‘The Color Purple’ Lost Warner Bros $40 Million

There’s an audience for this, but this was never going to do well on this big screen and was destined to fail with a 100 million budget

Everyone that's celebrating this movie for doing bad numbers are also going to conveniently claim to have seen it

Remake wasn’t needed or wanted.

Who cares?
Imagine championing slave/black man is bad movies just because they’re about black people

I'm sorry but if I'm watching a show or movie and the cast breaks out into a singing number, I'm done. If I wanted to listen to a song, I'd have opened Apple Music.
I don't give a fukk about how well you can sing. Tell me a story through lines not lyrics.

If this was successful it wouldn’t be a win for all black movies anyways. It would just lead them into continuing to put money into these black trauma films that beat the trauma that happened to us in the past into our heads over and over again…
You’re essentially saying celebrate scraps given to us as long as they’re black scraps

This was all Oprah doing. She is hard pressed to make her movie studio a powerhouse and she thought this would be the one.
The problem with Oprah is she has no one to tell her fine ass "NO".
Oprah should've done the 6888th movie and made a billion, nope. She had to do a remake that wasn't fukking needed. This is why you need real artists in movie sets or else you get shyt like this and Wakanda Forever.

Thanks to the lawyers uh, I marbled the foyer
nikka if the only choice is shyt, you're still being poisoned
But but but the bigger picture, it’s bad for black movies, they’re going to stop funding black movies. So now black people are obligated to support movies they don’t want to see. Out of fear that future black projects will stop being funded lol. Nobody told Oprah to make a 100 million dollar budget. Color Purple remake that’s also a musical in 2023. I’m sure black people are going to support the next Jordan Peele, Ryan Coolger, and black superhero movie.

Oprah is hardheaded man...she won't listen to anybody.
Oprah could've made an Augusta Savage movie and ate good off of it or a Jean-Michel Basquiat film.
nikkaz is clowns.
back to more drug dealer hood straight to Tubi epics!!!
Way more of those movies than "slave", or civil rights era movies.
All bullshyt aside, that movie should not have cost 90 million. Tyler coulda shot that shyt for half. Dunno what they were thinking.
But it's okay for cac movies to bomb and left and right, they won't stop making em.
Black oriented jawns? That's it for major motion pictures right?
It'll be a tax write off for WB.
