Sigh. They’re at it again, aren’t they? This movie was aggressively marketed towards women.

As a guy I got the vibe that I wasn’t welcome and that this movie is more for women and girls, as they’re the TARGET DEMOGRAPHIC.

So I’m not going to go watch it. It’s that simple. That isn’t sexism, that’s preference.

When have I heard this before?

They've actually changed the name to try to mitigate the second problem but I have a feeling it's too late to save this roasted bird

It just doesn't look interesting to me. I didn't watch Suicide Squad either, and that doesn't have an all female cast. The only prejudice I have against the movie at all is Rosie Perez. I truly can't stand her voice. But none of that has to do with sexism.

Birds of prey. They are Klingons?

How many movies have to bomb and how many millions have to be wasted until Hollywood stops doing this woke, feminist movies?

I swear I wish I had so much money that I wouldn't care about losing millions of dollars producing shit like this.

Lmao. I heard this was so bad that even the preorders had several theaters with empty showings on opening night. That’s the worst I have ever heard a movie do. Since not even feminists are buying these tickets, I think they might need to do some soul searching.

Why is it a feminist movie?

2020-02-11T17:03:45+00:00

I knew the movie was gonna bomb the second I saw the castings a year ago. I had arguments about it and predicted that the movie is going to bomb. Good to see I was right :)

I would have been interested in it if they had cast a bunch of hot chicks in their early twenties and had cranked up the sexiness.

Instead they went the totally opposite direction with it. I remember reading an article somewhere about the casting being "a blow to so-called sexist ageist Hollywood "

Yes, Margot Robbie is awesome and she can play the bombshell. Just look at Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. But I got the picture they weren't going in that direction from the trailer.

Ghostbusters 2016 noises

TheA55M4N · 2020-02-11T22:14:59+00:00

It’s actually really good. It’s nothing like Wokebusters or those other female woke movies

Life_Is_Cruel2 · 2020-02-11T22:25:46+00:00

At this point Hollywood seems utterly desperate to churn out these feminist pieces of garbage that often crash and burn, or underperform, at the box office. Ghostbusters, Charlie’s Angels, and now this mess. I don’t think anyone remembers Ocean’s 8 today as well, or Ant-Man and the Wasp. You also hardly see a woman getting defeated in any films in general.

Hollywood seriously needs to a get a grip. Women aren’t infallible, and your movies that try to appeal to them are failing, so change your strategy.

ataaulrasul · 2020-02-12T01:27:12+00:00

I'm a guy and i wanna watch it but I'm waiting for it to come out in HD on illegal sites where i watch it for free

CobaltSurvivor · 2020-02-15T01:56:39+00:00

False: birds aren’t real

LandryP · 2020-02-11T15:20:42+00:00

I saw it, it's good and not feminist. It's just about women.

Pewdiepieisasexy12 · 2020-02-15T06:01:14+00:00

Margot Robbie was little literally the only good aspect of that movie. And I didn’t even see the movie. That doesn’t change the fact it still will most likely suck, though.

BlatantNapping · 2020-02-11T14:26:34+00:00

Right-wing website makes right-wing commentary on movie, uses two tweets as evidence of what non-right-wing people think. Right-wingers circlejerk.

^^As expected.

plsdontcyberbullyme · 2020-02-11T20:06:32+00:00

What I don't get is why its apparently bad for any media to try and be about women's issues without you guys complaining about it being feminist propaganda.
