Have we as a society just permanently moved on from romcoms?
>>216046038the target demographic is miniscule. even gay people prefer to watch basic white girl movies instead of full-on gay shit.
>>216046038>Bald, I'm kino
>>216046038>movie about fags loving other fags while hanging around even gayer fags Hmmmm….I wonder why.
>>216046038Most of the world isn't gay, most of the world doesn't care about gays, and I'm assuming that most of the world doesn't even like gays all that much.This movie does nothing but pander to not just gays, but the antagonistic type of gays, that actively hold antipathy towards straight people. Why are you asking why this movie flopped? Are you... retarded?
>>216046226OP is just baiting for people to start posting and ranting about faggots
>>216046038Homosexuality is a mental illness. No one wants to watch 90 mins of mentally ill freakazoids sucking each other’s dick.
>>216046300Yet somebody spents months making, editing and paying for it
Gay faggots like to watch American Horror Story and RuPaul's Drag Race, not whatever this is.
Gay shit like this is made by committee and it comes off as patronizing. It always has to have some crossover appeal to straights and ends up feeling like Will And Grace, outdated faggy garbage. No one likes it.
>>216046038No female lead. Thats it. If there had been a prominent female lead played by a popular actress, even if its just the sassy best friend character to the main gay guy, then more women would have seen it. Women are the ones who watch rom coms and they want to be seeing themselves in the movie.
>>216046038It's a Judd Apatow type comedy (even visually looks similarly bland to Judd Apatow films) made when everyone got sick of Judd Apatow and realized that these type of comedies were kind ass from the getgo.It's also about homosexuality, and that's is particularly bad for this kind of movie. Normalfags who like bland comedies would not like a gay romcom, and homosexuals don't like this kind of bland shit, they watch camp like Ryan Murphy or artsy stuff (see the box office for Call me By Your Name or Moonlight). The fact that this is not even relatable to most faggots adds further insult to injury. This is about two suburbanite upper middle class dudebro (literally the movie is named Bros) Gen X fags. That's a tiny part of an already minority populace. What the fuck was anyone thinking with this is a mystery.
Who exactly was the target audience for this movie? >Women? Women watch romcoms to fantasize about being swept off their feet. They don't want to watch gay men. >Homosexual men Maybe but there really aren't that many of them. Homosexual men don't even like romcoms It also didn't help that the director went on a Twitter spergout and told people they were homophobic if they didn't watch his movie. He was literally the Dr Phil "Fuck you, give me $10" meme
>>216046038Id guess many the majority of the cinema going population cannot self insert to a story about falling in love with a fellow gay man.that is not to say people cannot be empathetic to gay culture, since Philadelphia is a well loved movie
>>216046038This is the kind of movie that would normally be made for less than a million dollars and go straight to TV on The Gay Channel. A $30 million budget and who knows how much more for marketing peddling it at the mainstream was a very expensive experiment and very quickly showed Universal why it was a bad idea.
Birdcage is how youre supposed to make a comedy about gays. You need to "normal" character son who is the doorway to the crazy world.Same for the gay couple in Modern Family
>>216046038>BALD IM KINO
>>216046038Best romcom is a softcore vn disguised as a cyoa slop
>>216046038people aren't dating any more. Romcoms just make zoomers sad and uncomfortable
>>216046038F A G S
>>216046145Oh oh oh Norwood 1+ bros
I saw this movie, it was pretty bad. If you want gay kino watch Dicks The Musical
>>216046300>Homosexuality is a mental illness.More like cancer.
>>216046038Ears below eyes, tiny chin, ugly permanent scowl lips.
>>216046226Antipathy towards straightoids is based.
>>216046038nobody wants to see a movie about faggotsnot even faggots themselves
>>216046038Are they gays?
>>216046287that's within his rights
>>216046038I don't go to see movies in theatersI extra don't go to see faggot shit
people only want to watch movies about gays if at least one of them is cute and effeminatenobody wants to see some middle aged men kissing
>>216048184I do. Effeminate gays are bottom-tier.
Gay romances are only succesful if they have twinks.
>>216046420this, chicks love being the third wheel/in the middle of a gay romance
didn't it premier at about the same time as monkeypox was being found exclusively in homosexuals and the children and pets of homosexuals? ya know, just before monkeypox stopped existing at all, as far as the media was concerned?
>>216046038>bald im kinokino
>>216046038Because no one wants to watch a movie about men sucking shit out of each other's assholes.
>>216046038>poopen cock sharten really?
As a gay man, where do I begin? (Disclaimer: I only saw the film because early in the year, E! Network started airing it at 5AM in the morning and my night shift job completely fucked my sleep schedule so I now only get to bed around 7-8AM these days)>>It was written by a city loving gay about city loving gays who basically make their living via gay grievance industry and base their entire lives around their faggotry. This alienates actual normal gays, especially those who DON'T worship city life and more to the point, don't live the gay bubble and who don't parasitically make their living off of gay grievance industry. >>Billy's love interest wasn't hot and boring as shit. >>Of all of the stunt casting bits, the only ones that might have worked was Amanda Bearse and Stanley Tucci and both were wasted. >>The plot was boring.>>Eichler was decent in it, but he fucking made the film radioactive with his ranting and hate mongering in the lead up and aftermath of it flopping and it turned people off. >>But the biggest thing, is that Eichler was n-word faggot retarded thinking he could making this film a box office hit. Like it or not, gay films turn a profit purely off of word of mouth, slow roll out to theaters, and most of all home video sales. But he wanted a huge box office hit rather than taking the long game and letting the film build up a cult following.
