‘The Color Purple’ Lost Warner Bros $40 Million

[Rekkapryde]

Because KOTFM was a limited release specifically for Oscar season. It's main purpose as an Apple+ flick was to get people to pay for the service.

True, but still flopped.

Where's the smoke.

Of course there's none cause its Leo/Scorcese

 

[Rekkapryde]

Funny thing is this movie actually did more justice regarding Mister's character than the original '85 movie.

That's the one thing I really liked about this joint.

And of course them trying to hide Fantasia's thick ass and titties in them clothes

 

[NZA]

the doom and gloom aspect is unwarranted. one love and american fiction are winning either financially or critically at this moment. there is no reason to expect we will see fewer black movies because of the TCP remake.

 

[Bryan Danielson]

Damn….. I don’t even have no jokes.

@Peter Popoff

We gotta be there for our Alliance Opp breh @daemonova

Him and WB stay down bad

 

[Gizmo_Duck]

Bad for black movies .. y’all celebrating

We tired of watching movies about black struggle. Bring back black comedy (without Kevin hart)

 

[daemonova]

Warner Brothers is doing horrible in the movie and video games department

Kill the justice league just had a huge budget, the game sold budget just hard to recoup, they'll out some more mortal Kombat and Harry potter shovelware and be alright

The joke writes itself. A movie that promotes slandering black men and creating stereotypical tropes flops.

That's a lie dude. The 2 majority Black cast movies out right now are Bob Marley: One Love and American Fiction. Did you support those non slave movies?

you know the answer

 

[Dr. Acula]

It was a good film. Saw it with family and everyone loved it. Unfortunate it did poorly.

Love Fanny but she had to take the L with this one.

There are mountains of other films bombing, this ain't the only one

 

[Jaguar93]

When Oprah remakes Beloved into a musical with a 100 million dollar budget. Maybe that will save black cinema.

 

[Blackrogue]

I think the studio being cheap with their actresses on a movie about black woman struggles made people not want to give that movie any money. I've intentionally tried not to watch it myself.

 

[Son Goku]

and both flopped too.

but we keep hearing about this joint for some "odd" reason

Killers had a slew of award nods and actually won hardware; Nap actually made its budget at the box office back and had award nods.


This movie ain't make shyt back and won one award. shyt is not really the same.
