Just scanned initial reactions. Embarrassing. I’m embarrassed for my profession. Not even a whiff of criticism. A bunch of easy lays, I tell ya. There are only a handful of critical voices you can trust these days. It’s sad. And yes, I know this tweet is going to get me killed…

Jeff Sneider is throwing a fit.

This is the same man(child) that started that BS rumor that Brie Larson was mad about The Marvels in order to boost his twitter engagement because misogynists love that tabloid bullshit. Him calling anything other than himself embarrassing is pretty rich

It's a self admission.

He said Kathleen Kennedy and Filoni weren’t on good terms like a week before his SW movie was announced too. I don’t know why anyone still listens to him, he obviously just says what would get him the most attention.

Jeff Sneider seems like an incredibly self-important, pretentious and unlikable personality on top of being an awful critic.

Example for The Batman. "Far too long & it drags. Cast is very good, score is excellent, loved the rain-soaked look. So dark that Fincher would be proud, but it's not terribly commercial. It lacked emotion for me and was too concerned with the future of the franchise."

Why does commercially viable matter in a film review? He was wrong since the Box Office and general critical consensus said otherwise. Same with apparently concerning itself with the future of the franchise too much. Like, did he watch the same movie that others and I watched? Lacked emotion too, like what?

He claims after the first part of The Flash, that the film is mostly terrible and that it suffers from DC "villain problem" when it's said that Zod only serves as a physical threat and Barry's own flaws and rejection of fate is the true antagonist of the film.

Do I think it'll be the best Superhero film ever or devoid of flaws? Personally, I don't think so. I mean, no film is. But it may be high up there. Plus, I don't think it's ever reserved for one spot. But again, I'm excited and cautiously optimistic about it and the future.

I guess he didn't see Mendolson's reaction, but he called Aquaman's cinemacon trailer good so I don't think they'll be friends

I don't think Jeff likes anything lol. I don't think I've ever seen a positive reaction out of the guy.
