Because all the verified reviewers are just hoping to sabotage Venom for the benefit of A Star is Born? Those are the only impressions anyone cares about, ain't nobody paying attention to no namer reviewers. A non-story.

Why didn’t venom just buy good reviews? I thought it was a common marketing trick?

Maybe Sony wants their movies to do well on their own merit without resorting to underhand tactics like Warner Bros (a company which is now part owner of Rotten Tomatoes).

Well you’d think a film with such a large budget they’d want to guarantee a return, if it was a smaller budget it wouldn’t really matter I suppose guess buying reviews is just a stupid rumour!

Not really sure what Warner Bros has to do with this nor what them being an owner implies, reviews are submitted by independent reviewers to RT, RT is just like MC where numerous reviews are noted

What is any of this based off apart from your hatred of Lady Gaga?

Rotten Tomatoes gathers critical reviews from other places and delivers a percentage based on the review scores, it's not really something that can be abused unless you're trying to make out that Warner Bros (but let's be real, you're referring to Lady Gaga here) somehow has bought reviews from pretty much every professional reviewer out there that has given ASIB a good review?

As I said before, very few people care about audience scores since they won't affect whether someone chooses to see a film so Venom or Gaga fans trashing each others' films doesn't really matter.

It's fine to hate something but when you're spinning obsessive stories to discredit it then that's when things get worrying.
