Can someone explain how Captain Marvel made $450M worldwide in 3 days when most of the theaters are empty? Just what is going on here?
In the US and in China as well it's rated one of the worst superhero movies. With all those empty theater seats, just how in the world did it make over $450M in just 3 days? Can anyone explain this phenomenon?

A movie in Brazil had 4 million tickets bought by the Church that produced it in advance, which roughly means 20 million dollars, a bigger number than Infinity War had in Brazil. There are also known cases of this happening in China. Pretty easy to do it in 3rd world countries and Disney wouldn't even need to buy THAT much because a certain amount of people would in fact go see it.
They're not marxists, you fucking idiot. They're the rich, lazy children of capitalists who are so insulated from reality by generational wealth that they pull stunts like this to occupy themselves.
This, the hordes of feminists this kind of shit will create far outweights any monetary loss

I think a lot of it may have to do with theaters doubling the amount of showtimes as normal. I counted 22 normal 2D showtimes for Friday, and on Monday it will be 11. That means all of the crowds were distributed out by screen. This I guess can only happen when it's been a really slow month and a big movie comes out with zero competition, otherwise they'd never have devoted that much to one film.

The Frankfurt school used the term "Cultural Hegemony" and "the Culture Industries" marxists.org/reference/archive/adorno/1944/culture-industry.htm Lukacs and Gramsci both argued that the reason that the Marxist class theory didn’t play out was because Western values were too deeply entrenched, notably the emphasis on the individual over the collective, and Christianity. These had to be destroyed in order for the communist utopia to be achieved. In 1919, Lukacs was declared the “Minister of Culture” in the short lived Hungarian Soviet Republic. As someone in charge of education, he introduced some of the first sex education classes, designed to undermine the traditional sexual views of the West which he believed was a step closer to accomplishing his goal. Gramsci worked on his “prison notebooks”, which outlined his chief insight which is called “cultural hegemony”. plato.stanford.edu/entries/lukacs/www-personal.umich.edu/~hfox/gramsci.html Cultural hegemony stated the various factors that made Western civilization what it was, and was thus preventing the communist revolution. The key was to continue the “class war” but at the same, undermine these factors from within. These factors were: Christianity Authority Sexual restraint Personal responsibility Heredity Law Truth Family Patriotism and national unity Community Conservatism Language Tradition Gramsci believed that the media and academia had to issue a “counter-hegemony” message, which would help undermine these planks of Western culture. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/9781118430873.est0614
Remember when Black Panther had a 100% fresh rating? Remember that? Remember how legitimate that is?

In 1937, Horkheimer wrote about what is today known as “Critical Theory”. Critical theory is a social theory which is about criticizing the way a culture and “society as a whole” function, in order to change it. Contrast this with other social theories, which are more just about understanding and interpreting why things are as they are. plato.stanford.edu/entries/critical-theory/ Herbert Marcuse uses "critical theory" to push an agenda. He said that niggers, fags, feminists and other sorts of degenerates would lead the charge for change and is called "the father of the new left" Marcuse's search for a form radical subjectivity that could serve as an impetus for revolution or social transformation led him down a path not traveled by his Frankfurt School colleagues. Indeed, one of the criticisms of Marcuse is that he gave in to pessimism and gave up on the working class as revolutionary subject. For Marcuse, we must look to “the substratum of the outcasts and outsiders, etc,” for any social change (MacIntyre 1970: 87). plato.stanford.edu/entries/marcuse/ "Cultural Marxism" was coined by American sociology professor Trent Schroyer in 1973. iep.utm.edu/frankfur/ Who saw all the tools of the Frankfurt school (The Culture Industries, Cultural Hegemony and Critical Theory) and summed it up for what it really was

Eli Thomas
How do people not know this? Companies like Disney and other big production conglomerates buy up millions of dollars in tickets to their own movies to make them seem better in market reports by outside agencies & reporting.
The theaters are empty but the tickets are sold out because Disney is buying them all up to make it seem like a success. This isn't new, it happens with every movie that doesn't do well, but the execs need to push to the top of the "trending" list to make it seem like people care.
Real Talk, I think a lot of it is that theaters are having a showing literally every half hour.
They expected a Infinity War-esqe Billion dollar mega opening, but only got a movie that, while still a success, isn't doing too much better then your average summer blockbuster.

No dude, they file away a few million dollars as a marketing expense, and buy up the tickets. Sure, they technically get a little bit back eventually from sales cut, but they're happy to eat the cost if it helps market the idea that the movie is making money and selling out.

