Alright, you already consider my stuff as an opinion and 'pulled out of nowhere', there are a lot of 'opinionated' videos  as you wish to call them who are also complaining about the stuff  not being fresh anymore and lacking the actual mojo of vol.1. Most of the positive scores on review sites intends one stuff but implies the other, which means a score 70 still has a negative comment that chimes to a 2.5/5 score. 

"It was also weird to complain about such a broad issue specifically on this thread,.....", I don't think so.

"seems to have enjoyed it greatly as well, including here on VGC." still aims at glorifying the movie with an opinion.

Well I don't get your point, so I guess I'll just stop trying to argue.

I never said everyone in the world liked the movie, in fact I specifically mentioned how professionals and content creators of all kinds seem to be not very thrilled with it. I also don't understand what you mean by "score 70 with a negative comment = score 50", I mean, I'm pretty sure if there were negative comments, those were the reason for a 70.

My point throughout this is that critics and reviews don't really matter at the end of the day. Everyone who goes to see it will come out of the theater with their own opinion on it, no one needs a review aggregator site with a certain % of approval to confirm to someone that it's alright to love the movie (or hate it).

I just defend that people should look at art based on the positives, and always try to be accepting of change. I know my love for this movie is an opinion, as much as anyone else's is as well - I just don't see the point in spreading negativity when it comes to this. I understand criticising something for being bad, but it's important to differentiate between what's truly bad and what's just taste - in the end, arguing with people who like something when you dislike it is completely fruitless and just makes everyone annoyed.

"so I guess I'll just stop trying to argue. " This isn't my issue if you can't read what was stated. I started with how Fandango has an influence on movie ticket sales and how RT being integrated into the same domain plays an instrumental role alongside.  I had also cited a very good source in the same post to express my concern over fresh certifications in RT for movies and how they appear skewed with metrics.

Most of the scores seem forced positive, rather than an actual positive. GOTG vol.1 started as a gamble material for the studio, it clicked well with the audience. It was expected by its huge fanbase for vol.2 to do better, but that isn't the case anymore.  Many youtubers who saw the film have openly expressed their dislike on over-reliant jokes and musical cues and how it turned annoying for their overall movie going experience. 

This is to restate that every major sequel to the original suffered from one issue or the other with the critics, for the exception of Winter Soldier. Thanks to the Russos and screenwriters duo. That all being said, BO gross is a non-issue, as all these movies are poised to do well WW, no matter what. DCEU movies performing so, is an epitome of the same.
