Comment on Why ‘Deadpool & Wolverine’ Is the Year’s Most Depressing Success Story
themeatbridge@lemmy.world 4 months agoI’ve been banging this drum for years, but there are a significant number of movie critics who just hate comic book movies. They hate them. It won’t matter if the movies are good or not. They will never have as much fun watching them as they do picking them apart to declare the genre worthless. They come out of the woodwork to dance on the failures at the box office, and they write pithy counter-culture shit like this when they are successful.

I mean if movie critics weren't critical of movies then they would be out of a job.
What I need though is like a movie critic critic, as someone who will look at all the people whose job it is to be critical of movies and filter out the ones who are doing it because it's their job to be critical and the ones who are actually critical of the movies.
