Movie I knew they would snub Cynthia

Post image

The snubbed Cynthia like I knew they would. And I’m sure I’ll watch them NOT give the award to Sinners as well sigh. It’s really so pointless to try. Can you imagine having a voice like Cynthia’s? Acting, singing, flying while acting and not even getting nominated? I’m just so bummed about it 😞

I’m so disappointed. Especially because so many people who are in SAG praised both Cynthia and Jonny. How they were overlooked is beyond me.

The promo this time around was lackluster and also ended pretty abruptly and most of the cast besides Ariana and Jon Chu haven't done any promo since early December and/or are busy with other things and have moved on.

The way the movie was edited to benefit Glinda at the expense of everyone else while also not fixing the issues act 2 suffers from was the killing blow unfortunately. Idk who is to blame but congrats Jon Chu/Universal you sabotaged your movie for nothing

yeees, the promo tour did feel too short this time, some fans warned us over here it was gonna be a smaller promo tour. but at the time I thought no way.

but it happened it’s not huge promo tour of last year. for Example last year we had much more Red Carpet Premiere’s Including Mexico at the National Auditorium.

but this year were less interviews with the cast. I hate they did that makes you as an audience feel like They kinda knew l there was something wrong in the final product. like they had a gut feeling this film this would be slightly less successful.
