If you want to claim offense…then don’t create a strawman that “review bombing” is tanking bad movies…or to be fair: “unwanted movies”Well if you know I didn't say it then don't use it with me, because I'm not the one. Its a cheap tactic to try and diminish someone's point, you're better than that. Don't stoop to that level.
I doubt its a very small percentage as if it was then it wouldn't be such a problem in the first place. Because its easy to combat a small percentage of review bombers, its harder to combat a coordinated effort. This is why sites like RT shutdown audience reviews in some movies, because its become a major issue.
It goes back to something that even if you yourself admitted here -
The whole point of review bombing is to try to effect the outcome of whatever is being bombed. To sway the reviews in such a way it gives the impression of an overly negative piece of content and hopefully prevent the general public from seeing it. And if its having an impact, even if its just a perceived impact, then it works. That is why they are doing it.
Which brings me back to my whole point, which is you don't need to give more ammunition such as reusing a story line after using it in your own show just 2 years prior. As I said the MCU already has tough time right now, no need to add fuel to the fire.
Yes in my opinion it was "meh", it wasn't terrible but it also wasn't stellar, it was just meh. Plenty of my Disney friends that don't come on sites like this felt the same way.
If a movie is well constructed or offers a lot visually…it will break through and audiences will find it.
Or if you want to argue that (rhetorical)…give me good movies that went down due to tanked reviews? From the basement or not
