Tom Hardys ‘Venom’ varmer op til at jage en skræk i livet på amerikanske biografgængere i denne uge, men det savlende Marvel-bæst med de spidse bisser må se sig overmandet af Lady Gagas ‘little monsters’ på Twitter.
Sangerindens hardcore-fanbase – der i forvejen kan smykke sig med en vis uskøn notoritet for seriøs mobning af andre solister, heriblandt Ed Sheeran, og racistiske kommentarer – er sålunde gået lukt i kødet på ‘Venom’ med en Twitter-storm af negativ omtale, i et forsøg på at få weekendens publikummer til at udløse billet til Gagas ‘A Star is Born’ frem for Hardys superskurkegys (det er angiveligt umuligt at se begge film … ).
Buzzfeed rapporterer modigt fra frontlinjens kaos, og har igennem kontakt til flere af Twitter-troldene verificeret, at Venom-angrebet er organiseret og de mange sure anmeldelser fake news. »Det er os Gaga-fans, der opretter falske profiler for at trashe ‘Venom’. De har premiere samme dag, og vi vil have, at folk vælger ‘A Star is Born’ over ‘Venom’«, udtaler en Twitter-bruger ved navn @LGMonster95 blandt andet til Buzzfeed.
Men er dén profil et dække over en DC-fan, der forsøger at skyde skylden på Gaga-fans? Det bedyrer en anden fraktion af de små monstre, der i en ny bølge af tweets nu anklager Marvels konkurrent for at være superskurken bag hele miseren, alt imens Marvel-fans er sikre på, at DC omvendt har betalt Gaga-fans for at sætte ild til ‘Venom’ ved blandt at skrive, at ‘Venom’ har traumatiseret deres børn. DC-fans skyder skarpt tilbage med påstande om, at Gaga-fans udfører sataniske orgier under ‘A Star is Born’.
Forvirrende?
Herunder et udvalg af kommentarer fra bokseringen:
I saw #Venom last night and had to leave halfway through, my children wouldn’t stop crying at how bad it was. Luckily a second pre screening of #AStarIsBorn was about to start, and now we are all crying, tears of amazement. Please pray for my eldest he is still in a coma.

Extremely disappointed with the let down that #Venom was ? One of the films I was most excited for turned out to be the worst film. Hate to say that considering I am the biggest Venom fan… Looks like i’ll be taking my family to #AStarIsBorn instead!!

Walked into #AStarIsBorn and was disappointed. Completely filled with Neo-Nazi propaganda and Bradley Coopers character constantly muttered the phrase the “South will rise again.” Taking my 8 kids and 9 grandchildren to see #Venom instead.

Was at the midnight screening of #AStarIsBorn but couldn’t hear a single word because of the commotion coming from this woman , her husband, her 9 children & her 8 grandchildren as they engaged in a satanic orgy. I had to leave to watch #Venom, best movie in years!

Okay, something is up. The negativity around the #Venom movie is looking very artificial. pic.twitter.com/f5LWF3z7Xd

Cmon, DC Fans want #Venom to succeed.
Please ask yourself, what franchise would benefit if #Venom is a failure? https://t.co/dgRdDUkF1k

#Venom is actually good. DC is just paying critics money to write negative reviews.

Og så er der endelig de Gaga-fans, der ikke orker dramaet:
Can little muttonheads just shut the fuck up and watch #AStarIsBorn instead of bashing #Venom isn’t that simple

Man kan kun håbe, at de to film viser sig at være bare halvt så underholdende.
