So where's the "Never trust Rotten Tomatoes" crowd now?


Why aren't they rushing to defend this movie? After all, the critics are obviously taking bribes from rival studios, right?

Guys?

Not based off a comic book. They don't care.

I'm trying to go for an engaging, funny youtube channel so, if you have the time, take a look. Hope you enjoy what you see. Thanks in advance. A review of the movie here- https://youtu.be/y_su8OEcWKo

It really isn't 'that bad'. I think the rating is absurd considering all the kiddie movies they've touted as masterpieces.

reply

Found one!

reply

Found a 'never disagree with a critic' mindless drone!

reply

Not even close, but go ahead. Defend The Emoji Movie.

reply

I don't see why it bothers you so deeply. Have you actually seen it? If not, that is truly pathetic. If you have, explain what you find to be so terrible about it.

reply

What's pathetic is you defending The Emoji Movie.

reply

Great, so you haven't seen it, you gotta be cool and follow the 'crowd' because 'OMG a movie about emjois idiocracy is near!'. And then you have the gall to be bitching about people who don't trust critics. You're just the embodiment of conformity.

reply

You're defending The Emoji Movie and have the nerve to talk to me about conformity. That's rich.

I thought for certain that the "critics r stoopid" crowd would ignore this one entirely and move on to the next tentpole film to throw a fit and project their inferiority complexes, but apparently some of you have to be a contrarian no matter what.

Bravo, I guess?

reply

Are you still talking? YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE! Everything you write is invalid and moronic. Stop trying to save face by writing "you're defending the Emoji Movie" over and over again. It's meaningless and you're acting like a 10 year old dummy.

reply

Another swing and a miss. You're one of the people who went to see Grown Ups 2 instead of Pacific Rim, I'm guessing.

reply

You have not even once admitted to not seeing the movie because you know how big of a dumbass that makes you, yet you keep pretending I'm the one who's wrong. Only a delusional psychopath so confidently states how correct they are in the face of such obvious failure, trying to draw attention to other completely irrelevant bullshit in desperation. Are you going to come to your senses or prove that you are pathologically beyond help?

reply

It's pretty clear that you're not even defending the movie on its own merits, but simply because in your mind anything universally panned by critics can't possibly be bad. You have absolutely no room to criticize.

Unless you can actually explain why the RT rating is absurd, I'll continue to chalk it up as an inferiority complex.

reply

You're not interested in a critique of the movie. The whole point of your post was childishly baiting and trying to shame whom you perceive as contrarian for no reason while not even having seen the movie. You thought you wouldn't get a response because this 'group' you were attacking would be too embarrassed to defend their position. The fact that you keep trying to label me based off of one statement "It really isn't 'that bad'. I think the rating is absurd..." reveals how one-track your mind is. You weren't prepared for my type of response so all you can do is insult, as shown with your idiotic "found one!" BS. Anything I could possibly say about the movie would fly over your head and you would try to again save face by derailing the subject to how I'm so stupid for defending a movie about emojis.

reply

You are just batting 0 again and again. Either offer a legitimate defense of the film or admit your entire stance is "critics r dum lol." The fact that you're the only one willing to take the bait in defense of this trash says far more about you than it does about me.

reply

You don't get to decide who's 'batting' what you little cretin. See the film then run your mouth.

reply

Wotta pathetic little troll. Nobody has to watch this crap, that's what critics are for.

reply

When you repeatedly make empirically false statements, then yes I have every right to call your batting average.

I'll concede that it's not as bad as Norm of the North, but even that film's 9% RT score was way too high.

reply

I totally forgot to come back and argue with your idiocy. You live in your own little world where you can say nonsense like "You're one of the people who went to see Grown Ups 2 instead of Pacific Rim" but then state in such a deluded, pseudo-intellectual fashion that I am making "empirically false statements". Furthermore, what does Norm of the North have to do with you not seeing The Emoji Movie, or the topic of this thread that YOU created, people who disagree with critics? You don't know or care to understand my position as evidenced by your first dumb response to me. The fact is you and the critics are judging this film based on hating the dumb concept, deciding it is 'cynical' because it features a 'product'. Although ironically The Lego Movie is beloved, probably because toys are less 'offensive' than the often castigated smart phones (which I'm sure they and you own, I don't).

reply

Took you two days to come up with that one, huh? Still not holding water, I'm afraid. You really need to learn about a little thing called context, it will save you a lot of embarrassment.

reply

You're batting 0 grindovermatter. Surely you can come up with something better than empirically false assessments.

reply

So you've completely run out of arguments. Got it. I accept your defeat.

reply

Another swing and a miss. Unless you can actually explain why the Emoji Movie is so terrible, I'll continue to chalk it up as an inferiority complex.

reply

Thank you, but there's no need to flatter me. I already accepted your apology.

reply

I accept your defeat.

reply

Any thoughts of your own on this matter? Or have you given up entirely?

reply

Out of arguments I see? Well that's OK I accept your surrender.

reply

Your trolling is cute, but hardly effective. Either come up with a reasonable defense or stop wasting your time.

reply

I accept your defeat.

reply

Look, I know I'm brilliant, but repeating everything I said is unnecessary. I already know you lost.

reply

I accept your defeat.

reply

It's kind of alarming how hurt you are by this. The Emoji Movie really means THAT much to you?

reply

You got what you deserved.

reply

You're the director, aren't you?

No one else would defend The Emoji Movie to this extreme.

reply

Don't even bother, it is just another retarded troll.

reply

Jeez can you trolls just stay away from the Internet? I don't defend this piece of shit but once again the movie is way better than idiots like you who come here just to insult people who happen to like a movie you don't. It is NOT forbidden to like this movie, so just shut the fuck up and get the hell out of this forum please.

I don't know if you can see with my profile that I am a Stallone fan (on Imdb they knew) but if it was meant to offend me well... You couldn't have picked a worse way. If it wasn't the purpose I just don't see your point... you started to be arrogant, not him.

reply

Nah, it's not that bad. This movie is grossly underrated.
