Rotten Tomatoes is fighting back against online trolls.
The reviews aggregator site announced that it will prevent users from commenting on a film before its release date, after a recent barrage of negative online comments targeting the forthcoming Captain Marvel film.
Rotten Tomatoes’ move came as it cited an “uptick in non-constructive input, sometimes bordering on trolling”.
Rian Johnson’s Star Wars: The Last Jedi, Paul Feig’s all-female Ghostbusters reboot and Marvel superhero movie Black Panther were all recipients of angry trolling prior to their release in cinemas.
