No he doesn't. Would "influencers" include some Nolan fanboys? Obviously. Would it also include a lot of dudes who will trash something they don't like without being afraid of being labeled bigots? Yes. That's why the critics are getting access.

It's wild. I've rarely seen someone want a movie to fail more. And when you say as much he gets all defensive and claims he of course hopes the movie is good. But then he'll follow that with endless negative comments/tweets about it yet again, and round and round we go.
He also could not be more off base with this whole influencer issue. He's basically asserting that the movie is bad, without having seen it yet for himself, or having read a single reaction, utterly confident that this whole tactic is Universal covering their tracks, when he has absolutely no idea what the situation truly is. Another tell that, ideologically, he needs it to fail, so as to keep espousing his worldview.

- I do hope this movie is as good as it can be, given the direction Nolan seems to have taken it
- I don't want for it to nor think it will flop
- Believe it or not, you CAN have nuanced feelings towards projects and neither hate it nor behave like a paid studio spokesman for it
- If, in the Year of Our Lord 2026, you trust professional critics or entertainment journalists further than you could throw them, you're a goofball.
- I don't want to "espouse my worldview" or I would spend a lot of time on politics or religion/philosophy boards. I love movies and am interested in the film industry, but regret how much it has become monopolized by the left (the Mamdani Left, not the Bill Clinton Left), and the extent to which filmmakers today have to kowtow to ideology or throw their talent and hard work down the drain.
- This might be pretty good or absolute ass. Neither would surprise me.

Not sure if the Supergirl or this thread are more entertaining.
There's a difference between not trusting professional critics and automatically jumping to "Universal is obviously trying to tip the scales / silence the normies." You can do the first without going full conspiracy theory, re: the second. Especially when literally every professional article/journalist covering this story says it's about getting rid of the shills, bootlickers, and easy-lay riff raff. There's, like, a tiny, paranoid contingency on social media, and then a few people in these thread, who think otherwise. But sure, you guys know best. Like always.

So they're *all* lying? Got it.
You're the one believing in a conspiracy theory.
Either way, it's common sense, seeing as "influencers" are notorious for being shills / easy lays / in league with the studios.
Only a conspiratorial mind would think that getting rid of the shills / easy lays would somehow be a bad thing.

My brother in Christ, you contributed half of the posts on a 50,000 post thread about aliens.
Still doesn't take away from the fact you're actively promoting one as well.
