Kelly Tran Wedding banquetET was promoted as a widely released, widely released, bizarre, Superweek, gay remake that died like a handful of films at the box office this weekend.
This isn’t awakening, it breaks.
This wakes up, sticks out into the spoke, hits the ground, starts suffocating, and suffers a stroke, then breaks the cloak.
Wedding banquet Opened at 1,142 theatres on Friday and made precisely – Teehee – $922,906.
Maybe you can find out why an ordinary person doesn’t find it unattractive from this description:
[Kelly Marie] Tran leads the heartfelt rom-com as Angela, a scientist who is a quarter of a queer friend group in Seattle. Angela and her partner, Lee (Lily Gladstone), want to start a family, but Lee’s expensive IVF treatment is not working. Another couple, Chris (Boenyang) and Min (Hanggi-chan), live in the garage. When Min’s wealthy grandmother (Young Yoo-joon) pressures him to leave his artistic life behind to play an important role in the Korean family business, and given that his student visa is about to be invalidated, Min scrambles to find a way to stay in the US. His plan? Stages his marriage to Angela to secure a green card, and he pays for Lee’s IVF treatment in return.
Maybe it hurts bad reviews? No: 88% fresh Rotten tomatoes. Critics love this shit.
Maybe it was review bombed by the evil right wing? No: 82% fresh from movie fans.
Maybe people don’t want to watch the original movie anymore? No: That’s a remake 1993 movie It earned $23.6 million 32 years ago.
See the explanation:
- “One quarter of a queer friend group”
- “IVF treatment”
- “His student visa is likely to be invalidated.”
- “Securing a green card”
Who is the constituency in this film? Come one, come on everything, you’re a gay illegal alien trying to conceive through IVF!
Imagine the bub arrogance needed to drop this into nearly 1,200 theaters.
To give you the idea of how bad it is Wedding banquet The re-release of a 20-year-old film, performed, has more than doubled the per-screen average. Pride and prejudice (2005) Enjoyed 20th Anniversary re-release 1,393 theatres This weekend, I made $2.7 million on an average of $1,938 per screen. Wedding banquet The average per screen was only $808. This means they could have thrown live grenades at those theatres without hurting anyone.
Meanwhile, the animated story of Christ from Angel Studio, King of Kingsgarnered an additional $17.3 million after two weekends, totaling $45.3 million. Ah, and Selected: Last Dinner Parts 1, 2, and 3 It has earned a total of nearly $45 million, and it is a TV show that will soon be streamed for free.
No, I’ve never seen it Wedding banquet. I don’t see gay stuff.
