'Captain Marvel' Can Debunk The Idea That Trolls And Toxic Fans Hurt The Box Office

in advance of its Fri-Sun opening frame. That's the fifth-best performance for any superhero title in China , behind only . For the record, Civil War ended up making around 3% of their opening weekend totals via midnight previews, while earned 2.3% of its $107m debut at midnight.Captain Marvel heading into the weekend but a lower midnight gross than merely shows that you can't use pre-sales as a specific barometer for opening weekend success.

Namely, that we could take a handful of mean tweets from anonymous people and frame it into a trend story, either about the initial offense or about how celebrities or fans were responding or fighting back.

of what should have been a giant"Oh, neat, that sounds like fun" issue of a theater holding women-only screenings for a female-led superhero movie. Oh, and Okay, but what about Ghostbusters reboot became a canary in the coal mine for Gamergate politics playing a role in more mainstream discourse, one which had adult men losing their minds online over the notion of a movie featuring ladies. And the end result was that the merely okay comedy earned a just okay $126 million domestic. It cost way too much , didn't play in China due to their prohibition of supernatural content and was mostly ignored overseas for a mere $229m worldwide cume.

Black Panther already debunked that idea. Were y'all asleep last year during all the anti-Black nonsense that went on before it hit theaters?

'Everyone who thinks a movie sucks even when though the movie sucks is a troll'

Maybe it's just a bad movie? Wonder Woman did incredibly well and starred a woman.
