Deserves to be seen and should have its success, but there’s some other things behind it that have pushed the numbers up.


That's going to hold true for every blockbuster film moving forward. Ticket prices are only going to increase. Titanic solid roughly 400 million tickets worldwide during its initial theatrical release in 1997-98. 128 million of those were in the United States.

That film is now 10th all-time on the domestic charts despite having more ticket sales than all nine films ahead of it by a comfortable margin.

Pretty this just proves people like you are outliers, most people didn't give a shite about black Helen or Elliot playing a soldier.


Nope. It doesn't prove that at all.

I really do hope Hollywood believes this movie proves people love race swapping, gay crap, and trans people in everything. That would be awesome.

This. The movie itself was pretty underwhelming


I liked it, but not as good as I thought it’d be. I feel the same way about the drama with this movie that I do with the LSU/SEC drama. I just want it to end and to stop hearing about it.

I feel the same way, but it does now have me listening to the actual text for the first time in over 20 years because I couldn’t get over some of the changes made to the story in the film.
