The Little Mermaid Crosses $100 Million



Halle Bailey's The Little Mermaid hauls in $117,500,000 over the Memorial Day weekend...

From CNN
Disney’s live-action movie “The Little Mermaid” brought in $117.5 million at the US box office in the fifth-best opening for Memorial Day weekend in history, according to Box Office Mojo.
The remake of the 1989 Disney animated classic stars Halle Bailey as Ariel. Bailey’s adaptation of the titular character was widely praised by critics, although the movie as a whole got a decidedly mixed reaction. On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, just 67% of critics gave the movie a favorable review.
Audiences were far more pleased with the film, with 95% giving it a thumbs up on Rotten Tomatoes. But IMDB, which also tracks audience reviews, said it had to adjust some of its ratings overseas after it found the movie was a victim of review-bombing.

Yt folks big mad about this. They've been bombing the film on social media platforms. A yt actress tweeted that she didn't like the film because of the message it sends to her daughters; meanwhile, the bih has a 10yr tweet saying how she wanted to be like Ariel lol smh. The plot of the animated version in 1989 is the same as the 2023 version with one small difference - I wonder what it could be 🤨- I think blk ppl, of all ages should go and support it, just to send a message to racists everywhere.
