Why did it bomb?

niggers

>>87021907
not enough promotion i guess.
after possibly oscar nominations and maybe wins its gonna be re-release with buzz.
So, box office is not this movie's first concern

Really poorly advertised. Detroit as a name doesn't give me much, and I think they overestimated the audiences knowledge of the event it depicts.

These "based on a true story" movies only really hit if they appeal to dads (Spielberg and Eastwood's dramas, Dunkirk) or to people who want an uplifting story (Hidden Figures and every black biopic of the last 2-4 years, British period films). Not a brutal story like this

I imagine because it was nothing but cultural marxist propaganda designed to make it look like the reason Detroit went from being "the paris of the west" to a third world shit hole wasn't because the democrats imported sub 70 IQ niggers to vote for them causing white flight making it an extension of Africa.

>>87022453
do you get posts like this ready to go and just wait for a thread

the thought of you banging this out on your keyboard and then scrolling through your 6 gigabyte pol propaganda folder is fucking hilarious to me

>>87022453
Couldn't possibly have been that the entire city's economy was tied to one or two industries that started to decline 50 years ago and have since collapsed, a pattern shown across the entire midwest to the point that the region has a nickname based on it's permanent economic depression, right?

Solid kek

i was born decades after that pic so why am i feeling nostalgic looking at that pic? or is nostalgic the correct word? looking at that pic i get this intense urge to go visit it walk around eat shop and look around. maybe not nostalgia just a tourist need to visit?

am i the only one who feels this?

It's a beautiful city. Just keep your head on and remember that every city had it's slums, worse then than now probably.

I'm from Detroit and you're a dumbass.
It used to be a solid place in the early 1900's u dumb brainwashed cuck

>>87023160

yeah, i guess that's the reason. i wish there's an online site that gives you 3d view of that pic and let's you walk around. i would buy 3d glasses for that.

>>87022563
He must have really triggered you. Either way he was right. Detroit went to shit because of the auto indsutry but also mostly because of nigger chimpouts.

I can just watch that on the news.

Because nobody wants to go to Detroit.

>>87022573
>he's specifically talking about detroit therefore similar things couldn't have happened at other places
>detroit isn't shittier than the rest of the rust belt

Never heard of it

It was literally marketed as anti-white AND anti-police.

>>87021907

The only people who would be interested in it's message were spending their summer taking part in Antifa cash-for-riots?

>>87021907
Despite all the pandering that movies do for minorities, white people are the only ones who actually see movies in theaters.

>>87021907
It's an Oscarbait, so it's not necessary that someone actually watches it.

>>87024984
Oscarbait I agreeit's subject matter guarantees it a nomination for best picture at least?

You weren't even alive back then you trumptard, Detroit's population exploded with the auto industry which is responsible for it's former prosperity and it's current shit hole, why don't you take some college courses instead of watching your internet lectiures

You're right, which of course explains why the surrounding suburbs collapsed into 3rd world anarchy just like the city of Detroit.

Except they didn't and we're still making cars.

Want to guess again?

Some cars are simply assembled in the united states and the factories of detroit employ only a small fraction of what they did before all manufacturing was shipped overseas.

>>87025996
But anon, the "we" maymay has no place here.
The rioters were black so there's no blackwashing.

we made sure that word spread to other police unions as it did ours. and the wives did their part at sunday church and little league games.
this movie was nothing but a hit job against law enforcement.

My started working at GM’s Tech Center in 1966 and at that time, there wasn’t a single Black guy on the entire 710 acre facility, even the janitors were White.

Nowadays if you take a walk thru say, Chrysler’s Dodge City truck plant just down the street, at least half the highly paid unionized employees are Black.

We never stopped making cars here in Detroit and we still make them, the only change was in the demographics of the city, which is now 80% Black.

You're conflating manufacture and assemble. NOTHING is manufactured in the US. The parts are manufactured elsewhere and shipped to the US for assembly.

Yeah, it's 4 miles north of 8 Mile Rd and Chrysler's truck plant is right on 8 Mile Rd and GM's Hydramatic plant is right next to it, what's your point?

>>87021907
black people don't go to the movies

>>87021907

Is there a place on Earth with a majority black population thats not a shit hole?

TAKE HIS COCK OUT OF YOUR MOUTH AND ASSHOLE YOU FUCKING SJW KEK FAGGOT!!! NIGGER IS FAMOUS FOR BEING IN A STAR WARS MOVIE AND ISN'T ANY MORE A STAR THAN SHITTY LABEEF WAS BECAUSE HE WAS IN TRANSFORMERS AND INDIANA JONES 4!!!

It looked kind of gross frankly. And it was pretty obviously anti-police from the trailers, which is a really hot topic right now.

Also,
>expecting extreme leftist audiences to actually go see your movie, given that it ISN'T some shitty comic book movie or nu-star wars
They marketed to the wrong people.

>>87026297
jesus christ are you literally trying to argue that the manufacturing collapse in the rust belt never happened? holy shit you people are deranged. sure detroid may be worse off because of niggers but the whole place has been a disaster for decades

>>87031346
your post is confusing 2bh

>>87021907
Because no one actually cares about nigger shit outside of half ironically listening to their monkey beats or pandering to them to keep them from throwing a shitfit from not being represented in fucking EVERYTHING despite being a massive minority population in America. Other than for the purpose of virtue signaling who in their fucking right mind would go see this trash?

>>87031346
yeah dude totally waste your time trying to gain a nuanced view of hollywood brainwashing

>>87031345
>>87031308
lol. Imagine being this deluded. Yeah literally every black country sucks because of blah blah sociology. my professor told me so!

Detroit is an awful name for a movie. That name just invokes negative emotions

There were a million commercials for Detroit on the crime channels Investigation Discovery and the Oprah channel that only shows 20/20.

Looked like evil white cops torturing POC (not cool). Local critic described movie as "important". That's damning with faint praise when it comes to movies like The Butler, The Help and other black empowerment type films

>>87021907

The movie was an attempt to "rehabilitate" the riots into an "uprising". There was a push to try and make it sound as if the Blacks were fighting some kind of injustice conspiracy theory rather than the chimp out which was in the history books. Essentially clearing the actions of the rioters/looters from any moral wrongdoing.

People saw right through it and the movie bombed.

>>87022977
>i was born decades after that pic so why am i feeling nostalgic looking at that pic? or is nostalgic the correct word?

"Sehnsucht" is what you're looking for.

"Saudade" is similar, but if you want something English just use "Old world blues".

>>87031085

Wakanda

who wants to be reminded on an entire city in america completely failing? especially when the trailers make it seem utterly vague and retarded, loud annoying black teenagers partying with white girls, and nothing interesting. only black people and some hardcore white cuckolds would pay to watch this.

>>87025618
>take some college courses
At this point this phrase might as well be "Indoctrinate yourself to think like me," given how shitty "college courses," devoted to the topic of race or economic inequality generally are.

>>87029152

If they don't shill it on 4chan, I don't hear about it.
