@xenocryptsite “Sandwiched between two Avengers movies” vs “co-starring two TV characters” explains like like 40% of it, the rest is probably Marvel Malaise and Larson Derangement Syndrome

Or...honestly I have no idea. "The Marvels" could have been better but IMO deserved better than "one of the biggest bombs in history".

The reason this is rare is, if your movie did well enough for a sequel to be greenlit, then there should be at least enough interest for its opening weekend to be good. So you really need a particular confluence of factors for "sequel gross" < "first movie opening weekend".

M3GAN 2.0 almost certainly joining the rarified if unprestigious group of sequels (especially sequels to original films) that make less money in total than their predecessor did in its first weekend ($30M).

@bitcloud This isn’t a new phenomenon either. Captain Underpants started in 1997, I think kids just like the minor taboo violation

Why do all the kids books these days have titles like "The day my bum fell off" or "My big fart dinner" or "Captain Fart Bum's day at the Fart Store"?

Really looks like some Dem party leaders are toying with sabotaging Mamdani's campaign even though his the nominee fair & square. If they do this, they will absolute alienate all the voters they are already bleeding, especially young voters (including young Black voters), & Asian voters. They will doom their future prospects as a party and deserve all the losses they will reap.

i think the only thing that could make democrats seem more out of touch right now is saying that they're not sure they can support the dude who just won a primary on a message of making nyc affordable for the working class.

Interesting random historical fact: Both Kash Patel and Zohran’s fathers were expelled from Uganda by Idi Amin in anti-Indian ethnic cleansing

the one lesson the DNC will actually take away from this is that they need to nominate the child of a celebrated director. congratulations to our next president, Romy Mars.

@CNLiberalism @_giacomo_volpe_ You would absolutely not accept this opinion from someone who wanted to vote for Jill Stein. You either have to endorse earlier to try and drive change or pick from the leading candidates later

@gmiller Does “The Fourth of July” sound inspiring without generations of context? I’d be happy calling it Liberation Day, but it’s worth remembering that gravitas builds over time

@GianmarcoSoresi You're a left-leaning comedian with a social-media-formed fanbase performing in English. That's like the best way to find Spaniards who know about Luigi
