The recent Snow White movie has come back in the social media headlines after IMDb flagged ratings for it, claiming that there was some 'unusual activity.' In an age where reviews and ratings are literally the currency of film debates and criticism, this buzz comes as a wild storm.
Netizens are reacting hilariously to this Snow White buzz, roasting the movie with humor and funny digs. This heavy digital scrutiny made fans ask, Who is spreading pixie dust in the comment section?

As the classic tale of “Snow White” found itself at the center stage of a rating mishap, netizens are dubbing the incident a funny sitcom episode full of confusion and weird incidents.
The incident in question here, as per the online reports, is the sudden surge in the number of positive reviews on IMDb for Snow White. It was, as per the netizens, similar to the act of adding pineapple slices to pizza and claiming it the GOAT pizza recipe.
Some might like it, but others will straight away burn the recipe book. Gen Z humor aside, this situation has set the internet ablaze with memes and jokes. We do not know if this would easily give any movie made so far a tough competition in the department of weird plot twists.
Why, you may wonder? Well, it is because the ratings of the movie Snow White so far have been anything but promising. Amidst the heavy storm of critical comments and ratings, imagine the plight of an IMDb moderator who sits through and reads all the comments.
One can only imagine his head-scratching confusion watching the positive reviews pour in. The question may have been in place: Is this a viral trend where netizens vote against their opinion on a film?
Is it a new form of 'appreciate everything, including things that disappoint you'? Well, who knows? The key takeaway is the importance of rating systems in today's digital world. Fans barely have a chance to express their happiness or discontent over a piece of art. This is why, starting from books to video games, everything comes under the critical lens.
