Marvel Studios’ first female-fronted superhero movie, Captain Marvel according to studio estimates, launched with $455 million in global ticket sales, making it one of the biggest blockbusters ever led by a woman.
Only “The Avengers” movies, “Black Panther,” “Captain America: Civil War” and “Iron Man 3” have opened better in the Marvel cinematic universe.
Before most cinemas even opened for business, online Trolls tanked the “Want to See” meter down to historic lows on the powerful movie review website, Rotten Tomatoes.
The films webpage had been swamped with negative comments, some of them misogynistic, resulting in a 33% Rotten Tomatoes audience score generated from more than 58,000 reviews.
Thankfully, the negativity has not slowed the film’s success and has led many in the industry, including Brie Larson to fight back against the attacks.
Rotten Tomatoes announce Monday that it would ban user comments before a film premieres in theaters.
In Internet slang, a troll is a person who starts quarrels or upsets people on the Internet to distract and sow discord by posting inflammatory and digressive, extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into displaying emotional responses and normalizing tangential discussion, whether for the troll’s amusement or a specific gain.
