The movie is not going to suffer because of this. Rotten Tomatoes isn't really relevant any more. Most of that stuff come from people who are members in that site. and not the average moviegoer. I doubt they go to Rotten Tomatoes for anything.

Some people are overeacting over comments from Brie Larson. Which are completely taken out of context.

This is over supposed comments that she said. That she hates white males. Which isn't true. People see that. and then lose there **** over comments taken out of context.
They aren’t review bombing they are posting their interest or lack thereof for a movie. They are removing the Want to See score and that has to do with those saying if they want to see it or not. So stop lying and trying to make it out like these people are posting a review for a movie that isn’t out yet. People have a right to say if they want to see a movie or not. Just because it doesn’t go with your agenda doesn’t give you the right to put them down and try to silence them or make them look insignificant.

Those people are losing their **** over comments taken out of context. Do your research before jumping into conclusions. 😉

imagine if someone said a movie wasn't made for a black man.

can you imagine how many people would rightly loose their crap then?

it's just appropriate to trash white males these days and that is what everyone of all races and genders are tired of.

So the "Want to See" score on Rottentomatoes got in the way of social justice? Is that what I'm hearing?

I did do my research, and again there are no "reviews" being posted, merely people selecting whether or not they intend to see the movie.

Possibly? They are trying to hype up that this is a superhero movie with a female lead as some kind of monumental achievement.
Spoiler:
Even though Wonder Woman only came out two years ago, was a massive hit at the box office, featured an historically more popular/relevant character than Carol Danvers and it's not hard to point to earlier action movies starring women. Plus the fact that this movie only exist because Marvel has literally been pushing Mar-Vell and his derivates for over half a century, just to make sure they can keep a damn trademark. Because the comics starring Carol Danvers as Captain Marvel are not popular, like at all, they get cancelled after less than a year and are only getting shorter. Using her, especially this version of her, for a movie would otherwise be seen as a bad idea. But let's just pretend Captain Marvel is somehow unique enough to be considered important for social justice.

Though the official reason is that they think the poll is confusing.

Apparently this is not allowed anymore because Disney didn't like the way it was looking for Captain Marvel?

This seems like when Sony got IMDB to shut all of their message boards down because people were hating on the all-female Ghostbusters remake. We can't have... y'know... discussion about a thing, unless it suits the agenda.

It doesn't matter.

Captain Marvel will still make over a billion in revenue. It will still be held up as a groundbreaking work for critics. I guarantee that it will even be considered for prestigious awards.

So, stop making this the next BvS.

The movie will by no means bomb. Though, there's a real chance it might get off to a slower start than expected. I suspect a lot of people taking a pass at this movie will begin hearing that it's required viewing for Infinity War part 2 and inevitably throw in the towel and just go see it.

There's more to it then that. There are a group of people who took offense to comments Brie Larson made completely out of context. So they are intentionally lowering the Want To See It Score.

Rotten Tomatoes have dealt with these kinds of people before when Black Panther came out. And it did not affect its performance at the box office. So I applaud Rotten Tomatoes for finally dealing with these issues.

Its so crazy that. Somebody created a site just to vote Not Interested or Want To See it for Captain Marvel.

I don't see how anything she said could be taken out of context. She's just ignorant.

Lucky for her, she's pretty hot, so we forgive that kinda thing.

Its going to die down once the movie comes out next weekend. And it will make billions at the box office. But be weary though. They might intentionally try to spoil the movie for everyone. So you may have to avoid the social media when you go see it.

Ah, I see. An adaptation of Avengers #200 with Thanos replacing Marcus. A bold move indeed...

I mean it sounds like it would be even more horrible than the comic and if expressed disinterest can cause hyperbolic accusations of misogyny, then such a thing would be like nuking the internet. But that actually would be something unique and worth talking about.

So lowing the Want To See It Score did not affect Black Panther performance, yet this is somehow a issue that has to be dealt with?
