Think about the state of contemporary Hollywood cinema, there's nigh an original IP in sight these days, at least not in the "nerdy" genres. It's all remakes, rehashes, redos etc, sometimes rehashes of rehashes for ****'s sake. And that's been the state of Hollywood cinema for what now, ten - fifteen years?
If you were a professional movie critic having to watch and write about all that drivel for years on end, would you undermine your own job by (rightfully) ****ting on all the garbage that gets shat out of Hollywood, or would you turn a blind eye?
And then there's also the political virtue signalling to be done, of course (which is also career-essential for most of these guys). So if you didn't like TLD, you're obviously a misogynistic, sexist, Alt-right Nazi.
