Civil War Civil War Rotten Tomatoes Thread - Part 2

LMAO, is that review serious or satire?

It is Armond White. He's one of the most infamous trolls out there.

Some reviews are funny. I like the ones that insult the movie.

Trolls tend to do that.

Poe's law holds for movie reviews as well it seems. Many of the honest defenses of BvS are so aggrandized that there is honestly no way to parody them without being perceived as serious. All the significantly bad reviews of Civil War I've seen so far have been from people who strongly feel the need to compare it unfavourably to BvS.

Personally, "genuine" is the last adjective I'd ever use to describe Zack Snyder. All style, no substance.

Keep in mind that this is the same guy who said that Paul WS Anderson is better than Martin Scorcese, says that Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is better than Raiders of the Lost Ark, and hated films like The Dark Knight and Iron Man while loving Fantastic Four and Jonah Hex.

 

[Kobra]

Trolls tend to do that.

That's actually quite common in negative reviews in general. When they don't like the movie they insult it.

OT: Can you make the "TDKR vs CW" poll public?

 

[Erzengel]

Uh, I don't think he was referring to the reviewers.

 

[BoredGuy]

ahhh that's funny....


....
gotta say, I'm quite surprised and unhappy that this finished with a lower score than f***ing. Barbershop. 3.

goddamn Ice Cube!

264-31. Back down to 89%, tied with Winter Soldier.

Wtf? I did not see it falling into the 80's. Wtf? Biggest RT drop I've seen in a while. I thought it'd settle in the low 90's.

 

[StormC]

Maybe it'll bounce back to 90. Cap 1 finally got to 80 after years.

It's too bad, but what can you do? Before the early Twitter hype I would have been happy with 85 or above. Guess we're just spoiled.

It only needs 1 more Fresh review to get back up to 90%.

I no longer care about the RT score for CW at this point. It's certified fresh and doesn't need any more positive reviews to stay that way. Those attention seeking critics with agendas can go to hell.

It only needs 1 positive to get back to 90%.

Stuckmann and guys like Harloff and Ellis (Schmoes) are the modern era's Siskel and Ebert. Trusted guys that people turn to and value their opinion. The big difference is that they are more grounded and down to earth than the old school "journalistic" critics. The newspaper type critics have grown completely useless in the 21st century.

The same Stuckmann who ranked The Nolan Batman trilogy as the top 3 films of the CBM genre?

The Same Schmoes who ranked No Nolan Batman film less than 4 out of 5, with Ellis calling Batman Begins the best Comic book film of all time?

For someone who spends so much time claiming that the TDK trilogy being the best films of the genre is not a majority consensus, you sure spend a lot of time singing the praises of critics who feel the precise opposite.

He's entitled to his opinion just like you are entitled to yours

 

[LucDisfilm19]

Back up to 90%. 265-31.

 

[Iceman]

Time to call it a day reviewers now lol.

 

[Raiden]

Hopefully 90% is here to stay.

 

[LucDisfilm19]

266-31

 

[JOE]

It's going to get another rotten or two, enjoy 90% while it lasts. Maybe a week from now, possibly two. One more rotten WILL come, I just have a terrible feeling.

Ah, don't sweat it. It already has more votes thanTWS and it's neck and neck in all categories, with a significantly higher Met acritic score. Even the audience score is nearly identical. If you consider TWS to be the pinnacle of the MCU, then CW must be considered to be one of the best SH movies ever. And one of the most successful sequels all time.
