None of those are PC, "Wonder Woman" had an awesome female director and the film wasn't even close to PC (and my favorite for 2017)

A PC Quinn would be as follows:

She is violent only to represent her struggle against a failed system, her enemies will all be male stereotypes (and boring ones), her entire journy will like the failed "Charlie Angels" in that male characters are ruthlessly killed but don't really have any narrative reason to do so..

In the end, Quinn will become more an activist for struggling voices (somewhere, Meh, who really cares) and not even get to face the main villian in a climatic showdown (which is a staple of comic book films)..

I knew the trades were to high. My guess of an opening around Ocean 8's .42m {nm} jamesbik333 Feb 07, 04:43

Might be to high. {nm} jamesbik333 Feb 07, 04:46

yep, unfortunately {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 07:30

Get Woke Go Reasonably Profitable? {nm} notfabio Feb 07, 08:19

Nice joke, you friendly bloke, can i interest you in some artichoke? {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 08:31

We definitely need more words that rhyme with woke. {nm} notfabio Feb 07, 08:33

I'm having a stroke from going broke from doing too much coke! {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 08:43

McGregor’s woke, did serve to poke, some knuckle-dragging folk? {nm} RattyBatty Feb 07, 09:08

He sounds like a nice bloke. {nm} HurricaneKid Feb 07, 10:44

Meh. If the film is bold and doesn't go the PC route (which doesn't fit Quinn's character appeal), it will succeed off word of mouth. {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 08:22

Spoke too soon about DC >>> Marvel? Going "PC" is what's bold. {nm} Antibody Feb 07, 08:32

If they make Quinn PC, the film will be a disaster. Literally the entie Spring box office frame hinges on this. {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 08:40

If? What trailers have you been watching? WB hired a female director. Quinn dumped Joker and formed a girl gang. {nm} Antibody Feb 07, 08:42

That's your opinion. A "PC" or woke Quinn, is one made with the female gaze rather than the typical male gaze. {nm} Antibody Feb 07, 08:53

This is why Captain Marvel will never break $400m! {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:04

God you're something else. I never predicted it wouldn't.. I pointed out that "if" it didn't, it'd be a bad record to have. In fact: VictorY Feb 07, 09:08

How's your portfolio. clinger? Is it too woke? {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Feb 07, 09:14

want a cookie? {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:16

Right now, we have a weird world where "Captain Marvel" has a higher Rotten critic rating than "Joker," and Joker leads in Oscar noms VictorY Feb 07, 09:21

Audiences liked CAPTAIN MARVEL more than JOKER {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:25

I thought you said Rotten's audience ratings weren't accurate? And were spiked. Hench why I focus on the critics. Did you change your mind? {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 09:27

I'm not looking at Rotten Tomatoes for anything {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:30

(Face palm) Then nevermind. We're not even talking the same thing. {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 09:31

What was Captain Marvel's Cinemascore grade? {nm} SenJohnBlutarsky Feb 07, 09:33

A vs B+ for JOKER {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:36

I'm talking about reality and actual data! {nm} Moviesnob Feb 07, 09:35

CMARV outgrossed JOKER. {nm} Antibody Feb 07, 09:40

You literally spent months arguing that Captain Marvel was responsible for other films crashing... and DC was going to save the industry. {nm} HurricaneKid Feb 07, 10:47

It'll be interesting to see what kind of legs it has, it has one of the weakest February - March slates ever to go up against notfabio Feb 07, 08:47

Ah very good. Spot on. BOP's appeal for me was always the lack of competition follwoing it. BUT, that's only if the film is good and non-PC {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 08:49

RT score of 88%. {nm} Antibody Feb 07, 08:51

That's positive, but I remind you the critics completely missed on "Joker" {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 08:52

Personally the ad campaign turned me off and I generally like these kind of movies? {nm} notfabio Feb 07, 08:50

The trailers are not as strong as Joker, will need huge WOM {nm} VictorY Feb 07, 08:51

I'm a DC fan, but not in a rush to see this one tbh. {nm} ~JPV~ Feb 07, 11:12

The marketing campaign for this was horrendous. WB/DC, would it have killed you to put out a Red Band trailer?!?!?! {nm} HurricaneKid Feb 07, 12:33
