Lack of action, ' sneaky feminists ideas ', doom Hollywood's latest attempt to lecture fans and shame them into buying their garbage.
Guess what ? It doesn't work.

I knew this was coming out, and assumed that this would be the message in the movie, but I really didn't know anything about it other than its existence. I didn't want to predict failure with no knowledge or without having heard any ads for it like those horrible Batwoman advertisements. Also, didn't the early 2000's Charlie's Angels do pretty good?
The Numbers right now says that if it can maintain its legs and do well enough internationally, "it won't lose a ton of money". It also says that domestically it will not do well, and the small amount of US ticket sales expected will not help save it from what will likely be a pretty huge disaster.
It needed more Lana Del Ray.
She's an angel.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

You DESPERATELY NEEEEEED women to fail at something so you can justify your sad existence, don't you?
Ok, you can have a couple blah Hollywood blips that weren't ever going to be bombs, but you are still going to be a desperate loser your whole life and no amount of sitting around whining about women is going to change anything for YOU.
How bad IS your E.D., snowflake??

Yes, this is all about ME and MY needs.
Never mind what Elizabeth Banks said herself, or how she and the writers tried to shoehorn ' wonkiness ' into this reboot which literally no one was asking for in the first place.
How pathetically immature and insecure can a woman be if all she does is stalk other posters on a forum for movies and berate them with petty ad hominems simply because she doesn't like what's said. Even though she can't debunk or respond w/ any facts of her own. Never seems to fail... Wishi gets angry and nasty and probably forgets why as she's dishing out inane vulgarities and non sequitur insults.
Sounds like something else is at play here.
I suspect you're projecting faults of your former " lovers " , or maybe your current one, and this is some sort of cathartic release. Don't know, don't care.
More NOT MY view and comments for you to winge at and get angry about as Ms Banks tries to shame men into going to see her crappy movie.
Fathom the hypocrisy of a government that requires every citizen to prove they are insured... but not everyone must prove they are a citizen
I'm just a red pill guy in a room full of blue pill addicts.

And one more, just to keep the trigger train going...

Well, I'm glad you admit it.
Seriously, all you've done this past year is bitch about Batwoman and Star Wars and now this.
GET....A....LIFE.
If men were to make movies about masculinity and not being "sissy boys" NO ONE WOULD CARE. If you don't agree with something ....roll your bloody eyes and MOVE ON.
In fact....HERE. Here's an anthem for threatened snowflakes such as yourself. No one cared when it came out. Women didn't sit around complaining...We have better things to do that fret about your mindless posturing
I'm Still a Guy
Brad Paisley
When you see a deer you see Bambi
And I see antlers up on the wall
When you see a lake you think picnic
And I see a large mouth up under that log
You're probably thinking that you're going to change me
In some ways well maybe you might
Scrub me down, dress me up all but no matter what
Remember I'm still a guy
When you see a priceless French painting
I see drunk, naked girls
You think that riding a wild bull sounds crazy
And I'd like to give it a whirl
Well love makes a man do some things he ain't proud of
And in a weak moment I might
Walk your sissy dog, hold your purse at the mall
But remember, I'm still a guy
I'll pour out my heart
Hold your hand in the car
Write a love song that makes you cry
Then turn right around knock some jerk to the ground
'Cause he copped a feel as you walked by
I can hear you now talking to your friends
Saying "Yeah girls he's come a long way"
From dragging his knuckles and carrying a club
And building a fire in a cave
But when you say a backrub means only a backrub
Then you swat my hand when I try
Well, what can I say at the end of the day
Honey, I'm still a guy
And I'll pour out my heart
Hold your hand in the car
Write a love song that makes you cry
Then turn right around knock some jerk to the ground
'Cause he copped a feel as you walked by
These days there's dudes getting facials
Manicured, waxed and botoxed
With deep spray-on tans and creamy lotiony hands
You can't grip a tackle-box
With all of these men lining up to get neutered
It's hip now to be feminized
I don't highlight my hair
I've still got a pair
Yeah honey, I'm still a guy
All my eyebrows ain't plucked
There's a gun in my truck
Oh thank God, I'm still a guy

To be fair though, Elizabeth Banks IS blaming men for the failure of her movie. I just point that out because once again the hypocrisy is hilarious.
Strong independent woman: Needs men to make her movie a success.
lol
Seriously. They should have cast Ariana, Miley and Lana Del Ray in the roles. Nobody want's to see Kristen Stewart and two unknowns. I've heard people blame the lack of marketing as the reason the movie failed. Their music video has around 120 million views, so I'm pretty sure a fair amount of people know it was made.
Banks should have stuck with Zack and made another porno.
Do Right, Be Right. :)

Living rent free....
Kitten, I rarely even post on FFF.net anymore, no where near what I did in years past. ALL I've done ? I've generally stuck to the cinema and sci-fi boards and if you'd ever be honest w/ yourself ( lord knows you can't be honest w/ anyone else ) , you'd see that your claim is flat out bogus.

No idea what you're even attempting to say. #RealMen have been depicted in movies, see Ford vs Ferrari. But that's no where near the issue.
See, I knew if I posted what others said you'd still dismiss it , out of hand. Because it doesn't fit your hoped for agenda. Anyone who dares to be critical of POS movies which happen to go out of their way to shove a PC / #MeToo agenda into the brain pan of fans MUST be attacked. So sayeth Brie Larson, so sayeth Tim Miller, so sayeth Elizabeth Banks...
Get Woke, Go Broke.
keep taking the losing side, darlin. We both know it's also the wrong side too.
