I’m just surprised they haven’t tried to pull what they did for The Acolyte when it comes to Rotten Tomatoes having some set of “blessed” critics giving it high ratings even as everyone else is giving it one star.

I remember seeing all the drama around it and not having watched anything Star Wars in a long time, I thought I’d try to see if it was just anti-woke dumbasses being butthurt about having their “childhood ruined” or being “anti cishhet white male” or whatever the fuck those snowflakes are always crying about.

Nope, it was simply not good. Sure, the wingnut bros were brigading it because they hated the creator and the main actress and their politics, but I couldn’t even finish the whole season. I kept putting it on later at night and literally falling asleep. I’d go back to where I fell asleep and try to pick it up later and would fall asleep again. I tried to watch during the day and give it my full attention, but found myself starting to use my phone again. Turns out the far right douchebros were actually right about a thing. I really tried to give it the old college try, but it was just not something I could even finish.

The same thing happened with more recent Doctor Who. It’s almost like Disney or whoever is purposefully making total shit under the banner of representation in order to cause a blowback? I don’t know how things so stupid got released. It almost seems like intentional sabotage.

Anyway, Melania and Donvict must be both in such a narcissistic bubble that they thought this would work? I think I heard on Pod Save America that everyone would have been less embarrassed here (Bezos, Melania, Donvict) if Amazon had just cut him a check openly as a bribe, or bought into his crypto scam or whatever.

I wonder if any of those involved believed that people would go see this in enough numbers to make all that money back? I cannot imagine trying to put on a front about something like this even as it seems to be failing like Gigli…
