10 Actors Who BLAMED Fans For Films Failing

10. Mindy Kaling - Ocean's 8

A spin-off from the established "Ocean's" franchise, 2018's Ocean's 8 cast an all female lead to tell an original story revolving around the titular character of Debbie Ocean (Sandra Bullock).

Debuting at number one in its opening weekend, reviews and word of mouth spoke of a solid, charming film, but one which ultimately fell short of its goals and failed to match the heights of its parent franchise.

In what will sadly become something of a recurring theme here, actress Mindy Kaling decided to focus her frustrations about the underperformance of Ocean's 8 not on "Fans" in general, rather on a more specific social group: white men.

Taking aim not only at the ticket buying public but also movie reviewers, Kaling claimed that people's opinions of the movie were skewed by "men who don’t necessarily value it or don’t look at it in the same point of view as a woman doing it, (which) seems just unfair.”

Going further, Kaling also stated that if she "had to base my career on what white men wanted I would be very unsuccessful", adding her belief that white male audiences will "damn" her work "because they don’t understand it".

Wow... Can anyone else smell those sour, sour grapes..?
