In troubled times, we turn to the wise and sage advice of storytellers. Long ago, in times of war and famine, we looked to Aesop, or Socrates. Today, as The Marvels<\/strong><\/a> <\/em>does medium numbers at its box office opening, we ask the guy who wrote Christine <\/em>what\u2019s up.<\/p>\n

Yes, Stephen King<\/a><\/strong> has weighed in on the hubbub brewing around The Marvels, <\/em>the MCU\u2019s latest theatrical endeavor. The film, featuring a diverse cast of three female leads, is currently on track to mark the franchise\u2019s worst-ever box office performance<\/a>, with projections pointing to a $47 million opening weekend in the U.S.<\/p>\n

Surprising no one with an internet connection and a concept of gender, the disappointing state of The Marvels\u2019 <\/em>ticket sales has become a point of delight for a loud, misogynistic corner of social media. There\u2019s a big enough ruckus that Stephen King, who professes to not even liking Marvel movies, has felt the need to step in and say something.<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t go to MCU movies, don\u2019t care for them, but I find this barely masked gloating over the low box office for THE MARVELS very unpleasant. Why gloat over failure?<\/p>\n
