Star Wars - Doubling down on agenda

So if/when Captain Marvel makes a ton of money the narrative from reactionaries will be whatever it makes it should have made more.

Sounds like a great way to make sure you can justify whatever your beef is with the movie regardless of what it is like or how it performs. Not that I can begrudge you for trying, it seemed to belatedly work for the comicsgate crowd until it the movement began to fall apart and it was proven their agenda was a sham and when they got the kind of comics they pushed for it didn't sell and those they piled hate did. I don't know how that will work with movies though, I think you're going to find it difficult to find impartial commentators to spin the kind of numbers the movie will likely do as a bad thing.

Even more so with Episode 9 which (even if I haven't fully warmed to the first two new trilogy movies) will probably make the kind of money that anyone will find hard to argue with.
