Judging by Bio this guy is some Rotten Tomatoes movie critic/YouTuber but there's no way this is a genuine tweet it must be a larp:
β Dave Lee (@daveleedwnundr) November 27, 2024
NOOO FBI PLEASE DEFEND THIS POOR HOLLYWOOD COMPANY
Lmao
Either way most of his replies are smug and obnoxious I don't think it's a larp and a genuine case of terminal reddit brain:
And
I want this person dead
Bonus snitches:
I just watched a whole TikTok where they had a tutorial about how to watch it at home π€¦ββοΈπ€¦ββοΈ I reported it

I didn't even know about this guy until a few minutes ago and I already hate him so much. Fricking smug redditor stereotype.

That comment about Wizard of Oz is not only super smug, it's also wrong. The movie wasn't profitable, but it was quite popular on release; it was one of the top movies of 1939. The movie was just so expensive it failed to turn a profit. It also got multiple Academy Award nominations, including a special award for Judy Garland. It wasn't like the movie took decades to be considered a great film.

He didn't say it wasn't popular, he said it wasn't a cultural touchstone until much later.

I suppose, though I'd say a broadly popular, critically acclaimed film that adapted a popular work of children's fiction, and made it's leading actress one of the biggest stars in Hollywood probably qualified as a cultural touchstone even at the time, at least for the generation.

If he is a movie critic, especially on or for Rotten Tomatoes, this explains his stance. Critics who don't play nicely with the studios don't get early access or invites to screenings, so they have nothing to review. Nothing to review = no job. If you work for media or a website that relies on the big studios paying the big bucks for advertising, saying "Big Studio latest offering awful trash" is going to get you in trouble, hence the difference between critic's scores and audience scores on sites like Rotten Tomatoes.
That he's telling tales to the FBI and Universal Pictures? Yeah he's a toad, but that's his job on the line if he isn't a mean little scummy informer and people get to see movies and make up their own minds about them.
