It is part devil’s advocate but I’m mostly making the same point as you just in the reverse direction. I already clarified in my responses I don’t subscribe to that specific characterization or endorse bending to the will of the fandom. To me the extreme wording makes it a bit of a strawman which again is not what I’m saying is reality, but it’s also what I’m calling the canary in the coal mine, it might not be that extreme a response with your average mildly disappointed paying customer but analyzing the crossover in thought, taking those rumblings into consideration, that’s all worthwhile for the deeper conversation for me, and a more accurate picture which doesn’t appeal to authority (liked and shared youtube reviews don’t reflect the people’s opinion but a small segment of movie critics do).
