Evil men are the reason Elizabeth Banks’ crappy Charlie’s Angels reboot with crappy actresses and a crapy storyline flopped. It’s totally that evil men can’t deal with powerful women and has nothing to do with the fact that nobody asked for another Charlie’s Angels reboot. Drew Barrymore did a pretty fantastic job of recreating the popular series just 20 years ago … and I get it, Banks wanted to do the girl power thing but eh.
Focus on ‘Pitch Perfect’ movies, Liz.
Director Elizabeth Banks defends reboots & blames men for #CharliesAngels flopping with $8.6M domestically on a $50M~ budget
• 'You've had 37 Spider-Man movies'
• 'It reinforces a stereotype in Hollywood that men don’t go see women do action movies'

Yes, blame men, that’s such a winning strategy. Will totally convince people to go see your movie.
Oh, wait.

Yes, the patriarchy explains why Charlie's Angels, the TV show, was such a flop, too. https://t.co/DtZ6izpPn9

Men just couldn’t deal with Farrah Fawcett kicking a*s and taking names back in the 70s.
The one they made 16 years ago made $260 million. The sequel to it made $260 million.
So, maybe it’s not the audience’s fault that this one flopped. https://t.co/oH874T87EQ

Maybe the movie just sucked.
Just like that song she wrote for Hillary Clinton … you guys remember THAT?
I never watched Charlie's Angels in the 70s. I hate reboots. Soooo…why would I spend money to go see it at the box office? This isn't a gender issue. This is wanting to see something fresh and a good story.

Elizabeth Banks didn't learn from the all female Ghostbusters?! It's not that people don't like strong women, we just don't need this #socialjustice nonsense in our entertainment.

Making a movie that happens to have strong women in it is very different from making a movie to prove women are strong. Banks doesn’t seem to understand the difference.
Maybe it simply sucked. Does anyone ever think of that or is it always someone else's fault?
Maybe if Hollywood put out original stuff instead of rebooting the same old crap, they'd get people into theaters for more than the Avengers, etc.— karenWV (@kelsieA67) November 18, 2019
Well, when you market a movie as anti-men, it's what you get.
Make better movies.

Make better movies.
Now there’s a crazy idea.
