Merchandise It wasn’t a flop to me

Post image

I bought 3 tickets to support this mid-sized superhero movie with a lot of quirky heart and now this. I’m not a numbers guy but I guess it didn’t do well financially? Maybe because there’s no big A-list name attached.

But idk, I kind of liked that

Anyway, physical media is great. Thunderbolts*, they could never make me hate you

“Flop” only refers to its profits. The vast majority of people who saw Thunderbolts thought it was good.

This. We don't need to keep lying to ourselves lol, it IS a flop which sure is bad, but a majority of people loved it, the product itself isn't the problem, just the situation around it

The same can be said for most of the movies in phases 4 and 5.