I'm not the one who posted it but you're just a seething commietard with zero argument throwing around the word nigger to try to hide the fact you're a Marxist.
If you missed it, I was using the term incel ironically. The general implication is "People who go to see Alita in the morning = Incel NEETs" and thus "People who go see Captain Marvel = Normal non-incels".
So obviously if so many more people love Marvel and want to see Captain Feminism, they should be able to at least sell out one single showing, yeah? Meanwhile the "incel NEETs" can sell out a fucking morning showing of a movie that came out a month ago?

Already did. Revenues for movies continue to rise over time regardless of quality. That's not normal. There are also all the mergers and behind the scenes power plays. The fact that MONOPOLIES ARE FUCKING ILLEGAL but we haven't bothered to enforce the laws against them ON THE FUCKING BOOKS for decades. Paid shills. There's really no bottom.
Ryan Lewis
Could be why they booked so many fucking theatres and showings for it too. Obviously if they were buying out all the tickets with a reasonable number of screenings people would notice. But when it's showing every 10 minutes you can just pad the numbers a bit on each one and its fine.

The theaters cut will vary according to contracts made for different films. The recent Star Wars films only let the theaters keep a small percentage, and ghe theaters had to agree to show the film in a certain number of the screening theaters, including the largest ones, with a certain numbers of showings etc. Since Marvel is currently one of the main profit generating movie franchises at the moment, Disney/Marvel could have demanded a much higher percentage of ticket fees, leaving the theaters to make most of their profits on concessions, and I’m not sure if the studios get a cut of that.

Yeah, but EVERY movie is empty as well! Sure, every theater is for Captain Marvel is empty, but I SWEAR there were lines for the NEXT screening!

Because I'm not a stupid zoomer. I remember when movie theaters had good movies. It's been a long fucking time. Almost everything after 2000 has been shit. Jurassic Park has better CGI than most marlel movies now.

Hope the people white knighting for Disney are getting paid well. What a soul crushing job it must be.

Downfall has been since 2007 imo. 2007 was a great year for movies.

not sure if we're relevant in the grand scheme of things, but br here. went to see day 1, same with a few buddies who live in other states, and we all had the same experience: the theaters were mostly empty.

>Country under the threat of religious terrorism, Orwellian politics and conservative loons. Wow, it's like going to see a controversial movie might get you killed or something so people don't really show up in big numbers.

You're forgetting the institutional role academia, law, and media played in creating this "cultural revolution for equality and freedom" (discrimination against whites)
Many are marxists. And to their credit they are masters of propaganda.

You gotta be a fucking fool to say it's inconceivable that Disney is colluding with theaters to pull a hoax. 2019 is the year of the hoax and gaslighting the general public. Wake the fuck up.
Kayden Gray
Who just happen to be making fuckloads of money from the labors of others while they own the means of production. You know, I think I've heard a word for that somewhere...
Grayson Green
Saw it out in Portland. Showing I went to initially on Saturday was sold out so I bought tickets for the next showing about an hour later and it sold out too. Luckily I already bought my tickets but there was a line around the block to get in.
Probably one of the weakest Marvel movies but it wasn’t awful. Entertaining enough. 2 1/2 out of 5. But it’s been sold out all weekend out here so I’m not really buying these emtpy theaters. People clapped at the Stan Lee tribute, the end of the movie and at the end of both post credit scenes. I personally didn’t think it was great but the crowd in general were definitely positive.
Gavin Robinson
Exactly. We're being lied to constantly from every angle but hollywood is being transparent and honest.
Wife and I went to see it this morning 10:30 @ a cinema cafe in VA Beach and it was completely full, admittedly the cinema cafes have about half the seating as a normal theater but yeah. It didn't come off anywhere near as feminist and we'd thought. Wife and I were both pleasantly surprised. Seemed to be about 50/50 male/female. A lot of people at work have already seen it and I haven't heard a bad thing about it yet, everyone loves it. My father in law and brother in law did stay home when they usually go to MCU movies with us because of the Brie thing, they skipped WW too though for whatever reason, don't really remember. t. normie
Brandon White

