It’s funny how you keep talking about things I’ve supposedly said, and yet you can’t even cite direct in-context quotes to support them. While I’m sure it’s amazing the convenient arguments you can strawman into other people’s mouths, anyone with half a brain can tell you’re talking completely out the side of your

a) Brie Larson never attacked male critics. This has been debunked already and you too can verify this with the magic of Google.

b) The reason why what you’re hearing from the people you know is at odds with the greater consensus is that maybe because one is a much smaller bubble than the other, with less varied

Maybe not the Audience Ratings on Rotten Tomatoes, but I’d be surprised if some of the online troll campaigns across social media like Twitter trying to paint Brie Larson as a “sexist racist” and the film as hated by “non-shillsdidn’t dissuade some of the more impressionable.

Sike, you’ll never make me watch Angry Joe

I don’t think it’s coasting on good will at all, rather in of itself that it’s a perfectly serviceable stand-alone film. It’s not deep, but solid 7/10 fun. Could or should it have been more? Definitely, but I don’t think it should be hamstrung because it wasn’t.

When was the last time a boycott campaign damaged a movie ? let alone a blockbuster .

...paid reviewers...

Larson and Jackson had killer chemistry though.

I sometimes look at critic scores, but I don’t trust user scores on any platform as far as I can throw them. The debacle surrounding Captain Marvel being review bombed is just another reason in the long list of why.

L-look one singular woman did a terrible thing! A-a-and I read that another woman did a bad thing too! We will completely ignore the disparity in volume of these occurrences and pretend that this completely erases the culture of systematic sexism at play in Hollywood and the world at large which is largely

Lmao what “points”? All you’ve presented are bewildering leaps of logic, ironically chock a block full of your own strawmen and ad hominem attacks. You act like a pissbaby troll, I will respond to you like a pissbaby troll. There is literally nothing you’ve presented that I and other haven’t already addressed and

No, you fucking idiot.

No, what’s disgusting is you supporting arguments of people who were actually and blatantly very much using A to take away from B. So, either you’re terrible at comprehension and have decided to piggyback off of prior arguments not realising this, or you’re a disingenous prick now playing the victim. Either way, I

Yes that is exactly what I’ve said, you complete clown - except I’ve stated repeatedly what Frankie Shaw did was wrong.

But you idiots know that, you just choose to disingenuously ignore it because it messes with the skewed narrative you’re pushing that anyone can see through. Like, it’s so fucking basic it’s hilarious.

Except no one is saying anyone should be let off the hook, you magnanimous strawmanning dork. If you’re going to bump old threads with an angry hard-on, try reading and comprehending first. But that’d mean actually having a genuine position.

Thank you for explaining more in depth, I stand corrected about what you were trying to say.

Captain Marvel isn’t immune from genuine criticism more than any other film, sure. I don’t think anyone worth their salt has said that, really. Even the most glowing reviews I’ve read have criticisms about something or other.

“How can we make Kevin more than a token gay and twice as insufferable?”
“Let’s have him join a cult!”

Here’s the thing: when you say “special treatment”, it shows that what you think is that people are asking for women to be placed on a pedestal higher than men. What you’re denoting between the lines is that you believe women and men have it the same in the current world. This is demonstrably wrong for a number of

Trying to push an easily debunked falsehood that someone is racist and sexist because they’re threatened by them sure does.

I liked that the main villain of the film was literally gaslighting Carol. Can’t tap into the female experience for superhero audiences more than that.
