The reviews aggregator has stopped comments being posted before a film’s release date after Brie Larson’s forthcoming movie attracted hostility for having a female lead

Rotten Tomatoes is fighting back against online trolls. The reviews aggregator site announced that it will prevent users from commenting on a film before its release date, after a recent barrage of negative online comments targeting the forthcoming Captain Marvel film. Rotten Tomatoes’ move came as it cited an “uptick in non-constructive input, sometimes bordering on trolling”.

Besides which, I thought women were strong and didn't need rescuing?

OMG! 1. NOT reviews!! 2. The CM rating went down to 26%. 3. NOT trolling! Its called 'interest in the movie'. 4. The reason is Larson's racist & sexist comments. 5. This is censorship! 6. U admit that RT is biased towards CM and its PC agenda?

Nothing to do with a female lead but to do with her inappropriate comments.

It really was just a measure of the Hype to see the movie, not a review. If the movie is good the reviews won’t matter, people will see it. But shutting off this feature won’t magically make people go spend money to see it. Now It just spread people anger onto Rotten Tomatoes.

Lol y’all can really spin some bs can’t you

hated carol danvers since reading Civil War II. won't be seeing the movie. don't care if i'm labeled a troll.

No due diligence or are you outright lying? The removed feature was “Want To See/Do Not Want To See”, not ‘reviews’

Lady racist, crowd unhappy, crowd act, lady not change, platform change?

I'm amazed at how many outlets are getting this on. They aren't reviews. There used to be a function that allowed users to express if they want to see the film or not. It was a percentage with 'want to see' underneath it.

No it does not, its profound that movies promoting leftard adgenta are already perceived as obnoxious garbage that is shoved on our eyesockets through mainstream productions. Hollywood, people are not stupid, your movies will be boycotted and down voted...

provide proof these were trolls!

I have bor seen the film, but I think I am safe in saying it will be visually glossy, reasonably entertaining froth. Anyone reading anything deep of political into a film based on a comic should probably go for a lie down.

How is a fan backlash after her comments 'trolling'? If we substitute the words 'white' with 'black' and 'males' for 'women', her words would have been considered abhorrent hate speech. And rightly so. Its hardly the critics fault that a certain group is more largely represented.

There are no reviews yet, that headline is a lie. Before release you could only comment on your interest in seeing it.

It was literally a button that said 'do or do not want to see,' and people pressed the button you didn't like. MSM: how dare those peasants show distaste for our feminist propaganda! All tools in which dislike for our movies can be quantified shall be purged!

Good for Rotten Tomatoes! Snowflakes bothered by Larson's remarks have earned their time out. And people who would review a film based on its star's comments about critics, rather than on the substance and craft of the movie itself, don't belong in the aggregate score.

If you don't realize RottenTomatoes has been gamed by the studios through strategic critic payolla, you're a sucker and I have a bridge to sell you.

Two seconds after the release 1000s of keyboard warrior incels will decend.

Censorship as rescuing. Yeah, I could see that as the Guardian's take on this.

Bad, condescending title. Shame on you.

White Trumptards are mad... shocker..... not... snowflakes.

Strong woman needs rescuing?

😂

Thanks to disney money.

Also what makes them fake reviews? They are reviews of peoples feelings. Just because you disagree doesn't make them fake lmao
