Recently, Disney Snow White<\/a> actress, Rachel Zegler proudly declared on Instagram that Snow White<\/a> was the “#1 movie in the world,” throwing in a cute little apple and snowflake emoji for good measure. But let\u2019s talk facts. Yes, the film technically held the top spot for a single weekend. However, that doesn\u2019t mean it was a success\u2014it just means every other movie playing was either old, under-marketed, or an indie flick that had no shot at competing in the first place. The movie clearly flopped. And not just in a ‘oh no, we slightly underperformed’ way. No, this was a full-scale Disney disaster.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the reality check: Snow White opened with a disastrous $43 million domestic debut, bringing its worldwide total to $87 million after opening weekend. That\u2019s an embarrassingly low number for a film that cost a whopping $270 million to make, and when you factor in marketing costs, experts estimate the break-even point is around $700 million. In other words, this thing is set to lose hundreds of millions of dollars\u200b.<\/p>\n

What does ‘#1 movie’ even mean when theatres are empty?<\/h2>\n
