We're not saying that it means the positive reactions are unwarranted. We're saying that the reviews are essentially meaningless. It would get positive pre-release reviews REGARDLESS of whether the film deserves it or not.

You are not going to be able to argue with shills
 
Early reviews of Suicide Squad and BvS were really positive too

People get caught up in the hype of getting to see it before everyone else and it’s all showboating. The ones who give positive early reviews probably don’t even believe their own bs

I’ll watch it and decide if it’s a masterpiece, not let some fucko I don’t even know dictate that.

I think the simplest explanation is probably the correct one:

The studios provide those critics they know they can trust to provide a positive review with pre-release access to the film. It's possible there are some other perks that are provided as well.

Chris Stuckmann is one of those critics

He was one of the critics that had Annabelle at 100% RT like 2 weeks before the movie even came out

Im not 100% sure but he has been called out over it before by other popular youtubers

The most recent one I saw was a RedletterMedia video that talked about how suspicious it was

Hmm, I'll have to look into that. First I'm hearing of it.
 
Spoilers below!:

Deckard is a replicant.

You will not convince me that it was just one big coincidence that ALL of those early critics just happened to love the film when so many critics that came after them had issues with it.

No problem. I wasn't trying to force anyone on my opinion, you asked for it and so I gave it. But speaking about F8, I gave it a 7 and so it's not hard for me to believe that early critics' reactions were also positive.
 
Can't wait to see this. Comes out next Thursday over here. Going to splurge and go the V.i.P cinema for it.

C'mon Dragon. . . Lettuce B Reality. . .

Do you really not notice the trend with these pre-release reviews?
 
Ah man, I keep getting bored watching the first Bladerunner. Got 10 mins through then 25 mins through and it's just not me. Can't go watching the new one if I've not seen the old one...
 
The first bladerunner film was too much of a European arty film for me.
 
I didn't really like the first film but I have liked everything Denis Villeneuve has done so far so I'll definitely be checking it out.
 
I was maybe 14 or 15 when i "saw" the first film and was bored to tears.. can barely remember what happened..

That was 13 years ago so maybe i should give it another go before the sequel drops
