Vogt-Roberts has no plans of working for Disney I guess

I think that guy is trying to take the max landis spot ever since landis was run off Twitter. Only hear about him when he's got some douche take.

[The Futurist]

The good ol' days when you could just  give 

 

your opinion on a movie.

 

The memories ....

[YLF]

lol @ people complaining that the reviews aren't negative enough. It'll never be enough. Its either their too afraid to give rotten reviews because of "SJW" reasons or not.

He is not wrong. He also screwed his next movie

All these “bend over backwards” baseless accusations, you would think the movie is doing amazing reviews-wise.

 

But turns out, it’s just another Twitter vacuum of shitty takes.

It'll probably drop below 40% up/down pretty soon (it's currently sitting at 42% with a 5.1/10 average).

 

But, hey, some folks like it despite what they see as flaws, so I guess film criticism is dead. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

 

...

 

Also some folks seem to genuinely like it and aren't subscribing to this 'mess but still interesting' fooferall, but sure, let's keep ignoring them as well. 

[Chewy]

It's interesting to me that ppl are generally cool with garbage film criticism that banally regurgitates plot without meaningfully engaging the material at all and only have a critic take when an RT score they don't like appears

I can remember when most critics bent forward to give an overpriced Z-movie such a positive spin.

Damn.

I truly hate the ascent of RT and all these review aggregating sites.

Miss the eighties, when people made up their minds and went to the movies based on what appealed to them, without the spectre of having the opinions of a bunch of strangres telling you what or what not to watch. SUre, we had newspaper and magazine reviews, but they never became this huge deal in regard to people being part of the "crowd" that pans or praises a movie.

And even worse, when people do enjoy a film that all these strangers told them not to watch, they (those who enjoyed them) are utterly convinced that they loved that film IN SPITE of being "bad", that it's a guilty pleasure and that every time they mention that they loved the film, they need to "apologize" for it.

(I am sure that I will get the a retort of something like "but movie going is too expensive; I NEED to make sure that I only go see good films" Ugh...

People supported a medicore/crap movie like BvS just because it was directed by a White Man.

Even when that movie turned out bad, he still got to direct Justice League.

WTF are you talking about? People liked BVS because Zack Snyder is white? 

 

[AniNate]

Everyone should know by now not to engage Mojoguy when he says something provocative.

[Brainbug]

This thread is a mess. And Twitter is even worse

 

I personally coudnt care less if the director/writer/whatever is a woman/man/penguin that has white/black/green skin color. If the movie is good, i like it. If the movie is bad, i dislike it.

Actually, Vogt-Roberts, I remember. When critic's precious darling Brad Bird dropped a turd Tomorrowland. There was some serious contorting into knots. But, of course, that memory doesn't support the agenda that's being pushed in that tweet does it?

I don't think people should be light on their criticism bc of who made a movie or who stars in it, but excuse me if I have to laugh at this man, who would probably physically fight everyone behind CinemaSins in a dive bar, who talked shit about your bland-ass monster movie.

[AniNate]

I'd hope someone involved in the film industry would be wise to how idiotic that kind of generalizing is.

 

I'd understand wanting to defend your own product, but you're basically committing career suicide when you throw out an unsolicited attack like that.

[AJG]

So why do white people want this to be the worst movie ever made?

'Cos in their mind, WW and BP only got good reviews because of political reasons, and not for actual quality of movie.
