    The movie business is much simpler business model than corporate America. Make a movie, promote it, hopefully pay off your investors and make money. If you make duds that lose money, eventually, you won't have any investors to help you pay for movies. It's all about getting the money. No movie gets made without the money. The person green lighting the money has to answer to someone.
    Our perceptions may not line up with reality, which is why you have to do your research. You said hardly any women play video games?? That is just untrue. Half of all women have played video games but that number is increasing much faster than with men. The percent of hardcore female gamers are increasing every year. They are in a sweet spot demographics of 15 to 30 year olds. The type of games you may not relate to but they are playing games and spending money doing so.
    Only a complete and total fool thinks that Fortune 500 companies do not try to push their own ideologies. What about The Ultra Liberal AOL? What about all the companies that bend over backwards to hire unqualified minorities over qualified whites? Are you going to deny that happens? Maybe it is time that you met your local ICE Agent.

    I'm tired of all the remake/series movies like the Avengers series but I end up watching them anyway. Endgame was very good. But Dark Phoenix was boring as shit. Easily the worst in the series. You used to be sure that most movies you saw were going to be good. Now, it's a crap shoot whether or not the movie will be watchable.
    Dark Phoenix don’t even make any damn sense, didn’t Wolverine kill her in one of them??? No chance in hell I watch that! I don’t even think she wants to.

    They even managed to make super troopers fukkin awful, super troopers 2 was a steaming pile of crap!

    I do reccomend “the professor” it was really good.

    She tried to talk me into spider man 49 or whatever the hell number it is but I’ve been fed up w spider man since before this new one they have who has been spider man in the last few. Don’t think I’ve enjoyed a spider man since Toby maquire!

    Stop, please stop before you keep posting and showing your ass. You mention Fortune 500 and AOL? AOL was bought by Verizon in 2015. AOL is NOT A FORTUNE 500 COMPANY, you dumb ass old fart.

    What company is bending over backwards to hire "UNQUALIFIED" minorities? Please, name us one company that is as stupid as you are?

    They even sell advertising in movie, like when actor/actress drinks a coke or uses a certain brand of whatever. They push products I’d say they most certainly push agendas/ideals.

    Spider Man FFH is actually pretty good. It follows up Endgame.

    I heard the Professor was good. I think I have to be in the mood to see that one as it seems to be a bit depressing/tear jerker type.

    Not one or the other pal. Used to maybe lean a little that way but not anymore. They have gotten too extreme and pretty much went crazy after trump won. Pretty much have always leaned right when it comes to taxes and such, used to lean left on lot of social issues but they have turned me completely off. I don’t really like either side particularly the extremist on both. I’m more a grey area kind of guy.

    listen to me carefully

    noone will open their eyes though

    trump isnt far right

    the democrat-republican thing IS NOT LINEAR

    its an oval

    trump circles back to the middle

    if you dont believe me, go watch any old interview

    he says the same things years ago and democrats cheered (even oprah, jesse jackson, etc)

    but because media wants to portray things, hes way far right

    NO

    he passed far right and is back towards the middle on the OVAL spectrum

    PERIOD

    hes done more for minorities than barrack thats for goddamn sure

    google, facebook, twitter, netflix, foxnews, cnn, etc. proctor and gamble just donated to the us womens soccer team "to be on the right side of history" for equal pay.

    i said hardly any women seriously play games meaning they mostly casually play them and its not a major hobby where they spend a lot of money on games and computers. women are mostly playing games like candy crush on their phone that are free and only doing it when they have nothing better to do. the games being changed for feminists are the competitive and violent games. no one can argue that men make up the vast majority of competitive and/or violent video game customers.

    you cant say women are half the games because they have played a video game a few times in their life. you have to judge by time played in their lives. if a woman has played 10 hours in her life that is not equal to someone who has played 10,000 hours.

    Not only that, but Trump has been a Democrat his whole life. It would be interesting to see if anything would have been different if Trump ran and won as a Democrat.

    A guy that made no apologies for being a man. He was the complete anti feminist. If I have to explain it to you,it isnt going to compute with you is it. Dont give me this she isnt Bond shit, the film makers created this character knowing it would cause a stir.

    james bond is a male power fantasy. a female power fantasy would be having a bunch of handsome rich vampires fighting over who gets to cater to your every whim.

    I would disagree with this.

    Thou Bond goes thru many women, he is, in fact, always attracted to strong, intelligent and independent women. Even in the books dating to the 50s and 60s. I'd say Ian Fleming has done more to craft the image of the modern independent female than any other public figure and for a much longer time....

    The use of gratuitous sex goes both ways.
