Stop using this word. Some of these critics can barely pay their bills.

Regardless of the reviews, I'll end up watching it - I watched Justice League, and I doubt it'd be worse than THAT.

Probably is supposed to be inspired by 80s Trump.

Morgan Edge, Maxwell Lord, Marv Wolfman's Luthor... they're not direct takes on Trump. Morgan Edge predated the 80's by over a decade. Ruthless businessmen were a staple of the 80's. Trump was a small part of that.

I don't think it's meant in the sense of wealth.

Then maybe they are in the wrong line of work.

The only thing "elite" about them is that they think they know more about film than most people. Which is a very basic definition of a critic. Someone having a different political or social opinion from you doesn't make them an elitist.

Rightwing media has turned it into the most overused and misused buzzword of the past few years.

Why are you acting like such an elitist about this?

When the lefty elitists are saying it’s sloppy and misses the mark with some of its anti-Trump / toxic male stuff


Probably means it was too subtle and not strident enough.
