Didn't WB buy the company that used to own RT and then like a couple of years ago sold it to Fandago?

From the wiki
Quote:
Since January 2010, Rotten Tomatoes has been owned by Flixster, which was in turn acquired by Warner Bros. in 2011. In February 2016, Rotten Tomatoes and its parent site Flixster were sold to Comcast's Fandango. Warner Bros. retained a minority stake in the merged entities, including Fandango

So I guess that's where people have from that RT is owned by WB

Honestly, I can't think of any good way to prove that someone has seen a movie.

Right? It's just pretense so that they can zap away reviews they "think" are fake with no accountability.

Girlfriend and I saw it last night.

Fun sci-fi comic book movie, but needed about 99.9% more Goose the Cat.

Okay, what is wrong with you guys?

Captain Marvel is an amazing film with a very strong, very capable, and very likable female protagonist.

What's the beef?

A flimsy script for starters.

It's an average Marvel film at best, nothing really amazing.

It is a bellow average marvel movie, with a flimsy script, tries to rewrite the MCU, has one of the biggest Mary Sues I have seen for a while that has no personality at all. Why in the world did they not start with an already established female character as a solo outing instead of one of the most unpopular Marvel characters is beyond me.

Save your 6 bucks because this thing sucked horribly! I have now fallen asleep for the third time in my life in a movie theater. I missed the last 20 minutes of the movie. I was told by my wife that that part sucked too!. I will say what I saw of it even though terrible, the fem talk has been a bit overstated. The film certainly could have pushed the feminist agenda even more. Don’t get me wrong it was still present but the over the top woman loving levels it has been brought up to is just SJW’w online convincing themselves this movie is world changing for women! It’s just a bad comic book movie and nothing more!

I have seen all the Phase 3 movies so might as well see this one. I like Nick Fury and I hear the cat is cool

Fair enough. I went for the same reason and I gotta say that Endgame might be it for me! I thought Black Panther was soooo boooring and Antman and Wasp was kind of boring and then Infinity War redeemed it all for me and then Captain Marvel came along and dropped the MCU back into the toilet!

Well....2 out of 3 ain't bad...


I mean to say, she was far from likeable. It was an ok movie, but Carol was not likable at all.

Flimsy script rewriting the MCU? I think some of you guys weren't paying enough attention. MOST of the supposed "rewrite" material actually goes back to Captain America First Avenger, or to Avengers 1. In case anyone missed it, Project Pegasus was in the same facility Loki invaded in the Avenhers, and Howard Stark apparently knew Lawson, since she had an arc reactor on her ship and was allowed to use the Tesseract after Stark found it. Seriously, it all makes sense if you just dig a little into the background. The only question is really how/when she took it up to her ship, and if anyone knew about it....
