The Little Mermaid is supposed to be one of the crown gems of the modern Disney Library, right next to Lion King and Aladdin, 90's superhits that any parent who grew up in the 80's and 90's was supposed to adore and want to go see again with their kids. I know my sister loved Ariel as a kid, has a few daughters herself (One with red hair too) and never even considered going to see this, just was a passive whatever response to it all. It stagnated, propped up by going all in at appealing entirely to 20-30% of the nation that hates White people with expectations of others silently filing in as called for. I'm sure beancounters in Florida expected the numbers to be massive, Covid has ended and seeing a movie about fish and sailors swimming in the ocean during summer should be a smash hit, kids are out of school and could be cycling into theaters.
Expect the next Disney Live Action movie announced to be Pocahontas, and go all in on vilifying White Man.
