I'm sure it will make many tens of dollars.

It'll make back its budget on reviews and retweets alone! Tweets are worth money, aren't they?

You say that like you don't mean it, but really, there are still a lot of people who treat "Rotten Tomatoes" "critics" score as a reliable indicator as to whether they should see something.

True, but good reviews for woke films haven't exactly helped much as of late. I'm not even sure this film go too woke. The harpy is acting, not writing, and Spielberg might restrain Kennedy's efforts to sabotage this film. It wouldn't surprise me if Disney isn't planning on exerting some control. Even so, don't care. I'd prefer a terrible film for the comedy it'd bring.

I hope they have a black person in a prominent role. I enjoy watching Lucasfilm play hide the darkie in their Chinese promotional materials.

She's not that woke.
