re: THR: 'Supergirl’ Star Milly Alcock Just Proved Her Point About Fan Backlash

Don’t really care.

I enjoyed Superman and just about everything James Gunn has done so I’m gonna watch it in the theater.

The more they show of the new supergirl actress, she looks a little downsy or alcohol fetal syndrome ish

Likely somewhat accurate. But my guess is that it was her power and her ability to use her assets that most appealed to men.


*As for Millie's comments, they're nonsensical and come off as just more 'insufferable actress makes stupid remarks and attacks the very fans she SHOULD be courting to come see her movie.' Likely the studio knows the movie is mid at best and feel it necessary to fabricate some drama for clicks and views now rather than just let it hit or miss organically.

Honestly, I doubt she says anything if not for the fact that the movie is having a good rough time of it. Apparently there have been multiple reshoots and very lukewarm reactions during test screenings.

I’m not saying that justifies her statement, but rather it seems like she knows it’s not a good sign of how the movie will do and is doing that “pre-attack” we’ve seen others do for movies like this in the past.

I mean, I’m tempted to just say we should make every movie with a straight white guy as the lead… not because that’s good for movies, but that it seems the only time we can actually say a shitty movie is just “shitty.” Any other time and we’re racist, sexist, homophobic… and it doesn’t matter about the actual quality of the movie.

Test screening audiences?

Ok, but can you provide some proof? Because I've known people that have attended test screenings, and you have to sign a very strict NDA. The studio will go after you if you're out there talking about the movie. So show me someone that attended and is going around talking about it. TIA

Yea the rollout hasn’t helped for sure. Very odd choices

That’s why they’re called sources. And not identified. The next time you hear somebody adding their name to these reports will be the last time that they do a screening.

These types of leaks have always come out. Generally but not always, they hold true. Also, the number of audience screenings tends to sync with how bad a movie is. The greater number of screenings and potential endings suggest the studio is trying to alter the story to better improve its chances in the theaters.
