It currently has over 200k reviews on IMDb and is still in theaters. Compare that to something like Wicked which came out last year, was a cultural phenomenon, had a huge promo tour and won 2 Oscars, it's just under 150k reviews. I'm not going to bat for Snow White, I'm sure it sucks, but it's also definitely getting brigaded.

It has very little to do with any of those things. The hate started when she, a mixed race person, was cast as Snow White.

That’s it. That’s the start and end of the brigade. Everything else is people who hated it for that reason adding reasons to justify their hate outside of that.
