It's Facebook to the rescue.
A Facebook group calling for
people to leave negative reviews on the website Rotten Tomatoes for the
upcoming "Black Panther" movie appears to have been shut down by the
social network.
The
plot was reportedly masterminded by anti-Disney internet trolls who had
previously taken credit for generating negative reviews of "Star Wars:
The Last Jedi" and making derogatory comments about the characters, including the addition of more women into the franchise.
These efforts are meant to depress the overall ratings of the movies on RottenTomatoes.com, which have become important in the movie industry.
The group, called "Down with Disney's Treatment of Franchises and Its Fanboys," appears to no longer be accessible on Facebook. A Facebook representative did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
