I follow no man. Or woman. Your fauxtears make me stronger.

@CowlDon @andysignore Wait, is Google trying to buy or merge with anything?

I wonder how true this is.

Or if they’re just doing it to avoid Herr Trumpito’s tiny-handed wrath.

@StoneShroob @GaryAmbrosia @screentime It’s almost as ridiculous as the hubris of these imbeciles these days. Gunn commented on the mythical “marketing budget formula” and the hollywood “insiders” proceeded to call him a liar - from their mother’s basement, lined with action figures and funko pops. 🙄🤡

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@StoneShroob @GaryAmbrosia @screentime They don’t talk about it because it doesn’t fit their narrative. The sad thing is they got people actually believing their bullshit.

@LinkedIn_Chad @BeauDemayo @MarvelStudios @rickygervais 😂

Grown ass man claiming there’s an “elite circle” because *he* didn’t like a kid’s Star Wars flick.

Man, this nation is filled with a LOT of soft individuals.

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@grok @ReviewFischer @RiderTrist19842 Also, I should mention that while I like Supergirl, she isn’t necessarily a “favorite” character. (not that I HATE her either). I think the reason I like that Supergirl run is because of David. His writing is *chef’s kiss*.

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@grok @ReviewFischer @RiderTrist19842 I didn’t have enough characters to mention that one of the things I appreciate about Campbell’s book *IS* her art. Good observation, @grok.

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@grok @ReviewFischer @RiderTrist19842 Maybe you could help Aaron realize this. Unless he’s just being disingenuous for “clout”.

Apologies for being rude and I appreciate your efforts to avoid negativity, so to answer your question: i’m a fan of Peter David’s run. I’m also digging Sophie Campbell’s current run.

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@grok @ReviewFischer @RiderTrist19842 Diverse tastes are absolutely FINE, but when you make it your whole identity to come on social media complaining and calling the talent involved names, that goes beyond the pale, does it not?

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@grok @ReviewFischer @RiderTrist19842 Or should I nut up and stop trying to gatekeep and incessantly spread fake news/facts comparing new content to a universe DC is clearly moving on from and find something else I like or appreciate the things I already have?

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@grok @ReviewFischer @RiderTrist19842 See @grok, what fragile ‘lil Aaron doesn’t seem 2 realize is that things can’t always B the way he wants. U pointed out the inspo 4 the upcoming Supergirl flick, while Aaron declared he wanted the Supes/Bats arc. I, personally, disliked both. Should I whine incessantly about it?

@WilliamShatner

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@grok @etiennegoyer @KishanNavadiya4 And why are “global efforts” exempt?

Also, do you take in global ancillary revenue into any of your estimates?

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@grok @etiennegoyer @KishanNavadiya4 And do you think it’s entirely fair to hold current films to a 2001 report on the “blockbuster era” post-1975, considering the advances in technology and social media that didn’t exist back then?

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@grok @etiennegoyer @KishanNavadiya4 So… it’s a figure they came up with based on this mythical “marketing is HALF of the movie’s production budget” narrative. Could you find the very first instance of this narrative, where someone first reported that the marketing is equal to 1/2 of the production?

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@grok @etiennegoyer @KishanNavadiya4 And since you have access to it, exactly what/whom did Variety cite as its source for that “marketing estimate”?

Also, does your tone change depending on the vibe from the threads of the tweets you’re responding to?

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@grok @etiennegoyer @KishanNavadiya4 I’ll play… Hey @Grok, 2 questions:

1) Where’d you get your “marketing” figure from?

2) What are the accurate figures for “ancillary” revenues?

You know what? I’ll answer that for you - you don’t have any.

So, w/out ALL data, can you DEFINITIVELY declare it “not” a success?

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@Moony29866405 @AkkiZac019 A lot of them aren’t..

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@YEAHYEAHYAA @AkkiZac019 Yeah, the ones that didn’t are either SnyderBros sucking off their leader or grifters working hard to maintain their grift to stay off the pole or OnlyFans..

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@87StarsBen @chilling_moot And some of those days were during a holiday.. when more people had/took time off to do things..

…like watch a ridiculous sequel to a franchise that should’ve stopped after part one.

[ǝbɐɹxnɐɟ @Fauxrage7]

@MickeySteamboat @RMBee ��

I’d love to know where all these Hollywood “insiders” get their financial figures from and who started the whole “marketing is almost as much as the flick’s budget” narrative that spread like wildfire back during the pandemic when YouTube was FILLED with Hollywood INSIDERS.
