There are other metrics than just Rotten Tomatoes, though, that might give a fuller view of the reaction. I posted it in another comment, but:

With review bombing being a thing, audience scores are less than worthless. Like...

I keep trying to dismiss this show as harmful popular nonsense that just isn’t meant for me, but they just keep giving awful garbage people time in the spotlight. This and Dancing with the Stars seem to exist partly to promote/publicly rehabilitate scumbags and I can’t abide it.

Given how readily Star Wars writers and/or directors have been fired before and after TLJ, the fact that he still hasn’t is a pretty good sign. Supposedly he’s just doing other projects first, which is probably chill with Disney seeing as he’s not the only one.

Yeah. I mean, I think WB is recognizing that maybe the notion of a tightly shared universe isn’t the only way to go with their franchises, and they seem to be doing a good job of making diverse, fun movies that take advantage of the characters and settings. Not all of their output in the past few years has been for…

I feel like Aquaman is going to end up a cult classic. It’s got that Face / Off zany-fun gene.

Yeah, you look at Ayer’s filmography, there’s some really good stuff there, but none of it is even in the same zip code as “fun”.
Which, I suppose, made sense in the “superhero movies should be dark, miserable, serious slogs full of angst and NO SMILING,” Snyder-verse, but just doesn’t work for an idea as inherently…

I thought the last Suicide Squad trailer looked fun. We all know how that turned out to be.

I don’t know, since I’ll be fully vaccinated by then, I think I might go see this in theaters. Depends on how the numbers look come July, I suppose.

I imagine they’re looking at the streaming numbers for WandaVision and Falcon and the Winter Soldier and deciding that yes, people will fork over $30 to watch an actual, factual Marvel movie on TV.

Don’t get me wrong, I’d love to see it, but it was announced two years ago and we haven’t had any actual news on it since. They’ve talked about it plenty, but it’s always the same “we’re crafting the script and super excited” lines. The have a director and writers, but we’ve heard nothing on what it’s actually…

Definitely, it will take a brand new game to not make CP feel like an Ubisoft open-world game. This could have totally been “Far Cry: Night City” and people would be like “it’s an okay Far Cry game, but the stealth mechanics are pretty weak and the quickhacks aren’t that interesting.” The fact that it’s a CDPR game…

Hot take, Luke! But I agree. When we’d Star Wars marathon in college, we’d shove in Clone Wars right between Eps II and III. Especially because Clone Wars ends right where Revenge of the Sith picks up.

HELL YES. FUCK YES.

I actually didn't realize anyone was hoping for an Attack the Block 2. I loved the movie, but it seems like it said what it wanted to say and did what it wanted to do and wrapped things up pretty nicely. Not every movie (or book or video game or whatever) needs a sequel.

How does anything in this article suggest that this is anything other than Dungeons and Dragons?

gonna push back on this a little bit, it’s definitely not what the first two baldur’s gates were, but there’s a lot of d&d’s ruleset that made it in. adjusted a bit for video game purposes, but based on what i’ve played of d&d (mostly just 5E with a couple games of 3.5 years ago) it’s a reasonably faithful adaptation…

I do hope that this doesn’t dissuade them from Mass Effect multiplayer in the future. Tying it in to the single-player GR rating in 3 was dumb, but beyond that the multiplayer was one of the best aspects of that game. And while I have yet to touch Andromeda, my understanding is the multiplayer kept going strong there.

Wait, companies are realizing single-player games can still thrive and be lucrative?! THAT’S CRAZY TALK, everything must be live-service, there’s no such thing as big single-player games an--

The point of the first few eps was to be fun. I liked it a lot, likely because all I knew going in was that the show was a homage to classic sitcoms with TBD weirdness. The choking scene from ep1 really set the mood and made me want more.
