Sound of Freedom beat Indiana Jones on July 4th

How embarrassing for Disney.

Playing in about HALF the theaters that Indy was playing in (of course)...this means it absolutely TROUNCED on Disney's supposed much-anticipated sequel, starring Harrison Ford in his iconic role.

Here are the numbers...the backlash is here...lulz

And of course the mainstream media is attacking it as a QAnon movie even though it is based on a true story and development on the script occurred before QAnon even existed. The movie had a bunch of roadblocks put in front of it trying to stop it from actually being released. The Pedowood crowd and their defenders and partners in the media don’t seem to be too happy about its success.

It was a good movie. Very suspenseful
and not political at all.

I liked it and give it a thumbs up.
It's worth seeing.

You should read the review on Rolling Stone...which goes to classhandicapper's point:

Here's the headline:

I haven't seen the movie yet but the way some media outlets are attacking the movie is a sad sign of the times. This is unprecedented, especially when you consider that there have been other movies about abduction, like Taken, that were not criticized. The Rolling Stone article is ridiculous and was widely criticized on Twitter.

When someone is attacking a movie that's a true story about child trafficking, they are telling you everything you need to know about their friends and values. We are surrounded by evil and it's time we stopped pulling punches and called them what they are.

Exactly. One of the benefits to the left of an "open border" where tons of unaccompanied minors flow through and into the hands of evil.

And we're all just sitting on our asses letting it happen.

Voting doesn't matter. 2020 proved that quite clearly.

Yup, there was was time when the kids had to be picked up by their "sponsors"; but president Sniffer has made it even easier for perverts by sending the kids to them at taxpayers' expense -- to virtually to strangers to the government. What more could pedo rings ask for?

Indy opened five days earlier. Its opening day box office was $24,000,000.$10,000,000 more than Sound of Freedom on its holiday opening day. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny may not compare to other Indiana Jones epics, but I the end, it will outperform Sound of Freedom 10 to 1.

There’s a reason IJ opened in twice as many theaters. They anticipate twice as many people will be watching.

Never in a million years would you ever predict SOF, a film the media was NOT talking about...never ran TONS of commercials...never had a million sequels before it...and didn't have the backing of Disney...would EVER beat Indy on July 4th....never...AND ESPECIALLY never beat it while appearing in roughly HALF the number of theaters nationwide.

But here you are with an absolutely PATHETIC redboard...LMAO

The backlash is here...

Most legitimate agencies in the field have never heard of OUR. OUR received Tens of Millions in donations, but no one knows how they are spent. Most of Ballard’s claims have been shown to be false, exaggerated or unproven.


All this anti pedophile hysteria has little to do with protecting children and a lot to do with slandering innocent people.

There were a ton of commercials on Chicago TV. None of which really said what the movie was about. I wonder how many went to see it thinking it was about something else l

To reiterate. The problem is real. Many children are victims. Sound of Freedom is not the solution. Operation Underground Railroad is a parasite.
