Misogyny among the nerd class appears to be rampant. It's understandable, I suppose. Goofy dudes who have been rejected by girls all their lives can't be expected to appreciate, admire and respect women.
What I don't get is the idea that you can "rate" or "review" a movie that you've never seen. That is bizarre and transparently stupid. Personally, I look at it like this; Marvel deserves the benefit of the doubt. They aren't perfect and have whiffed on a couple, but for the most part, they have elevated the genre and created something historic in film. I wish we could start all over with Iron Man 1 and RDJ, but we can't. From this point forward, it's about something new and I'm all in. Marvel is a guaranteed presale ticket (or 3) from me. I never thought I'd see anything like this in my lifetime. When I sit back and think about it, I realize that I'm grateful. FAX |

LOL... Rotten Tomatoes has now disabled user reviews for all new releases, because of the negativity toward Captain Marvel.

I'm not sure what you mean. Your quote confirms the removal. They removed comments as well as the "Want to see" percentage.

What they did was stupid.

They removed the "want to see" and the comments. It's stupidity on their part, but not the first time they have done things to block negative or potentially negative input about major releases. Last edited by Just Passin' By; 02-26-2019 at 04:17 PM.. |

A lot of movie-goers use the "want to see" rating as an early indicator of a movie's potential. I don't think that's an arguable point. In other news, the movie has been review-bombed on Google and a variety of other social media platforms. Reviewed before seeing the movie? That is absurd no matter what the movie is or might be. Common sense will tell you that a Marvel movie (especially one that has a direct impact on the next Avengers film) isn't very likely to have a "want to see" rating well below 50%. None of them ever have, so why this one? 2 + 2, my friend. Review bombed all over the interweb and a "want to see" rating dramatically below reasonable expectations. It makes perfect sense for the Rottens to pull the plug on activity until the bizarre bombers find something else to bitch about. FAX |

It's clear what behavior they're trying to block. The sample is flawed. It would be like measuring the success of an Elway documentary because you aired it in Kansas city. You know trolls would rush out in droves to down vote it without knowing anything about the movie. Which would be funny for us. But if you're a casual eagles fan wanting to hear from sports fans about whether it's worth watching, it's totally unhelpful. I mean... I think this movie looks boring. But I want to hear legitimately without the politics on either side if it's actually worth my time. |

I'm not iffy on the movie because of her comments in the media or the fact that she's a female superhero. I'm iffy on the movie because every trailer I've seen so far has been the definition of meh. I don't even think that Samuel L Jackson looks good in these trailers. It's just weird.
I'll probably see it because my oldest twin daughter wants to see it but it might just wait until I can rent it. |
