Let's play a game.
Spectre made 3.5x its budget. Rotten Tomatoes score: 65%
The Force Awakens made 6.5x its budget. Rotten Tomatoes: 92%
Captain America: Civil War: 4.6x its budget, 90%
Batman v. Superman: 3.5x its budget, 27%
Fake Ghostbusters: 1.3x its budget, 74%
Suicide Squad (after two weekends): 2.7x its budget, 27%
Does... does one of these numbers really really REALLY stick out as something of an inexplicable outlier?
Y'see, the PC SJW Hollywood Left tried to ram Fake Ghostbusters down our throats, Hillary-style. "Look! Women over 40 can totally carry a film!" We The Audience said, "no thank you."
So along comes Margot Robbie In Hot Pants, and the PC SJW Hollywood Left goes apoplectic. "How dare people want to see a hot, funny, 26-year-old in skimpy clothing instead of a fat frumpy 40-something in a boiler suit? Suicide Squad must be bad! It must it must it must, because my worldview will be invalidated if it is successful." These people know, deep down, that Fake Ghostbusters is absolutely terrible, but if the world doesn't play along with their little lie, then the world must be wrong and anyway, how dare someone put a sexy woman in an action film?
And, yes, you also have your Marvel fanatics and your Snyder-haters. But I just want to call out the PC SJW Hollywood Left and offer them a very fine f*ck you, and have a nice day.
