"Revealed: Hollywood Spin Firms Are Paying Nobodies $50 Per "Review" to Fraudulently Boost Movies' Rotten Tomato Scores —Ace Many of you are not geek culture warriors, and that's okay. So you probably do not know the backstory that makes this revelation so delicious.
For years, corporate Hollywood, the media, and the political left have been claiming that all of the Woke Bombs they produce have actually been greeted enthusiastically by the public -- but Right-Wing Wreckers and Russian Intelligence Officials (seriously) are "review-bombing" huge hits like Captain Marvel, The Little Mermaid, and We Had Rangz.
Corporate Hollywood fed stories to the shill media to claim that Russian Intelligence Officials -- seriously -- were interested in dividing society and encouraging Right Wing Extremism with Movie Review Disinformation. No seriously, stop smirking.
The shill media wrote endless articles attacking right-leaning, or merely normie-leaning, critics of woke movies and TV shows. Weird how this shifted so quickly from "RUSSIAN BOTS ARE GIVING CAPTAIN MARVEL BAD REVIEWS AND WE MUST STOP THIS SUBVERSION OF SOCIETY" to "Gary from Nerdrotic is giving Captain Marvel bad reviews and we must attack and censor him."
Almost as if Gary from Nerdrotic was the actual intended target from the beginning, and the bullshit about Russian Intelligence Services down-voting Captain Marvel was a pretext to start the censorship ball rolling. (Just as the banning of Alex Jones was a test-case to start banning anyone on the right.)
Disney inveighed on Rotten Totatoes and IMDB to start rejecting negative reviews for their shitty movies, and the corrupt corporate-media aligned Rotten Tomatoes and IMDB eagerly capitulated.
And now we find out the truth: That through these years of leftwing censorship and lies, it wasn't right-wingers or Russians "review bombing" these movies to change their Rotten Tomatoes scores.
It was Hollywood itself, paying PR agencies who in turn paid "reviewers" $50 per review to claim that crap movies were actually good.
No wonder Hollywood leapt to the claim that "Right-Wingers are conspiring to alter our films' ratings." Because Hollywood had been doing that themselves all along, and the left always -- always -- accuses you of what they themselves are doing."
