Rotten Tomatoes gave DC's upcoming movie Suicide Squad a 30% rating. Now this has upset quite a lot of DC fans but one fan, in particular, was so upset by the rating that he decided to start an online petition to shutdown the popular movie reviews website.
Now we all know that the website has given quite a few DC movies a pretty bad rating. Although I personally feel that some of those are not up to the DC standards, the ratings they've received are quite low. Even Batman Vs Superman had got a really bad rating when it had released earlier this year, but it did not anger so many people because the movie had mixed reviews even from fans.
Cut to the present, and you'll see that one person, Abdullah Coldwater, has started an online petition on change.org to ban Rotten Tomatoes. And this has actually been signed by 17,848 people!
Personally I just find the whole idea of people getting angry over movie critics really stupid and I'm not saying this because I critique movies too, but because in this case people haven't really done their research. Rotten Tomatoes is owned by Warner Bros since 2016. If WB wanted they could destroy or stop funding the website, but you can't really blame the website because its users are bad or biased.
In fact, one person has started a petition asking all those 17,000 people to just calm down but unfortunately this petition is being supported by 8 people.
