Whenever I see that these movies are successful I'm always wondering who's seeing them? Myself and a few friends all attend movies regularly and none of us even know anyone who saw the second one in theaters. Like I'm sure people are going, it's just weird.
There are 6 billion people in the world.
Ok.. you do get how relatively tiny your circle of friends is. Everyone you times 1000 is fractional amount compared just to the population of your country.
The movie made 340 million because the franchise is beloved. I know that shocks the Reddit/Lemmy hive mind that is convinced the movies have no cultural significance.
I went to go see it. Wicked and this are the only movies I saw in the theater. It was great fun.
These movies have no cultural relevance. Not in the US at least
Yeah, how could a movie about native Americans and their struggle against the colonizers be relevant in the US.
