Several hateful comments about Captain Marvel, according to HuffPost referenced a recent interview in which Larson had called for a broader pool of journalists writing about films, which she said was ‘overwhelmingly white male.’ In India, similar campaigns were allegedly launched against Anubhav Sinha’s Mulk. Marvel’s Black Panther was similarly attacked, as was Star Wars: The Last Jedi and most infamously, the 2016 Ghostbusters reboot, whose trailer recorded the most dislikes in YouTube history. Several such comments have since been taken down by Rotten Tomatoes, who according to a Huffington Post report did not respond to queries regarding such trolling.Ĭaptain Marvel’s score tampering isn’t a rare occurrence. “Larson’s sexist and racist comments don’t want me to spend money on this anyway, so here you go, Ms Larson,” wrote another. “Larson has made it clear, men need not attend this movie,” one commenter wrote. With more than a week left before Captain Marvel is unveiled, star Brie Larson’s outspoken feminism seems to be the bone of contention.
This score is called ‘want to see’ before a film’s release, and is replaced by an audience score post the film’s release. Captain Marvel’s audience score on review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, which allows users to post comments and rating ahead of a film’s release, has fallen to 40%.
In another instance of a situation that is becoming all too common, a major female-led film has been attacked by online trolls.
