I dunno. You really think parents (or at least the ones who are paying attention) are gonna take their kids to see a movie with a “Protect Trans Kids” poster in it?
I once had a conversation with a guy who had no idea that Blue’s Clues had a Pride segment with trans beavers that had scars from top surgery or that they even mentioned pansexuality. When I mentioned that to him, he was shocked and became outraged. He declared that there would be no more Blue’s Clues in his house and that his kids would have to play with something else.
Besides, there’s already a superhero fatigue among the audience, which is part of the reason why Marvel movies have been bombing lately. And since the movie has already been spoiled online, a lot of people are probably not even gonna bother watching this.
Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe this will be a hit regardless of the subliminal messaging in it. However, the media initially scoffed at the idea of boycotting Bud Light or Target, and well, look at the stock of those companies right now.
