Go woke, go broke.
This is a lesson Disney is learning the hard way with its remake of the 1937 original 'Snow White.'
The politically correct version they've just offered is not doing so well.
To say the least.
The winner? Action star Jason Statham.
USA Today reports, "The new Jason Statham action movie 'A Working Man' topped the domestic box office charts with $15.2 million in its first weekend, while 'Snow White' grossed another $14.2 million during its sophomore frame, according to estimates from Comscore."
The report continued, "For 'Snow White,' this was a sharp decline from the film's initial $42 million debut last weekend. How steeply a movie declines in its second weekend can be indicative of whether it will continue to perform well in the weeks to come, making this a worrying sign for Disney."
Ouch.
USA Today added, "The box office debut of 'Snow White' last week was already considered a disappointment compared to how other Disney live-action remakes have performed. The live-action 'The Little Mermaid' opened to $95.5 million over three days, while 'Beauty and the Beast' opened to $174.7 million, 'Aladdin' started with $91.5 million and 'Cinderella' opened to $67.8 million, according to Box Office Mojo."
Maybe Disney - and Hollywood in general - learns a lesson?
Biggest bomb in Disney history?
The lowest rated movie in IMDB history?
A "nonsensical mess."
Disintegrated.
A good weekend for Jason Statham.
What a legacy for Disney.
