And that is how you know "movie critics" are not critics at all, but shills of tHe MeSsAgE.

The studios realized there was no point in taking a risk with critics, so they just started hiring the trash with personal blogs and no backbone.

Then they pay them specifically to either write positive reviews for their films or negative reviews for competitors films, if they don't follow the rules they just burn them and find a new one.

Turns out having a huge supply of retarded cunts willing to sell their own mothers out for a byline is beneficial.

No surprise. I’ve joked that I could make a short film showing a black man crossing the street and have some narration about systemic racism and win an award. Not sure that’s even a joke. Racism, girl power, or lgbt is all critics focus on

I mean… blacks completely ignore pedestrian laws even in the busiest streets in the biggest cities, so there’s actually something there lol

It would be fun to make such a film, get an award, and then rip them apart in my acceptance speech

Remember when they harassed the first dude to not give it a perfect score and it was a major news story? That's the answer to why its the highest.

Also Warmachine was literally the second introduced superhero in the MCU (if you don't count the Hulk movie) because he was literally in Iron Man 1 and was a major character ever since, actor change and all.

Pfft. I just watched a flick that kicks all these's asses.

Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978). Still almost as terrifying as it was when I first saw it when it came out, at the theatre.

Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978)

Was it the one set in a military base?

No, the quoted movie was set in San Francisco, starring Donald Sutherland, Jeff Goldblum, Leonard Nimoy and Brook Adams

So this is the "films we say are best to virtue signal as our actions make us more racist than the kkk" list?.

Rotten tomatoes is only good for viewer score anyway, I mean if I wanted to pick a best film, be a mix of Dr Strangelove, The Good the bad and the ugly, The death of Stalin, those kinds of films.

The death of Stalin

I love that movie. So funny!

Vasily Stalin: How old are you?

Young Doctor: I'm... old.

Vasily Stalin: You're not old!

Vasily Stalin: [to the tall doctor] You're not even a person! You're a testicle! You're made mostly of hair!

I think the guy that made it the most for me was Jason Issacs as Marshall Zhukov, having a thick Yorkshire accent actor play the decorated general was the icing on the cake!

You shouldn't be surprised. There was one critic who gave it 3 stars for basically being another Marvel movie, and he was publicly attacked.

If we're going by Rotten Tomatoes, there is no question, Black Panther is the single greatest film in all of Cinema history, literally forever.

It slowly got infested, and then NBC bought it, so now it's corporate, and infested.

It's a 75/25% ownership share between NBC Universal and Warner Brothers, afaik.

Rotten tomatoes changed the scores of black panther, female ghostbusters and captain marvel. Rotten tomatoes is obsolete.

If you want rankings, go check out torrent lists. You can make out demand by amount of peers.

Seething about rotten tomatoes is pointless.

You can actually see the movie critic rot setting in over time. Look at the original Predator. Virtually perfect movie has an 80% on RT, because the reviews come from a time where viewpoints were diverse and dissent was permitted. Now look at Prey, a completely mediocre sequel movie, 93% on RT because it ticks a bunch of leftist boxes.

The sad part is that this even isn't Chris Priest BP. It's Reggie Hudlin's BP.

Motherfucker used a good version of BP for a skinsuit to put around his lame ass BP script.

Even if we're just talking about black superhero movies, Panther doesn't hold a candle against Blade II.

It's not even remotely a good movie.

Somehow, they could mine this shit with only stones?

They stopped expanding at this arbitrary point even though they could have conquered the world?

They do trial by combat to determine who the leader is, despite being an 'advanced' civilization?

The leader (who's supposed to be smart and capable) just...accepts a challenge by a trained killer when he's only strong because of the flower power shit?

Badguymcangrypants survives a stab to the heart for like 15 minutes?

It's all "white people bad, black people good, except we're actually just savages with tech"?

I can keep going, but I'd be here all fucking week...

I feel like it's worse, personally. Captain Marvel is also pretty terrible.

Most of the marvel movies are bad these days and rely on "look at the thing! Consoooooom product and get excited for next product!" instead of anything approaching good story telling or plot.

Much like Disney's First Gay Character, they just reset it everytime there is a new one so they have dozens of firsts.

He's the first black superhero... in the MCU... of it's current iteration... who is a protagonist... and a title role.

Once you add on all those qualifiers, it's all mindless praise!
