    Based on online hype, it could be believed that it was going to be the highest grossing movie of all time.

    It was an unmitigated disaster and complete flop.

    Nobody went to see the piece of shit. Everybody talked about it online.

      Huh, I’m amazed - I wasn’t exposed to any of that. I’d only seen the memes about it afterwards.

        Think about opening your favorite social media app, and seeing 60% of the posts in support of something… And then when the day comes that thing receives about 1% of RL support.

        Snakes on a Plane. Enthusiasm for Democrats 2024.

          Damn this explains why I never saw it but did heard of it online

          Kinda like the opposite with Avatar from Cameron. The more people diss on the fans, the more they galvanize to see it
