Paul Yanover has been president of Fandango since 2012 Fandango owns Rotten Tomatoes
The percentage of responders who said they wanted to see Captain Marvel went from the the high 90's to 27% ... citing lackluster trailers and comments from Brie Larson in her Crystal + Lucy Awards speech:
“I do not need a 40-year-old white dude to tell me what didn’t work for him about ‘A Wrinkle In Time.'”
and strident Identity Agenda comments on her press tour.
Hours later Rotten Tomatoes removed the ability for viewers to say they were not interested in seeing the movie ... The only option was to vote for seeing it. Rotten Tomatoes did this across the board for all their movies.
Did Disney have a hand in this to protect the only Marvel movie to sink so low in viewers wanting to see it?
