He gained a whole lot more public notoriety than Doug.

>they seemed pretty silent about criticism most of the time

Where the fuck have you been? They haven't bee silent about criticism in the last 9 years. 2016 was the film industry breaking point and when directors and producers got right to work attacking and threatening people when a movie does not make as much money as they wanted. Now any time a movie does not sell as much it's

>If Wonder Woman 84 does not make a billion then every little girl everywhere will not have a hero to look up to!
>If Marvels does not make a billion then it is clearly the work of the chuds and sexists working against it!
>If Strange World does not make a billion then the homophobes will win and little LGBT children will not have any more movies to relate to!
>Bean Mouth is only an excuse by chuds to be racist against an otherwise perfect 10/10 movie that deserves to make a billion

It's certainly a weird direction after taking a year to virtue signal the fuck out of it and attacking anyone else who does not claim to love it as the best movie that ever happened.

The weird reaction to Ghostbusters and how Paul Feig and Amy Pascal decided to attack complete random nobodies on twitter. While inspiring other people with jobs and positions to attack normal nobodies with nothing to lose on social media everywhere. By late summer it was a common practice for anyone to rage at anyone else for not falling in line and giving lip service to bad entertainment anywhere. It was fucking strange to see unfold.

Compound that with #metoo and Weinstein and all the other big guys being taken down and you have a nervous paranoid public that was terrified to go against the grain or else someone might come out of the woodwork and cancel them too. Everyone pretended to be the biggest bestest ally and feminist that ever existed.
