Korea’s SBS News reported heading into the weekend that the film had been subject to “ratings terrorism” in an article whose title Korean entertainment website Zapzee translated to “Backlash Against ‘Black Mermaid’: Appearance Ridiculed, Ratings Drop on Day One.”
...
And, in China, it’s just a disaster. There is no audience score on Maoyan, unusual for a film already in release for several days. The box office through Sunday is a dismal RMB 17.7M ($2.5M) with Maoyan projecting a full run of about $4M.

Here are the Top 5 markets on the movie at open: Mexico ($8.5M), UK ($6.3M), Italy ($4.7M), Brazil ($4M) and Australia ($4M). The international IMAX take was $1.5M for $8.5M global.

Globally it is not performing as well overall, coming in at around $68.1 million in 51 markets. Making the global take around $163.5 for three days and $185.6 -$189 million with the 4-day domestic box office take.

Given the amount of money Disney has been spending on marketing for this film, along with the reported $200-$250 million budget, the film still has a long way to go to break even or be considered a success.

TL;DR: Disney was hoping for at least a billion, they'll be lucky to break $400-$500M on a movie that probably cost $250M - globally including the USA

Usually metacritic and rotten track similarly.

My wife took my 10 year old daughter and her friends to this movie on Monday. They liked it. Said there wasn’t any weird sex stuff, some new songs, and other than Ariel’s family looking like the United Nations, it was pretty consistent to the original.
China is very anti-black people as most Asian countries are.

Correct. They consider Blacks to be foul smelling monkeys. Heaven help them if China conquered the US.

Nothing worse than a mermaid computer genius.

I don't hate them and have family that's black. Most people don't like blacks. It's cultural and has become super bad since the 70's to 80's. Family structure be damned. Black men dump and run. They're losers for the most part. Has nothing to do with skin. It's action. White trash people will still have a family and stick around. It can be ugly, but the kids have a mom and a dad or step dad 90% of the time.

And yes I'm pulling the "I have a black friend card." I have a black nephew who's dad went to prison multiple times now. Hasn't been there at all for his kid outside of the clothes he shoplifted, not joking. Nephew lives with me. I love him. Most black people are low IQ. It's just fact. His mom is white and I hate her. So no racial motivation. Just don't be a fucking idiot.

Outcome is social. Your peers matter. My nephew is a god in my town. His only ghetto thing is shoes and I'm fine with that. He doesn't like rap and that bull shit culture. At least modern rap. There used to be thoughtful rap but those days are long gone. Women can be cunts, but when you rap about them being an item for you as a man, that's what young boys will think is normal. And the culture continues. Go get your hoe or whore and call her that. Respect and manliness in the black community is in the shitter. Not turning around in anyone's lifetime on Patnet, let's put it that way.

Black people need to adjust their culture. Not the best read and I've posted it before, but it lays out the difference between Latinos and Blacks in Chicago during the '95 heat wave. The contrast between Latino and Blacks is staggering. Black simply don't give a shit about each other. https://www.amazon.com/Heat-Wave-Autopsy-Disaster-Illinois/dp/0226443221

There's very strong economic incentives by the US government to break up black familes.

It's EASY to get on welfare, PROVIDED, you're black, particularly if you're a single mother. They've been bribed to be this way.

The whole so called MGTOW movement began with black men in the late 1960's.

US culture is centrally controlled. "Entertainment" isn't really entertainment, it's SOCIAL propaganda. We haven't had just pure entertainment since 1970.

People ape what they see on the fucking propaganda box and what they hear in music.