Henry Jackson
Sort of this. But the only reason they have the luxury of doing this is because they're totally insulated by so much fucking cash acquired via capitalism that they can literally get away with anything they want now. And because capitalists are such shills for the rich and won't tax them or put a stop to massive kleptocratic inheritance schemes it metastasizes. The rich have always fucked with "the little people" for their own entertainment. That's the dark nature of capitalism. It's not fucking socialism if someone is able to do this because the very system makes that literally impossible by definition.
Lincoln Myers
As you can see many theaters were bought out only to be empty

>Ever since the fall of the Soviet Union and the Socialist Bloc, annual polling by the Levada Center has shown that over 50 percent of Russia's population lamented its collapse, with the only exception to this being in the year 2012 when support for the Soviet Union dipped below 50 percent. A 2018 poll showed that 66% of Russians regretted the fall of the Soviet Union, setting a 15-year record. The majority were people older than 55.
Movies been packed all weekend out in Oregon. Guarantee all these empty theaters are not legit showings. Probably taking pictures of empty theaters claiming it was Captain Marvel. I know for a fact I there were 12 seats left for the first showing I tried going into 30 minutes before it started and it was so packed I traded my tickets for the next showing because I was with three other people and didn’t want to sit in the front row. Showed up early for the next showing and got solid seats but that theater was completely full.

Problem with that is that is presale tickets. Most people, including myself don’t generally buy tickets ahead of time especially if it’s not a movie I’m super hype about. They just show up before the movie starts. There were ridiculous lines to get tickets and the theaters were packed for Captain Marvel out here. I personally thought it was one of the weakest movies in the MCU but most people seemed to like it and it was definitely packed.
Kevin Kelly
look atIts not presale tickets people are just not watching it
Noah Sullivan
>the film is a box office success? But I hated it, how could that possibly be the case? >Jews and communists buying movie tickets
Carson Baker
>hundred year damage control campaign for the worst ideology ever invented in human history i You were talking about capitalism here, right? I love how this is even being debated. Look where the hell you are, you complete fucking faggot. You're in a thread debating the fact that a monopoly has enough power to just get away with raping the shit out of all visual media and you're STILL trying to blame some fictitious incidence of communism you think is active in Hollywood. You are literally terminally insane.
Yeah notice how there isn’t a single thing on any of the screens in any of those pictures minus one that has an advertisement on. They are clearly theaters that were not playing anything. The one with the advertisement is likely a worker at the theater or someone who showed up super early. Or in countries that don’t give a fuck. I’ve never walked into a theater and had absolutely nothing on the screens. Those pictures are complete bullshit. I went to two showings out here because the first one was so packed I didn’t want to sit in the front row. The next showing I went to was completely full too.
Adam Butler
That's a lot of fucking strawmen for one post. Go look up what the most common majors are. Getting real fucking tire of these 100% pure uncut lies Fox """"news"""" keeps melting moron brains with.

Last Tuesday I walked into Spiderverse with a blank screen. The projector didn't even turn on until like a minute until show time. It was weird.

Colton Cox
No I show up early. I was thirty minutes early for the first showing that I didn’t end up seeing because it was fucking packed. Theaters play advertisements before previews start. Every single theater I have ever been to had advertisements running silently before the movies start. Regal, AMC, Cinetopia, Century, even small theaters have something playing when you get in. It’s always silent advertisements and shit and then the previews start.
I mean my god in one of those pictures the curtains weren’t even open to the screen. That is complete bullshit.
Gabriel Bennett
reminds me of the deception behind Hillary rallies
Jose Gutierrez
Yes, better to believe all the people who haven't actually gone to see the movie right? All of these empty theater pics are either fake or taken way early, one of them the screen isn't even on yet, one has a timestamp at :43 when the movie ticket says :30 so they're posting about an empty theater over 45 mins before it even starts, etc. Even this morning the 10 and 10:30 showing were both full and I don't live in a libtard city.
Why so much fucking cope over something so stupid it's a Marvel movie how could anyone believe it's not making money? The movie was OK, entertaining, not great not awful.
Ian Edwards
>there isn’t a single thing on any of the screens in any of those pictures minus one that has an advertisement on. You must be a desperate shill or actually blind.

Yep better do damage control on their 450$ million open.
Seems more like all you incels are doing damage control just like when this same thing happened for Black Panther.
Henry Ortiz
Exactly. Not a single picture with the movie on. Several of them the projectors aren’t even on. One the screen still has the curtains pulled over the screen!
Was curious how you guys are coping after the massive opening. Was pretty much how I expected.
I didn’t even really like the movie but I knew you guys would be scrambling calling controversies and posting fake pictures of empty theaters. Funny shit.
