Hatebox Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 (edited) So what’s the DOM/INTL split on this going to be? Not being snarky, just a shocked at how big it’s apparently playing in the former. Edited December 20, 2023 by Hatebox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedorito Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 The way this industry treats Black people, especially Black women, is so terrible. Groomers, cult members, and abusers can go so much farther with less talent and less success if they’re male and white. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like after Empire, she should have been in everything, but her team was like "no" because????????????????????? 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember people were also going after Margot Robbie because she dared to make money from Barbie. People just assumed she kept all that.

Grand Cine Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 I'm so sad for Taraji because she is in industry since 20 years and Hidden Figures is one of the best movies than I have seen in my life for me . I hope one day women will pay equally to men , and for everybody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wandavisionlover0924 Posted December 20, 2023 Share Posted December 20, 2023 I was coming to seeing if y'all were talking about her interview. It's so disheartening especially since iirc Taraji has said she hates that she has to audition for roles including this one especially since she's an academy award winning actress and has been working in Hollywood for 3 decades 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully her new representation got her some points on TCP profit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember people were also going after Margot Robbie because she dared to make money from Barbie. People just assumed she kept all that. Her issue isn’t Uncle Sam or splitting costs with her team, she’s done many interviews about this, her main issue is that black actresses don’t make the same amount as their white counterparts and despite being an Emmy and Oscar nominee she still has to audition, for example she had to audition and fight for this role in The Color Purple. Most of her white counterparts get offered roles, they dont have to stay on the audition circuit. She also said she had to fight for Danielle and Fantasia’s team to ask for a fair amount from the studio. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted December 21, 2023 Share Posted December 21, 2023 (edited) Thank goodness this looks like it will be a huge commercial success, though who knows what that will change sadly.

titanic2187 Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Open to 100% audience score now on RT. A strong candidate for A+ cinemascore. Can we replace Maestro with TCP for final best picture lineup? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MovieMan89 Posted December 25, 2023 Share Posted December 25, 2023 Yeah reviews for this ended up very good to most comparable award baiting musicals or even comparable subject matter, such as The Help. Definitely seems like BP nom now when you add in huge success. No idea what the Globes were on, missing their easy to get into musical/comedy cat is seeming pretty absurd at this point 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what the Globes were on, missing their easy to get into musical/comedy cat is seeming pretty absurd at this point They added a bunch of new international voters as part of the Globes being reformed, I guess they canceled out all the old HFPA members who were easy marks for even the most mid musicals, let alone good ones. It's not just the Globes, many precursors have been lukewarm on TCP so far. Maybe the box office will give voters warmer feelings about it. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