>NOOO YOU NEED TO WATCH FAGGOTS SUCK UND FUCK HAIRY MAN ASSHOLES....BECAUSE YOU JUST DO OK???
>>216048372This. Nobody wants to see grown men going at it. Not even gays themselves.
>>216046038Ugh... That poster is so fucking gay.
The most surprising thing to me was that this bitch is actually in the movie.
Jim Rash was fangirling over some woman in this movie and I had no idea who that was, I knew Jim rash though
They spent 100 million on it which means they're looking for somewhere around a 300 million gross. That's a lot for any comedy but unheard of for a gay one. It's like eichner got pissed it didn't turn into some cultural movement like rocky horror picture show. Should have stuck with a 25 million budget and been creative
>>216047361>WomenThere's fujos, but they seem to prefer fantasising about characters they already like becoming fags rather than being served fags directly.
>>216050188It was "only" 22 million, but that's still a lot for a movie that's basically just faggots fucking around. No big names or any special effects.
>>216050188>>216050265you always have to spend $20+ million on marketing. even an actual masterpiece like Anora had to spend $18m, 3x the actual budget, and that was only enough for a total box office of 58m because most people won't go to the cinema to watch drama or comedy any more.
>>216046038
>>216048828>As a gay man, where do I begin?You turn way from this life style and start a family with a nice woman.
>>216046038>>216046657no, it is not.it's barely romance, the movie has them going from orgies to gangbangs and ending the movie with a art gallery of all the "Heroes that died from AIDs"there is no romance in this film, it's not romantic
>>216049320Is this movie also a flop ?
>>216046038The feet scene wasn't good enough.
>>216049392Why does the Trump Administration suck French dick.
>>216046038Men generally don't like rom-coms, so if you're going to sell a rom-com, then target women.
>>216046038I only watch gay movies from /tv/-approved gay directors.
>>216050780Nice try, foid.
"Bros bros..." posting was funny at least.
>>216046038Overly sexual advertising plus the guy himself just doesn't have the charisma to pull of a feature length film. He barely works as an aggressive character who harasses you in the street, most people find him annoying
pic is certified gaykino
>>216051752Can't find any data, but it's a much smaller production, so it wouldn't need to make 50 million just to break even.
>>216046145Jean-Luc bros, is this true??
>>216047610Enjoy never procreating, retard.
>>216046038>BALD! I'm kino!
>>216053735What about Rocky's Horror Picture Show???
>>216053800Barely a gay movie, so weird in its overt sexually it just comes off as autistic and insane. Go to any showing of it at an arthouse theater and everyone in attendance will be some fat autistic person whose genders are literally indiacernable due to shitty haircuts and uniformly fat bodies in dumb clothes. Its for people too nerdy to have sex
>>216046145it's German for "soon in theaters"
>make film for gays>it bombs catastrophically>blame straight peopleGreat idea.
>>216054157Oh really u stupid nigger? It's 4chan for kino
>>216054209I'm very glad his career is over and pleased to hear he died of AIDS
>>216054157It;s literally english you moron, why would Germans talk english? Geez you're stupid, he is literally talking to his bald buddy and saying he is kino.
>>216049392>they're the same picture
>>216046038Let me guess. He seduces a straight guy that was "confused"?
>>216052456because the Trump Administration sucks every dick they can
>>216052883Now THIS nigga is the real "bald - im kino"
>>216054447he's convinced that gay people dont need relationships because they can have casual sex forever but then he falls in love
>>216053735What the fuck is the middle? Looks like typical Debbie kino, but the tag line seems more like femdom shit.
>>216046038Faggot here, I wasn't going to watch some ugly Jew fantasize about fucking White chads
>>216053735fat girl became hot except instead of cw bullshit it's trashy hijinks
>>216054157No one cares about your made up car language.
>>216046038>Film directed by a jew produced by another jew and starring a jew about sodomyColor me shocked
>>216054581>>216054637
>>216054637>>216054760That is disappointing. I would rather have had bully Debbie.
>>216046657Eichner has a vaguely rude frat boy look and street comic persona. He thought this is a crossover for a subset of gays. But he lacks charms to sit for 2hr+. His comic bits were like 2 min long
>>216046038it's one of the worst movies ever made
>>216046038Men are so hot There’s nothing more comforting than lying on a guys thighs
>>216055367https://youtu.be/ZePPc7ISw5I?t=145
I never got the attraction to romcoms. The romance is surface level and the comedy is cheap. Its underserves both genres and belongs along the back wall of an abandoned blockbuster.
okay /tv/ throw me some numbers
>>216050245The gays being in loving and honest relationships instead of raping, cheating on and enslaving each other lost them the fujos.
Only men can truly love men
>>216046145dr. Baldbel, I'm KINO
>>216055456Now I need a password
Handsome Saar
>>216055456here are some digits
>>216046145uh, you don't get to bring hair transplants
>>216055606I bet his dick is tiny and stinky
>>216046038brosbros...
>>216055458Cheating? The only ones who like that shit are men, both straight and gay. Besides, it's not like the stories created by gay men are completely wholesome.
