There’s two ways of looking at the box office total for conspiracy loving Gina Carano’s most recent film, the Ben Shapiro-produced Terror on the Prairie (think: a grittier Yellowstone, but without the “woke” kisses). The charitable interpretation is that it only made $13,115 because it had an extremely limited theatrical reaction — we’re talking one, maybe two theaters — before being released on Daily Wire. The funnier interpretation is that it only made $13,115 because no one wants to see the fired The Mandalorian star in a low-budget Western — including some conservatives, via Indiewire:
Terror on the Prairie represented the right-wing media outlet’s most serious attempt at mainstream filmmaking to date, [but] it failed to resonate with its target audience. A new story in the AV Club revealed that there are still some fringe online personalities who thought the film was too “woke.” Many of them took to Twitter and IMDb comment sections to complain about the film’s male characters acting insufficiently masculine while allowing Carano’s heroine to save the day.

Reading some reviews for "Terror on the Prairie" and it's funny how so many of them say it's TOO woke, feminist, and offensive to conservative Christians. pic.twitter.com/3IIJhp1drg

the whole gina carano thing is SO funny. she came out spewing a bunch of republican bullshit, lost her STAR WARS role, went to make her OWN movie, and now that its out, no republican wants to watch it cause she, a woman, is the badass protagonist – so its "woke crap"
