Spider-Man’s Success in Theaters Sends an Important Message

CLAY: Can’t recommend highly enough, if you’re looking for a good family movie that American Underdog movie is fantastic. I took my 7-year-old, my 11-year-old, my 13-year-old, my wife also went. Spider-Man, by the way, is out. My kids have been to see Spider-Man too. And people going back to the movies is an important part of normalcy returning. And I don’t know how many of you paid attention to what the box office was, but Spider-Man did over $250 million in its opening weekend, which is the biggest amount of opening weekend gross that a movie has done since Avengers: Endgame, second biggest ever for that Spider-Man movie.

Why is that significant? Even with Omicron going on, millions of people were willing to go watch the new Spider-Man movie in theaters including in New York City and L.A. That is an important message that is being sent by the general public. Same general public’s big filling up football stadiums, same general public that’s been going to concerts. We’re not going to allow the fears of a few, the anxiety-ridden absurdities that many people are going through in order to try and basically show how much more they care about covid than you do. They’re gonna triple mask, they’re gonna wear the shields, they’re gonna basically be wearing hazmat suits out there in the larger universe. People are over it. Reasonable, rational people are going to live their lives. You can’t stay curled up in the fetal position forever.

And, at some point, you have to stand up and say your fears don’t cancel my freedoms. And I think that’s what happened, frankly, with the Spider-Man movie, with football games that are going on. And I hope, by the way, that the Supreme Court is going to be willing to stand up to the Biden vaccine mandates, Brett Kavanaugh has that on his desk right now and say, “This is an unconstitutional overreach. OSHA doesn’t have the ability to mandate this.” And if that occurs from the Supreme Court, particularly in conjunction with the Senate, remember, voted against Biden’s vaccine mandate as well, it will send an important message about getting back to normalcy that I believe many people out there are already embracing in their day-to-day life.
