For me the first thing that comes to mind is Tales from Earthsea. I don’t think it’s excellent or anything and has plenty of problems but people act like it killed their dog. While it has its problems that have been covered extensively, I think it has a beautiful atmosphere and art.
IMO it would have been better received if it wasn’t advertised as an Earthsea adaptation and was just its own thing.
Let me stop you right there, 10,000 children ages 5-11 did NOT write a Rotten Tomatoes review.
Yeah, of course not lol. It was actually 20,000 children ages 5-11, because each review was written by two kids in a big coat to get past the bot filters.
