I mean they have. Plus from what I've seen in the Tracking Thread, sales seem decent enough for it. It's also aiming towards a different enough audience from the movies out this weekend that I think it will be alright counterprogramming.

I've been getting that stupid State Farm tie-in commercial before every movie. And also the trailer a few times. Even outside of that, I feel like promotion is doing fine for me, at least within my Disney fandom circles.

Strays: 18-28M GUYS WE HAVE TO SUPPORT BLUE BEETLE WE CAN'T LET THAT TRASH WIN

This guy played SpongeBob on Broadway btw. I guess Ariana can't leave her Nickelodeon background forever.

Re: repeat viewings, 2 is my max and I'm likely gonna keep that way. Even seeing a movie more than 5 times in theaters sounds egregious, espeically when there's always something new out every week. If you're watching something in theaters in the double digits, go read a book, kiss a girl, do...literally anything. It's just absurd.

It's genuinely depressing how 30-40 years ago, movies that sparked controversy were stuff that actually had controversial things to say. JFK, Last Temptation of Christ, Kids. Movies that were actually for adults and actually went into provocative, challenging stuff. How infantile must our culture be if movies made for 8 year olds cause culture wars and political divisions? In 1993, a Barbie movie with the message of "women can be whatever they want to be" would cause like zero political drama. What the hell are we doing here?

I still remember getting the trailer for this before Love and Thunder. At this point, I'll probably get the trailer before the next Thor movie.

Both. Men are the best and I want them to treat me like a king at all times. Especially those two cuties

Moderation It’s not the Dune thread either. Please stay on topic or I will give out threadbans.

Moderation Sound of Freedom’s politics is only allowed to be talked about in the Sound of Freedom thread. We have told you all this many times. Please take the conversation elsewhere.

Moderation Not the Marvels thread.

Wow. So funny and not at all cringey and annoying. No siree

...nah.

OMG I had no idea you came back. Surreal to see you again all these years later, but I hope you stick around.

Gotta be honest, I expected an extra 10 rewatches from you. I'm very disappointed.
