They want to hate it because of the grudge against Disney, or KK or wokeness or something.
Lots of Youtubers are the same.
No objectivity at all. Tough way to go through life prepared to be outraged all the time.
Consider the practical age demographic range of the regular posters here now. Using this kind of message board forum is actually "antiquated" for how younger people are mostly using online communication.
The preteens who loved Twilight when it came out, well it might not age well at all. Those preteens become older and their experiences change and more exposure to film/TV will likely make them more discerning about certain things. Also the factor of time. Seeing a bad movie at 17 is one thing. Seeing it at 50ish or so ( or whatever age range that people here mostly inhabit now) is a different ballgame. Carving out two straight hours can be a chore for some people as they have other duties and responsibilities.
The way young people view "wasted time" is not the same as how older people view it. Also things that people will tolerate in their youth won't be the same either as they get older. "Youtubers" who build their brand around "outrage ****" for their personal profit and platform are an entirely different animal. That being said, potential viewers are voting with their wallets and their feet here, because word of mouth isn't very good.
There's a saying I used to use on OSW long ago -
If you've got good steak on the grill, why do you need to drown it in 50 gallons of A1 Sauce? A good piece of meat, cooked right, can stand on it's own.
The "A1 Sauce" here is all the extraneous polarizing stuff that doesn't need to exist to make an actual movie. The "good piece of meat" is something like Severance, or Midnight Mass, or Arcane, or Squid Game, or The Haunting Of Hill House or any number of interesting projects that rest on the merits of it's appeal to entertain and engage potential viewers. Midnight Mass didn't need 50 gallons of A1 Sauce to emerge as something many fans really loved. But on that, you can disagree. Go ahead if you want.
The kind of world I want to live in includes people who can disagree with me.
In effect, The Big Mouse did things that only can exist when you have a margin of error. James Gunn has a film where there's a planet/base where there are tons of people wearing tons of dildos. He can get away with that because he's a proven money maker. He's proven he can get fans , lots of them, to love and follow what he makes. When you can make people give a damn about a talking tree and a foul mouthed Build A Bear, you've created some slack for yourself. In contrast for Kennedy, you cannot operate on full reliance for a margin of error that simply doesn't exist.
Lots of people won't gobble down a whole bowl of A1 Sauce and be OK with that. Maybe you will. If you do, then you do you. More power to you. But many of us aren't going to drink it all down and pretend it's steak. Maybe you think it's steak yourself. Or a good burger. Or something else. Again, you do you. But if you don't like it if others disagree, my answer will always be the same - You'll get over it. Or you won't. Either way is fine with me.
