Let me clear from the jump: I saw Superman and thought it was excellent. It was non-political. It had nothing to do with the illegal immigration debate that the left and the media (but I repeat myself) claims is an immigration debate. It was a fun comic book movie. But it’s 2025, and we can’t have nice things. James Gunn, after first refusing to take the bait and then allegedly taking the bait, is now using politics as a scapegoat for disappointing ticket sales.
Funny, because I had expected this to be an issue with Fantastic Four, though through no fault of the movie and entirely because of the press. Our culture wars start with journalismers who don’t cover politics wanting to insert their politics into everything. Actors answer politically charged questions awkwardly because, silly them, thought they were there to answer questions about a movie. Everyone else has a knee-jerk reaction and gets their clicks in.
Yes, that includes way too many people on the right. Disliking sports and movies is not a substitute for a personality.
The actor playing The Thing was the only one it hadn’t happened to (yet), so expectations were low. Plus, it’s Disney. Know what I mean?
Instead? It sounds like they finally nailed a Fantastic Four movie.
Back to Superman, the movie is suffering from disappointing box-office sales. It has generated hundreds of millions of dollars. However, it costs hundreds and millions more to produce and market. Movies that expensive rely on a global audience to make up the difference. Superman isn’t hitting it’s marks.
So, per Gunn, it’s totes Trump’s fault.
“Superman is not a known commodity in some places. He is not a big known superhero in some places like Batman is. That affects things. And it also affects things that we have a certain amount of anti-American sentiment around the world right now. It isn’t really helping us.”
