It was bad in an objective sense. Critics (people critically thinking) have one score, clapping seals with microplastic autism and social media ADHD have another.
people who went to see this already made their mind that it will be good. it's another cartoon we'll be hearing of how good it actually is for years, until we sit down and watch it and realize it's the same shit for babies and morons that company has been pumping out for decades.
Try going to the theater to watch an animated film with an actual working animator. They are insufferable perfectionists that literally cannot enjoy anything.
The movie isn't bad. It's generic, but not bad. There's no twists or interesting concepts. You basically already know what's going to happen because the movie is as generic of a romcom as you can possibly get.
Audience scores on Rotten Tomatoes are completely artificial ever since Disney requested they alter it for the Star Wars films. Only a liar or a delusional b***h would claim companies don't alter these scores to what they can get away with.
There is no reason for them not to pay a handful of indians to spam positive reviews.
Critics aren't part of the target audience so they're more likely to find issue with any given film.
The type of regular person who is going to dislike Elemental will already know they don't care to watch the film, so they avoid watching it and avoid reviewing it.
I've always wondered if there was a legal way to prevent these professional paid shill blogs from writing about your project? The harsh reality is that money talks, which seem utterly corrupt to me.
Because adults watching films for children always have the urge to prop them up to try and pretend that it's okay that they went alone to see a movie where the only adults in the theater should have been bringing their kids.
I can't even trust 5 star reviews on products anymore. I'm intentionally giving things I like 4 stars instead of 5 so it can hopefully come off as authentic.
It's always the "I don't normally write reviews on things but THIS PRODUCT LITERALLY CHANGED MY LIFE" reviews that get me. It's way too positive to the point it's saccharine. The equivalent to movies and video games I guess would be "when I saw [character] I LITERALLY BURST INTO TEARS FROM NOSTALGIA MY 5 YEAR OLD HAPPY HEART IS SWELLING WITH EMOTIONS." Like, yeah that's great I'm glad you were moved by this piece of media but calm down. My generation is so emotional and tied to their childhood I'm sick of it.
It had such a powerful message of course critics loved it. Hollywood is just an echo chamber of idiots back patting each other while they scratch their heads in confusion when the audience rejects the slop.
Not just animated movies.
"School of Good and Evil", which by all account a "good" film (it's not revolutionary, but it's not bad at all) got shitted on by critics.
because the only ones watching this ceap are die-hard pixar fans
Rise of Skywalker is still at 86%
Yes, most people liked it.
It was bad in an objective sense. Critics (people critically thinking) have one score, clapping seals with microplastic autism and social media ADHD have another.
Thats why nobody cares about star wars anymore? They just like it so much?
>if we delete bad reviews that will make it popular!
This is what happens when a film is anti-woke
Is Elemental anti-woke? It's not super woke by any means but I wouldn't call it anti.
I head Wade's sister has a girlfriend.
it's 'just a story' and thus people are eager to be entertained. no obvious woke crap goes a long way these days
I literally watch anything that doesn't have woke shit and pay for it too even if I pirate it beforehand
not having woke shit means anti woke to me
>anti-woke
Literally the main theme of the film is that racemixing is good.
In 2023 being race blind is racist.
Just post that meme with the RT scores and the coping/smug wojaks already
people who went to see this already made their mind that it will be good. it's another cartoon we'll be hearing of how good it actually is for years, until we sit down and watch it and realize it's the same shit for babies and morons that company has been pumping out for decades.

You're projecting.
>moron doesn't know how RT reviews work

the only working animators I know are making porn with overwatch models
Critics watch more movies and it burns them out a little, takes way more to impress them
Probably butthurt that waterboy is an obvious BWC and fire girl is obvious Asian/Latina.
But water boy is black
Pretty obvious the waters are all white due to the empathy alone.
Yet it's doing horribly in theaters. Something isn't adding up, wouldn't surprise me if Disney putting in their own user reviews.

Autists tend to not be very discerning when it comes to animated films. Critics are.
Critics aren't part of the target audience so they're more likely to find issue with any given film.

>"everyone" "loves" it
>bombs

Considering how hard it's bombing, I don't think audiences love it that much
Because the actual audience doesn't love it. I remember a time when metacritic and RT showed all reviews, and didn't delete and hide 95% of them.
>Audiences love it
>Makes less than any Pixar movie on opening in history, including Lightyear
If audiences """love it,"""" then why is it bombing?
love it
>critics nitpick problems
Meanwhile, in reality...

>picrel
Just get rid of all the one star bot reviews like they did for Little Mermaid then the score will go up
😉
>one stars show up
>REVIEW BOMB REVIEW BOMB SHUT IT DOWN NOW
>five stars show up
>perfectly natural nothing to see here

It's positive review bombing, essentially.
It's always the "I don't normally write reviews on things but THIS PRODUCT LITERALLY CHANGED MY LIFE" reviews that get me. It's way too positive to the point it's saccharine.

love it
then maybe these terminally online twitter leftists should move their fat asses to the cinema instead of just review bombing?
love it
Yet they don't watch it? Online reviews are irrelevant. The only actually reliable measure of audience reception is revenue minus costs.
>verified ratings
so I guess the audience score will never go below 90 ever again, huh?

>surprised that it's making romcom numbers
>audiences love it
>pixar's biggest flop
Most movie critics are losers/chudcels. They hate everything that is good and normal.
I don't care. I hate how it looks. It offends me because of how ugly and dog shit it looks. It could be the best movie ever. ITS FRICKING UGLY
