More than rumors. Theater managers have spoken up about how the showings are sold out, but when they look in on the seats during the show, there's 20-30 spots open. They state this is NOT a normal thing, people usually show up for seats they pay for.
This was during opening weekend though.
so about $160-ish, on the lower end, for even just one theater. how many owners reported that? is it more than one area or even more than one state?
Yes, Disney went to considerable effort for a 160 dollars.
i don't know that they went to any effort, for this result. i just wanted more info. your mind is already made up.
if it's really happening, that's fraud.i suspect a lot of powerful people take that very seriously. so it's a big risk on disney to do that at any meaningful scale. the cost for a few guys on twitter and youtube to float the story. nada. they can just say that's what they heard and it ends there.

This is what mainstream leftists do, man. I am in the know with this shit. It's crazy. Didn't think box offices would be manipulated, though. This all stems from Brie Larson bringing identity politics into movie proportion.

i know why people are claiming that the boxoffice has to be bought off. some people aren't happy with brie larson, so they don't want the film to do well. it's not enough that they don't like it or don't want to see it, everyone else has to too, or else disney is manipulating it. that is some serious ego.

It's beyond just claims, though.
