Yeah, the film got no positive reception or publicity. Do you think that might have had something to do with the fact that its star couldn't do anything to promote it because they're a crazy cult person?

I really don't think the general population know much of anything about the actors in the movies they watch tbh. And they make up the bulk of the movie going audience. There were plenty of trailers before the movie came out, there was marketing, it just didn't wow people so it gained no hype or hate to make people interested.

Online people may have made decisions towards the movie because of Ezra Miller, but online viewers are a much smaller portion of overall audiences that they wouldn't have made enough of an impact. It wouldn't have helped mind you, but I don't think it was the sole cause of the movie doing badly.

But no one is saying that it was the sole cause of the movie bombing

People are saying that the fact that the movie's star couldn't do promo bc they had been involved in a weird cult scandal and there had been tons of late night talk show jokes about the whole thing might have played a role. And the response is "no way only online people care about that and anyway it's silly to expect actors to be morally perfect".

da

But the OP seems to want to think the key thing was people trying to express disapproval for the actor, and that seems very unlikely to me.

The OP is annoyed that articles aren't actively blaming Ezra Miller for it's poor performance, that implies OP thinks the actor's behaviour did have an effect and a major one at that. Which is what I'm disagreeing with as the primary factor, I do think it had a part in the online audience not bothering with the movie, but as I said: online audiences are a small percentage of the general audience, so it has an effect but not a major one.
