It really is sad to see good movies failing because of bad marketing and bad choices
Morning Peter, Katie, and Andy! Looking forward to seeing you on tonight's livestream and I'll be glad to break down what led to this movie's box office failure if you're interested.
Spot on, as usual guys.
I think that there is no fixing this until the industry openly accepts that THEY have driven away their customer base.
They need to admit that they did this to themselves, that the campaign against large sections of the fan base was ill considered and that they are eager to find a way to bring us back.
Personally I think that there is room for all tastes in Cinema, but we have to realise that some niches are more suited to an indy treatment than a full blockbuster and particularly that dragging the majority of your audience down in order to empower the minority is a massive mistake. Equality in representation not equity is the way to go.😁
Right on!
Great point and I agree. There is room to tell stories for all tastes. Hollywood has become obsessed with one story or maybe more accurately a belief in their being a "correct story". Movies like mad max also do not need these sorts of massive budgets.
@@holdmydualshock a 'correct story', brilliant. Humans are story telling animals, it is very possibly our defining characteristic. The idea of there being a 'correct story' is cultural bigotry. Until they realise that their worship of false Idols is what will destroy them they can't be helped and as a result even when they produce something worth the ticket price it will fail. Which is a pity. I would hope though that honest brokers, such as yourselves, can, through your reviews, alert the rest of us to the occasional worthwhile watching experience.
I love that term. Cultural bigotry is correct. If we want diversity in our society that comes with a diversity of our stories. So many wonderful stories from cultures around the world will likely never get told or explored because they don't fit into this narrow paradigm of storytelling Hollywood deems "correct"
Hollywood has done so many terrible female lead and girl boss movies 🍿 that furiosa is suffering because people are assuming that it’s just another one in a long line of bad movies with a female protagonist. I believe that I’m fair minded and even I said that a mad max movie should have mad max in it. So they even had that hill to get over as well. When people get something stuck in their minds about someone or something, it’s hard to overcome it even when it’s not true. Even if Furiosa is a good movie 🍿, it’s going to suffer because of the negative feelings that people have about “girl boss” movies even though it’s not one. People won’t even give it a chance because they assume it’s just like the others. It’s really sad when people take negative feelings or stereotypes about people and things and apply those negative feelings to other people and things that have nothing to do with the fact of why they have those feelings in the first place. Furiosa is a victim of this type of thinking. Marketing has a lot to do with it, but some people can have this mindset even if there was no marketing. They see it’s a female led movie, and they will pass. They tend to generalize people and things not giving them a chance. So sad 😞.
Exactly! Too many girl boss movies since Force Awakens is precisely the core reason Furiosa failed.
The studios are upset that people aren't going to see their movies, but when they focus the marketing on social politics instead of the merits of the film, it creates an audience that becomes skeptical as to where they want to spend their money.
As I see it the trend of movies, even good ones flopping will continue because of the marketing, media circuit and pushing of ideology.
From the looks of this movie (not seen it) it should have been pretty successful if advertised as an expansion of the Mad Max Universe so more Miller and less Mad Max mentions. Then market Chris Hemsworth's character as well as TJ's Furiosa. That would have attracted both Male and Female audiences in terms of a well crafted female lead with an interesting and well created Male baddy on top of the fact people like both ATJ and CH as good looking people (lets be honest).
Instead you have had years of these studios, writers, directors, producers, media and even actors attacking the male audience but still expecting them to part with their money and taking them for granted. They have answered with apathy and the current targeted audience of woman and minorities also don't like poor quality or being pandered to so many of them have entered the stage of apathy to the entire industry. The audience just isn't there.
Add on top of that the huge price increase of cinemas these days, it's a luxury many can't afford. All this means poor box office takings and it's not going to change any time soon.
They know their audience. It's the modern audience. Come on...Everyone knows the modern audience. It's the audience that doesn't exist.
Yup the phantom audience who never seems to show up. They are often cited but never seen.
Unfortunately there RUclips channels knows this not a girl boss movie and not woke but continue saying it’s woke to fit there narrative but I attack them logic in kind way there’s one coming around saying he will go see it and said thank you but others had their mind up no matter what I’ve seen the movie it’s a good movie good storytelling in my opinion they made Furiosa 2 or 3 years after Fury road while the character fresh in their mind not now especially economy the way is now with the inflation
Yea it has taken way too long for this movie to come out if they were hoping to capitalize on fury road.
@@holdmydualshock oh well maybe it might have legs since nothing big comes out this weekend but overall a lot of movies has been flopping still shock the fall guy been flopping the way it has despite 2 big stars attach to it coming from 2 big success films of last year Barbie and Oppenheimer guess Stardom doesn’t matter these days
Hope you're all doing well, @HoldMyDualShock!Reviews because I am looking forward to tonight!
its so funny to hear these two chuckle heads... they talk like they know everything about how to sell movies, but zack snyder, even if he make total shit, would just sell to these two, your disingenuousness is your undoing
No.. Furiosa is a horrible movie... and nobody wanted to learn more about Furiosa... Nobody was waiting for this movie... that's why it failed.
