Disney ruined any chance to defend the film by blaming consumers for not wanting original movies and how is actually our fault the film flopped. (It's a cute film by the way, and Elio is kinda hot)
Kill yourself a million times.
>Elio is kinda hot
>>150171968I really appreciate that this happened just before Kpop Demon Hunters blew up, proving them wrong.
>>150171968there was a dude who saw a post that someone made that said something like>"elio looks like he was designed by someone who was molested as a kid and liked it"and i just can't help but wonder if that had something to do with the movie's downfall
>>150172172I mean it's beanmouth. They all look like that. Unless the style itself was invented by molested boys who liked it.
>>150171968>and Elio is kinda hot>waaaah why doesn't /co/ support my gay shota bullshit
>>150171968The funniest part is when they said they had to tone down the gayness of the kid to make him more “masculine” and he still comes off as the queerest homo child since Steven Universe. Like I can’t even comprehend how fucking gay he must have been in the original drafts.
>>150172227Maybe if they went with the original script it would've been a success instead.
>>150172271It'd bomb harder, but we'd get YouTube essays that loved the SOVL behind its queer messaging. Now, it's just a bomb.
>>150172271keep saying this in every thread like it's a magic spell that will make it true
>>150172315This is the first time I'm saying it.
Is it worse or better than Wish and Strange World?
>>150171968>Disney ruined any chance to defend the film by not making it any good and mostly about a director's self-insert which barely scratched by in Turning Red plus it's another goddamned brown queerbait shota stockholders aren't interested in the message, they're interested in whether the thing's going to make toys kids scream for
>>150172044I’m sure the executives ignore Demon Hunters by insisting that’s a streaming movie whereas Elio was a theatrical release(the limited sing along release for Demon Hunters doesn’t count). So these are completely unrelated products.
>>150172469the same executives who decided "Mars Needs Moms" flopped because of the word Mars in the title leading to the box office fuckup "John Carter"
>>150172271It probably would have. At least then there would have been some point to the damn movie, and that semblance of artistic aspiration would have appealed to audiences.
>>150172448Better. Way better. It doesn't have the incoherent messaging of Wish and the boringness and ugliness of Strange World.
>>150172172the original director is a gay man so it's likely accurate
>>150172449I'm also disappointed in how weird the aliens designs were, definitely not marketable . They should have made a humanoid alien like Goku, so kids can buy toys, and I can get my gay shota couple
>>150172448It's well written. I think children would love it if the aliens didn't look so bad
>>150172505>>150172556I'll give it a shot then. Haven't watched anything Disney or Pixar since Encanto.
