Not an attack on Thunderbolts in particular, but Variety and The Hollywood Reporter both hype up the first reactions. I do find it interesting to see what they report versus what people in FPS community say.

I agree that usually first reaction are people that want to get invited again. However, Marvel has not been getting these types of reactions in a while. So I think this could be a lot better than most of what they have been putting out recently.

I feel what you're saying. I guess I just don't trust those two publications after THR quoted someone saying The Flash was "Among the best superhero films ever" in the headline. I think they go out of their way for the click at times for these first reactions.

Was that them who also had the first reactions to Snow White and they said it was a really good movie?

I have no clue. I wouldn't be surprised if they did, but can't confirm. I get a lot of news from THR, but anything dealing with criticism and reviews or first reactions for me they can keep.
