No. People are excited for two hyped films and are providing some relief to what has been a mediocre summer session. And they will provide a few weeks of success until whatever takes over next at the movie theater.

Doesn't seem all that different from gamers memeing up the whole Animal Crossing + Doom Eternal thing a few years back.

I actually think it's pretty great and rather ingenious.

Even better that their marketing team isn't headed by people like TC and they embraced it, helping both promote their films and aid in success.

This is infinitely more creative than all the lazy fucks who just add gate to the end of everything as a reference to Watergate, as if that was somehow the first presidential scandal our nation has ever had.

I just saw a post today where a dude had an outfit that was legit half Oppenheimer and half Barbified, with the quote "I am become Barbenheimer" and he was walking around dressed like that. And, in case you're wondering, the Barbie side did have a high heel while the Oppen had a dress shoe.

This is something people can actually have fun with and enjoy, I agree that adding -gate to the end of everything because of laziness and lack of imagination is sucky, but this isn't that. The name comes after we had already spent awhile with the memes promoting each other.

Side note, it is hilarious how I saw a few people say "stop calling it OceanGate" because of that gripe and that is just legit the company's name lol.

Not only that, but I heard that opening weekend where they supposedly beat out the new Indiana Jones movie, right wing PACs bought like ten million dollars in tickets to artificially bolster returns and create buzz.

It wouldn't surprise me if this were true... we know conservative "authors" have PACs mass buy up copies of their books to get them on the New York Times bestseller list, then give away those books at conventions and events later.

There is truth to this. Groups bought out some theaters and gave away the tickets. Also, there was a lot of "pay it forward" tickets. It certainly made its money in a way that makes it unfair to compare to others. But the fact remains that a ton of people (mostly right wing) saw it and it has made a huge profit.

I'll never watch it.

Yup the so called 100 million in sales is astroturfed.

I see topics like these and I just imagine a bitter, miserable person behind a screen who doesnt have friends and rather than just let other people have fun, he needs to bring them down to his level of misery too.
