Are you straight? Then it’s your fault that Bros was a spectacular box office failure

Billy Eichner thinks straight people are to blame for his gay rom-com flopping at the box office over its opening weekend.
The comedian, who co-wrote, executive-produced and stars in “Bros,” penned a lengthy Twitter thread on Sunday in response to the film making only $4.8 million in the US and Canada, approximately 40 percent less than expected.
“Even with glowing reviews, great Rotten Tomatoes scores, an A CinemaScore etc, straight people, especially in certain parts of the country, just didn’t show up for Bros. And that’s disappointing but it is what it is,” Eichner, 44, wrote, adding, “That’s just the world we live in, unfortunately.”
Urging moviegoers to see “Bros,” which has been marketed as the first film featuring an entirely LGBTQIA+ cast to get a wide release, the “Billy on the Street” star quipped, “Everyone who ISN’T a homophobic weirdo should go see BROS tonight!

I’m also a small part of the reason the following films weren’t as big as they could have been:
Chocolat
The Piano
The Notebook
Shakespeare in Love
Ishtar
My Dinner with Andre
Chariots of Fire
The English Patient
Beaches
Yentl
But the people involved in those films aren’t angry with me.

How stupid. I'm straight and not homophobic. But I'm also not the least bit interested in that movie. But, yeah, I'm sure it's all homophobia.
People love to be victims.

This should tell you all you need to know about the current state of movie reviews. If you hit the ESG buttons, you get an automatic glowing review.
I'll pass on Bros. Judd Apatow can lick my hairy arse.

Y’all do realize this is a coordinated attempt by billy and the studio to drum up press for the movie. Stop posting this crap

This is what happens, when the media and the left try to portray America as 50% gay and 25% tranny, and then reality hits them.
No one wants to watch that shite.

Must be that people are homophobes. Couldn't be that the movie just sucks arse.
Seem to remember movies like Brokeback Mountain doing pretty well at the box office.

It seems like they’ve grouped every possible variant of totalitarian progressive in one group. And they’ve completely hijacked the gay rights political infrastructure.

Can go straight to hell. Actually, he probably will. Go frick yourself, Billy Eichner. Contrary to what the media will have you believe, the vast majority of this country does NOT want to watch a movie where men make out with each other.

They're actually trying to shame people into not only consuming their product but forcing them into saying that they like it.

Chariots of Fire doesn't belong on that list. It was actually a pretty good flick.

Why is the idea that go woke, go broke so hard for folks like that to understand?
Very few people are gonna support a movie like that
