Angry fanboys are petitioning to have rotten tomatoes taken down because of negative suicide squad reviews. Moviesnob Aug 03, 08:24

Kids these days... {nm} Biff68 Aug 03, 08:31

On MovieTickets, advance sales for SuicideSquad are running a hefty 40% ahead of AUG recordholder GuardiansoftheGalaxy from 2yrs ago. tomcat90 Aug 03, 08:38

Maybe Russia could help them out? second gary Aug 03, 08:43

Unfortunately, being a critic these days and writing a review of a film opens you up to harassment though social media from these fanboys {nm} Moviesnob Aug 03, 08:50

For the record, I'm not one of these people. I was a part of the era that helped build "Rotten Tomatoes." I think we still need it. chosenone2oo5 Aug 03, 08:56

But the whole problem is whether you should even "know" about a film's quality before seeing it. Pre internet, you'd go see a movie cold. goodvibe61 Aug 03, 09:27

You only see an unwatchable bad movie once before you start reading reviews... TwoMisfits Aug 03, 11:10

Absolutely. One time seeing "The Garbage Pail Kids Movie," and I literally never want to go into any movie cold again, ever. chosenone2oo5 Aug 03, 13:16

Pre internet you would see the reviews in the newspaper while looking up movie times or you would watch Siskel and Ebert. leo21 Aug 03, 18:53

At least some of the negative reviews are funny. {nm} lesana Aug 03, 09:11

Warner partially owns rt. They sold a chunk {nm} Moviesnob Aug 03, 09:21

The negative reviews won't diminish the box office on opening week-end. I rather think this discussion will help the movie on opening week-e {nm} BlackMamba1893 Aug 04, 02:43
