Rotten Tomatoes is no longer allowing people to post comments about films before they come out, to try to stop trolling. The site announced the change in a blog post, saying some comments are"a disservice to our general readership".But the movie site assured fans they would still be able to review films once they're released."Audiences can leave a user rating and comments as they always have.""As of February 25, we will no longer show the 'Want to See' percentage score for a movie during its pre-release period," the blog said.

"Why you might ask? We've found that the 'Want to See' percentage score is often times confused with the 'Audience Score' percentage number.""We're doing it to more accurately and authentically represent the voice of fans, while protecting our data and public forums."The changes come after claims that some fans tried to down-vote Captain Marvel before its release date 8 March.

It's always been weird that you can review movies which haven't been released yet

To say that one does not want to watch a film, or TV programme, is NOT trolling.

So all conservative opinions will be turned of, I suppose?

Shame it didntbdo that when DC was trolled. Anyways hopefully it should stop future trolling of any movie.

To stop criticism of the crap SJW movies

Their audience score is the only one worth anything.

Or maybe it's just not good. Like when they tried to remake Ghostbusters but it ended up feeling like a hour and half movie trying so hard to be opposite of the original. Also what makes them fake reviews? They are reviews of peoples feelings. Just because you disagree doesn't make them fake lmao
