The Flash (They/Them) Bombs; Disney/Pixar’s Elemental Also Crashes

—Ace

The Flash, starring home-breaking, woman-choking, child-grooming “non-binary” they/them Ezra Miller has bombed even worse than expected.

It had been projected to open at $140 million domestic a few weeks ago. Just before release, that was chopped in half to $70 million domestic, which itself would have been a failure for a movie costing $250 million or more.

Actual first weekend take? 55 million.

A Disney news analyst, WDW_Pro, said the film will be one of the costliest failures of all time, and may lose $300 million.

Disney Pixar released the cartoon Elemental as counter-programming. It failed to counter-program. People largely just decided to sit out this stinker of a movie weekend. Disney Pixar’s latest disaster made only $29 million, not even reaching the very low $31-41 million opening that had been projected.

…

And on the horizon: the coming disaster, Indiana Jones and the Kathleen Kennedy Self-Insert.

…

If Disney were to sell Lucasfilm, which would have to be at a loss, suddenly they would have actual proof that Disney had run Lucasfilm into the ground. …Pixar, bought for $7.4 billion, has also been run into the ground, the MCU, bought for $4 billion, is also producing very “meh” movies too.

So the moment Disney confirms that LucasFilm is now worth less than half than what they paid for it, investors begin figuring that these other pricey purchases are also probably worth less than half of what Disney paid for them, and Disney’s share value plummets on this new information.

So selling LucasFilm for $1.5 billion would probably wipe out $10 billion of Disney’s share value.

That means that Disney has to hold on to all of these purchases just to hide their real (greatly diminished) value from the market.
