Horrible articles
September 24, 2021

The people writing the articles really have no clue about the subjects they're writing about and do not understand what fans really think about the subjects they wrote about. Very biased opinions instead of actually reporting on the facts.

Every article is biased as all hell with no actual point to them. Each article is littered with grammatical errors, clearly showing that they don't have any competent editors on staff. Overall it is just low quality fake news meant for people who are too dumb to notice that the articles are written by a bunch of people who clearly never finished 9th grade English.

Looked up Rush Hour 4 news, found "ten things about Rush hour trilogy that didn't age well". Zero technical critique, just an idealogical lecture by a suburbanite using the platform of films that are loved by people by of all genders and backgrounds. Upon further look it seems to be common on SR sadly. Back to RH, it droned on into a patronising dig at whoever found it funny. The reviewer spun every ingredient used by nearly all comedies for people over the age of 15. They work because of context and delivery. I thought, could you imagine anything more unfunny than this reviewer writing a comedy script?!? I can't

Bad
July 27, 2021

Screenrant is honestly awful

Their articles are biased, clickbait, or, most of the time for me, they talk about things that people already know and claim it's new.

If an article pops up on my google saying something like "animal crossing player discovers thing everyone knew on day one", I know, without having to even look, that it's a screenrant article.

Fake Titles
April 8, 2021

Articles routinely have titles like "20 Things Everyone Got Wrong" and proceeds to list some vaguely related facts that are so very painfully obvious that saying "Everyone" got them wrong would be a complete lie. Major, climatic events that differed slightly between the book and movie are apparently extremely vague.

Opinion made facts
March 26, 2021

Screenrant lies about almost everything. What's worse, they make it look like it's true! Like half of the websites justifies horrible movies/series and the other half talks trash about actually good movies/series. Don't read from this. Please. Supporting this website means supporting misinformation. Don't do that.

So So Bad
March 9, 2021

Nothing more than click bait garbage. I don't mind click bait if the content is decent but ScreenRant is baiterificly cringey with horrendous writing and terrible content to go with it.
They are joyously blocked from my Facebook and Google feed. Hallelujah.

Terrible website with terribly written opinion based articles. The only reason I think they have any relevance is as an example of how not to run a website on films.

This company's work culture is just the poorest that I have ever seen. The managers and editors completely ignore the staff of writers. I don't see how anyone can run a business the way they do. Seriously, do you know what happens when you ignore people? They go away and find work somewhere else.

They pay out one of the lowest rates in the industry. The editors do nothing but cause problems. When you do manage to get one to reply to you, they are always nothing but nasty, rude, and manipulative.

If you are going to work for this company, start looking for other work the moment they onboard you so you can get the heck out of there. The work environment and culture is like having to swim around in a vat of toxicity.

This site is a joke
February 21, 2021

These bloggers do nothing but "write" about speculations and theories. Most of the time they are completely wrong. What drives these people to blog such absurdities? It's just full of garbage.

I would definitely say that ScreenRant is one of the most frustrating film and TV sites out there. Their content is inconsistent and it hardly even looks like their authors watch the content they're talking about. I've read articles that are like "10 Things About______ That Just Don't Make Sense" but in honesty, it turns out being 10 things about this article that don't make sense. Every single point that they make is such a huge reach that I would like to get in touch with the Editor to send them some stretching tips to ensure that the authors aren't hurting themselves from reaching so far. I remember, however, things used to be really good quality but now I just get second-hand embarrassment whenever I read one of their articles.

Every single article screams of poorly informed and disinterested journalists. Their articles all have clickbaity titles with shock value, like "10 characters far more powerful than___" designed to trigger fans and get them to click the link. Words cannot describe the contempt I feel for this sorry excuse of a pop culture Blog

ScreenRant is garbage
January 24, 2021

I would give 0 stars if I could. I frequently get adds for ScreenRant articles based on what movies, video games, ect. I enjoy... I almost always read the caption for any article before I read who published it, and 9/10 times I can guess if it's a ScreenRant article because they are spewing total $#*!e nonsense opinions. It is always clickbait just to rack up views because they pay people crap to write crap articles for them.

This is one of the most inconsistent and illogical movie sites ever. They have entire articles based on fan art and make it seem like it's legit movie news or "what if articles". Numerous headlines that have nothing to do with the subject at hand and articles that constantly contradict previous ones. Most egregious is most of the writers have no idea what they are talking about. The epitome of fake fans, all just for clicks

Having chanced upon this site I was so shocked by the lamentable quality of content on this site, which is uniformly crammed with errors (grammatical and factual) and repetitive, uninformed writing clearly targeting a word count rather than any sort of quality. I was so appalled I sought out reviews of the site to confirm that my incredulity wasn't misplaced. Seems it wasn't! If you want to read content of this standard may I recommend you ask a six year old to write a story about what they did on their holidays, it'll be of a similar quality but likely far more entertaining.

They don't even research anything for their articles it's all half $#*! bull$#*!. The articles they've done on the twilight series alone is incredibly abysmal in the fact that it doesn't seem to research anything before posting their own opinions on these articles it's disgusting.

Bad articles
December 10, 2020

I recently saw an article involving my all time favorite game and how it should be more lgbtq relatable. The person who wrote the article OBVIOUSLY had not played game before or the original to make sure stupid remarks through out the entire article.
This person clearly just wanted their dumb article clicked on just for hits.
The people who allow such idiocracy to be put out there for the whole internet world to see should be ashamed to even be called journalist but hey that's how all "journalist" are these days. Uninformed and desperate.
(I am gay and I took offense to the article FYI)
