[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Speak for yourself . Reese hasnt a bit movie in forever ,she survives because unlike huffmann she seem to have somewhat of a solid fan base in the south. Huffmann rings no bell amongst critical demogrpahics like African Americans and Latinos who are expected to be the driver of population growth tomorrow.Yeah picture a 30 something AA woman eagerly wanting to see huffmann, she was a virtue signaling liberal , therefore a no-go for the Dixie crowd. Stick a fork in it.[/quote]

IMDB disagrees with you.

She did "Sing" in 2016.  "Home Again" in 2017.  "A Wrinkle in Time" in 2018.  All of which made money (and Sing made a ton of money).  She's currently filming "Sing 2" (2021) and in pre-production for "Legally Blonde 3" (2020).  Her star may have dimmed briefly, but she's not black-listed and is still working quite a lot and in some big box office draws.[/quote]

Agreed.

And not sure why someone thinks the AA demographics is going to be the driver of tomorrow's population growth either. It's pretty constant as a share of US population since the 1970s. IT's the Latino population that has grown. [/quote]

And how many Latinos give a rat's ass ? How many of those movies were blockbusters ??? Keep talking [/quote]'

Depends on how you define blockbuster.  Sing is probably the only one that is, as it grossed $635M on a budget of $75M.

Home Again wasn't a blockbuster, but it made a good profit ($37M gross on a budget of $12M).  A Wrinkle in Time was a bit of a cult classic, because of the genre, but it still made $136M, albeit on a budget of $100K.

Sing 2 and Legally Blonde 3 are sequels to big profit margin franchises.  They are likely to make a lot of money.  Legally Blonde made $141M on an $18M budget and still made $125M on a budget of $45M, good numbers for a sequel.  Both of these sequels should make a lot of money and Sing 2 will probably be another blockbuster.

B[b]ut the point is that people are still paying a lot of money to see her [/b]and her popularity is such that she is still an A-lister star.  She has an Oscar and she is one of the highest paid actresses in Hollywood.  She has taken any hit from the incident mentioned above.[/quote]

IDK how this conversation got so Reese focused but that's a flat-out lie.

Sing was an animated special with an all-star cast. Reese was hardly a draw, I can't even remember which animal she was. Did she sing at least?

Legally Blonde 3 hasn't released yet.

Wrinkle in Time was a flop - especially with the supposed caliber of women leading the production which is why there's no sequel.

Reese is a public drunk and an embarrassment.

You say people aren't paying lots of money, but the numbers say otherwise.  She was the 5th highest paid actress for 2018 at $16.5M.  In 2019-2020 she will likely move up the list as based on current projects alone she is estimated to earn about $30M.  In 2018, Scarlett Johansson was the only actress paid over $30M.  Angelina Jolie at #2 earned $28M.

So, embarassing or not, she's still earning a ton of money.  Whether she was a draw or not, she was paid like she was a draw.  And in Sing, she was the singing pig (the mother pig).  She sang several songs as that character.  And she sang in the role in which she won the Oscar, June Carter Cash in Walk the Line.
