Apparently the Red Sonja actress crapped on the source material and said it would be very female empowered and then said something about the “male gaze”.
I love 70s through 90s Conan comics and would sometimes buy Red Sonja along with them. Also there are some great books as well as the original Robert E Howard Conan (which I read a few months ago). Goes without saying that the audience for Red Sonja is male and in the lore (not sure if they have changed it or not) she said she would share her bed with the man who can beat her in a fight. So I’d personally end the movie where she meets the man who defeats her.
Honestly a Conan or Red Sonja series with violence and sexy women would do great. Which is why they would rather give us butchered Wheel of Time or Rings of Power
I see the silver lining here. Any company that sinks resources into things like this will inevitably go bankrupt. The ones that don't will survive and thrive.
It is nice that Hollywood and the AAA gaming industry have gone full mask off, since the normies are forced to finally pay attention and vote with their wallets like the rest of us.
Lots of frogs are jumping out of the pot, and the coming collapse of all of these institutions is going to be beautiful.
The funny thing about this is all these losses get absorbed by the ponzi scheme that is the American stock market so nothing fails until everything collapses all at once.
Going to be interesting days ahead.
Investors are driven by self interest. A company may care more about pushing the message than about making a profit, but their investors don't. The only message they care about is "fuck you, pay me". Blackrock and Vanguard may be able to absorb their losses for a while, but they are beholden to their investors too in the long run.
If you don't believe me, just take a look at what Disney's stock has done for the last two years.
