These fascist corporations can cut off the public from voicing an opinion, but they can’t make the public buy something they don’t want. And they don’t want the SJW propaganda shoved in their face.

Make a good movie and people will come. Make dreck like the Ghostbusters remake and the corporate bottom line suffers. The question is, are companies really willing to go broke being woke.

Black Panther proved they can make a ton of money and still be ignored. Nobody who has ever seen a movie in their life thought it actually deserved a Best Picture nomination. That didn’t mean they couldn’t ignore the SJWs and enjoy it like any other decent superhero movie.

Really hard to comment on a movie before its release

Uh...the whole point of Rotten Tomatos is to REVIEW THE MOVIE. If you want to comment about Hollywood, get your own blog. Commenting about a movie you haven’t seen yet is called lying, something we’re supposed to be against.

They’re voicing an opinion of something they haven’t seen. The movie’s not been released.

Yes, they are willing to wreck their brands just to be woke. Tech companies like Twitter and Reddit hate their clients, the old adage of the customer always being right is so long gone now.

FWIW, I always look at both audience and movie reviewer reviews. Usually the audience score is a better guide whether a movie is worth seeing. Chalk it up to reviewer snootiness that promotes anything deranged and hate anything down to earth.
