Unfortunately the latest Marvel comic book movie has become another battleground for the feminist culture war, and the matriarchy has struck back by deleting bad reviews on “Rotten Tomatoes.”
Wow, what a stupid sentence our civilization finds itself in.
As it turns out though, it looks like many of the reviews was organized trolling, or at least that’s what Rotten Tomatoes says. They admit they deleted reviews, but they say it’s because they want trolls to stay off the site:
Within hours of Captain Marvel hitting theaters, roughly 58,000 audience reviews had flooded the critical aggregator site, plummeting the Marvel movie’s Audience Score down to 33%. Captain Marvel’s Audience Score now sits, at the time this article was published, at 53% with over 35,000 user ratings, while the film’s critical Tomatometer score is certified “fresh” at 79%.
58,000 audience reviews hitting within hours of the film’s release, as The Hollywood Reporter points out, “is more than the total of audience score reviews for Avengers: Infinity War for its entire theatrical run.”
According to Rotten Tomatoes, this inflated initial number was because thousands of those audience reviews were submitted by users before the movie even opened, a functionality the site recently retooled in order to prevent online trolls from “review-bombing” them with fake negative reviews.
It seems Rotten Tomatoes’ newly implemented system was immediately beset by technical difficulties.
I mean, if this guy is promoting it, it’s probably fake or exaggerated in some way:
Don’t forget, everything is stupid.
IN any case it sure riled up the feminazis:
I saw #CaptainMarvel and this is going to sound controversial but I just want to express my appreciation for something that really hit home for me. At NO POINT was she sexualized. I’m grateful Marvel got that part right even though it took long to get us a female-led film.

Pft. Sounds boring.
And on the other side:
Anyway, whatever side of the idiotic online culture war you’re on, Captain Marvel looks like it’s going to do really really well. It will have the seventh largest opening for a Marvel movie with $61.4 million, and looks to be heading towards more than $155 million for opening weekend.
