'Sound Of Freedom' Is a Superhero Movie for Dads With Brainworms
'Sound of Freedom': Jim Caviezel child trafficking thriller is a box-office bash, and QAnon believers are celebrating
Your arguments in that case are about the merits of the film (whether it sucks or not). I’m talking about a film that claims to be truthful but has proven to be not.Didn’t you recently mock another poster for saying he knew about a film before he saw it because he had “researched “ it extensively? Sounds like that’s what YOU are saying now.
JC are you serious? Now you’re accusing us of being child traffickers??All of the media has their talking points they are dispersing. So much jouranlisming.
Hollywood doesn't seem to want to give this issue exposure. Probably hits a bit close to home.
SameI will likely watch it at some point when it is available to stream.
But you liked The Woman King, right?Your arguments in that case are about the merits of the film (whether it sucks or not). I’m talking about a film that claims to be truthful but has proven to be not. Again, you don’t see the distinction.
Some people manufacturing reasons not to see this is disappointing but then again those same people aren’t going to go into it without any bias and the film won’t hit them as deeply as it does most. Very powerful film that should be seen without distractions.
Haven’t seen the movie yet, so I won’t judge it, but …Or maybe you have your own bias which allows you to be more receptive and have the film hit harder than most?
There is no manufactured reasoning.
If anything, there has been very light pushback against this - especially considering the outrage machine against other recent films
The film by all accounts does a good job distancing itself from Q and the potential preachiness
However, the film has also given the face of the movie a giant microphone and he's leaned in to fully use it for Q
I personally find Q to not only be distasteful, but also dangerous.
It's not a far line that when someone who buys into Q and into the elements about satanists elites running a global child sex trafficking ring to harvest the blood and organs for adrenochrome ends up being the lead actor in a movie about child sex trafficking that there is s chance of some QAnon sneaking in
To the films credit, that does not seem to be the case
Again though, it does give a microphone to the lead actor to speak on the topic and push Q conspiracies, which are dangerous
Does anyone find any of this stuff sane?!?

There is an important conversation to be had
That conversation has zero to do with an adrenochrome thirsty cabal and the more you associate that, the less credible your conversation becomes
It's also no coincidence people like wayward fan are trying to take a victory lap that it outperformed Indiana Jones - even if it takes a lot of stretching too make that claim. It also beat Spidey that day and a bunch of other movies...... So why single out Indy?
He also spots the common refrain that Hollywood and the elites wanted to suppress and kill this movie because it exposes them
We're one post about Chris Cornell and others being silenced from the bingo card.........
Explain what part of the movie was misrepresented. The raid portion of the sting operation was actually filmed (they filmed footage of all their raids) and some actual footage was shown at the end before the credits (some faces blurred).Misrepresenting a true story is a big deal to some people. Not to you apparently.
Yeah! You go Dan! Way to show Chap that Black people also take liberties with history making movies to stick it to the lib!But you liked The Woman King, right?

… how about Erin Brockovitch?Yeah! You go Dan! Way to show Chap that Black people also take liberties with history making movies to stick it to the lib!
Haven’t seen the movie yet, so I won’t judge it, but …
it’s ironic to call sex trafficking QAnon nonsense when Epstein literally happened. I can see the doubt five years ago, but that’s not the world we live in now.
Indy is doing 3x this movie and is beating it again this weekendBeating Indy should have been more impressive since Spidy has been out for weeks and it was the first week of Indy's release. Indy should have been crushing everything if Disney and KK didn't drop the ball so hard.
It was actually made by 20th Century Fox years ago. Disney refused to release the movie and the production company bought it from them.Lets see, should I watch this movie?
1) It is made by a religious production company and is free to view; 2) It stars an actor that makes religious movies that is a QAnon advocate; and 3) Its subject is the basis for QAnon conspiracy theories.
I think I'll pass. It may be a well-made movie and entertaining, but it is not something I will likely enjoy watching.
Indiana Jake made $26.5M on 4,600 screens.Indy is doing 3x this movie and is beating it again this weekend
There is a very specific reason for the Indy call out - the same reason people were up in arms about Indy to begin with
Sound is doing really well.
Just some of the cheerleaders are a bit transparently obnoxious
Lol. Dude… go join a Fight Club and get it over with already.Indiana Jake made $26.5M on 4,600 screens.
Sound of Freedom made $18.2M on 2,852 screens.
Indiana Jake made $26.5M on 4,600 screens.
Sound of Freedom made $18.2M on 2,852 screens. Not sure how that works out to 3x.
Also, Sound of Freedom make $6,388/screen while Indiana Jake made $5,760/screen. So, Sound of Freedom is making more money per screen.
And there are only 8 movies to hit 100 million in the box office.
I'm showing 15 over $100m - which includes those at $200m +
Still a weird year
No you didn't.Yes I said 7 at 200 and 8 at 100 that equals 15
