Just saying 20x multi and TGS together defeats the human spirit.

As far as your TGS is like making a feel good movie about the holocaust analogy goes, it falls apart if you’d realize ANIMALS ARENT INVOLVED IN THE FILM. So if anything, it’s like making a feel good movie set during the holocaust that doesn’t involve the Jews, let alone any romantisizing of what they went through. 

 

The Barnum character in the film is as fictional as it gets, to the point they don’t even bother with any “inspired by” nonsense at the beginning. If anything, the movie is bringing MORE awareness to who Barnum was in real life since everyone can tell the characters and plot  in the film is fictional and are then becoming curious to know more about the real man. I’ve seen like a bazillion articles online and on social media in the last couple weeks talking about what the real Barnum was like thanks to the success of the film. It’s success is an all around win. The movie is succeeding as a feel good work of FICTION, and also bringing way more awareness of who the non-fictional person whose name they borrowed really was.

Saw TGS, I can definitely understand the holds; it's cheery, and easy on the eyes and ears, and the performances are great. Wouldn't give it more than a 6.5/10 though

That's the whole point.  It doesn't involve animals, so it's lies and conjecture.  It's romantacizing  man who was an evil twisted fuck.  I have no desire to see it.  You can love it, wax poetic about it and recommend it to anyone and everyone.  I will be no part of any of this film.

Forecasting The Last Jedi with a 6.8M weekend (honestly who cares about this anymore):

 

Remainder of this week: 2.1M (606.6M Total)

Feb 2: 1.3M (500k weekdays, 612.8M Total)

Final Total: 615M (2.8x)

 

The TC drop next weekend is going to get ugly with two movies opening in 3k theaters, Oscar contenders expanding, and holds that are doing great (or significantly more than TLJ). Theaters are ditching this junk

If both of these happen I will step down from being a mod and legit leave BOT forever. And when I have the money to do so I will catch a plane to Florida and build a statue in WOH's honor.

 

Not even joking. Quote me if it happens.
