Current Events > Moana only earned 637 million?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I was sure it'd earn a billion, like Frozen and Zootopia.
---

it didnt have furries or wincest, losing money from the creepy grown ass men market. It really didnt have a chance
---

It wasn't that good, plus most people are racist af.
---

The real downer was The Princess and the Frog. Now we won't see anymore black disney princesses.
---

Moana was great, better than Frozen
---

Didn't everyone get butthurt over the fat character or whatever?
---

I loved that movie but ya people are white and racist.
---

>only

Why would it?

1) It's a brown girl

2) It's a fat dude


Plenty of reasons for certain undesirables to dislike it
---

Ya, it's those DAMN RACIST WHITE PEOPLES FAULT! LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE!

God, CE is awful

The only bitching before the movie came out was from SJWs whining that the guy didn't look ripped like the Rock or Khal Drogo.

but yeah, let's bitch about white people because the movie only made $600m, and compare it to a movie that produced a hit song, and another that was critically well received on all fronts.

"Fuck white people" isn't a tenable position. Just fucking stop it. And yes, all your fucking posts are coming off as exactly that.

edit. I mean god fucking damn. Is it just not possible that the movie wasn't as good? Or was released at the wrong time. Had a poor marketing campaign or tough competition?
Why is it always this race bull shit?!
It's not enough that white people made it, financed it, featured it in their theaters, now they have to like it . . . correction, like it equally as much as other films? It's not like it flopped.
This toxic bull shit is not helping, this shit is why the Trump cultists seem to only have one ideology; "lib tears". You people are fucking poisoning everything.

Stop. STOP. FUCKING STOP IT.

Yeah.....PatF made less money WORLDWIDE than even Moana made domestically. I liked Princess and the Frog.

According to Box Office Mojo, Frozen made over six times as much money ($249 million) in Japan as Moana did there. In the US, Frozen only made 60% more.

In Colombia, Peru and Venezuela, Frozen took in about twice as much as Moana. Brazil very slightly favored Moana, earning about 5% more. The inflation in Brazil during the period between the two movies was close to a quarter, though; it's likely that Moana earned fewer admissions even there.

One of the few parts of the world where Moana attracted more viewers is the Philippines, where it earned about 50% more than Frozen.

Relative to Frozen and Zootopia, Moana did a lot better in the United States than it did in countries that are a lot less white, so there must be some other explanation than white people's racial film preferences for its lower overall performance.

Don't you try to argue with people's totally not racist stereotypes of white people. You're clearly just salty

Ive been staring at the edge of the water as long as I can remember

What else can I say but you're welcome.

It's the snowflakes out there that ruined it. They pissed and moaned about the Maui Halloween outfit being racist so people said fuck that noise and didn't bother going to see the movie.

Eh, the movie just didn't interest me all that much.

I'm sure they'll try again for a black princess.

I'm more saddened that is basically guaranteed 2D animation would never be taken seriously as a feature picture format ever again. >_>

Let's be realistic here.

A pacific islander girl isn't gonna sell as much to the western population as much as some blonde haired blue eyed white girl(or rabbit) that some creeper's/lesbian's/furry's dream.

I'm Peruvian and have lived in Peru.

Racism is alive and well in Peru, and South America in general.


Also Japan has a history of prejudice against brown island natives, particularly from Okinawa.

So throwing non-American countries out doesn't do anything.

The reason I mentioned her being brown matters is because there's a general subconscious lack of interest in non-white protagonists across the globe. Not because people are going "I'm not gonna watch a movie with brown people in it!" At least, not all people, the undesirables I mentioned being an exception.
