the snowstorm she was born in

That's the reach they went with in the movie

But nobody watched it, so it won't be canon or anything

From deadline

quote:

Disney‘s Rachel Zegler– and Gal Gadot-starring Snow White is headed to an estimated loss of $115 million after all global home entertainment, TV and Disney+ ancillaries, according to distribution sources Monday. The loss, which was expected, is based on a final worldwide box office of $225M.

Broken down, the global cume is based on a possible $100M take at the domestic box office, which is under the $115M gross of 2019’s Dumbo (another live-action remake of a classic Disney animated feature), and a $125M overseas total. Snow White, which hit theaters March 21, ended its second U.S. weekend Sunday with $14.2M — off 66%, steeper than Dumbo and the Maleficent movies — and $36.3M global, for a running worldwide cume of $143.1M.

You said they changed her race, not her skin tone.

I feel bad for the crew that worked on the movie, aside from the cast.

I bet this won't make it into their resume'

Colombia is a majority Euro descent. Her mom appears to be of European descent and her dad is Polish.

I don't care that they didn't go with a fully white person. Just make a good movie. A lot of people didn't like Will Smith being cast as the genie, but that film turned out to be well received by audiences and made over a billion.

Complaining about race swapping the lead is all he could come up with since he hasnt seen the movie haha.

Its a pretty big reach to say tan looking people arent white. Were the Romans also not white? Their skin wasnt pale as snow either

I still don't

Nothing to do with Smith's color, but what he did with the role. He was trying to be cool. Just rubbed me wrong.

Wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but it was still bad.

Maybe I am in the minority

You haven't either, unless I've missed something, but I figure you'd start your own thread if you did actually see that garbage

You are as prone to defending anything you feel you're supposed to as anyone else is at rejecting shite-tier garbage and it's pretty clear which way the meter's working

yeah and I haven't said the movie is good or bad either.

saying they didn't race swap the lead isn't defending the movie. it is pointing out an objectively false claim.

Then stop defending it! Literally no one is watching it and you defending it is just as bad as anyone criticizing it that hasn't seen it. It just sucks and everyone knew it before it came out. If you wanted to talk Zegler v. Galdot, whatever, that's fine. But you haven't done that. You've just been a count about everything for months
