They post NOTHING significant whatsoever
Their articles lack even an ounce of research
It just truly baffles me how their site is still up, everything is so heavily biased
Their lists are as bad as their uniformed articles
Please, just some advice from me to you, do everyone a favour and delete the site
This website does not pay it's freelance writers, as a former worker they put money in your face on what you COULD earn, but they don't communicate how they will pay you. Even in the training course you had writers trying to reach out to management on WHERE THEIR PAY WAS. They will fire their writers for asking about how they will get paid as they leave it very vague and do not communicate a method with their freelancers.
They overload work on their writer forcing them to do all the work of a publisher, editor, and writer, essentially forcing low-quality articles. The "editors" do not edit that's all up to the writers.
The next time you read one of their articles, remember that they scammed the writers to do it for free.
Hey Ryan, I'm not sure what that the situation was here but we 100% do not fire writers for asking about pay. Paying writers for their work is important to us and not something we are cavalier about. You're welcome to reach out to me and I'll look into your specific situation.
I thought ScreenRant was fairly okay before, but at least as it exists today, it is of fairly dubious quality content at the very best. Many of its articles these days are nothing but: "It's wrong to think of this character or that character as anything but villainous" or "These moments in these movies are not acceptable today".
Dozens of users on sites such as Reddit have also highlighted the apparently low quality of ScreenRant articles nowadays, and how unconfirmed rumors and poorly sourced fan theories are often used to write articles to generate more views -- or which actors on some TV shows have a worse reputation than others (one article mentioned how "it has been said" by certain seemingly unnamed peoples that an actress "can be rude" at conventions). A bit ironic that so many writers at a site who constantly write about things being "offensive" do not seem to hesitate when viciously attacking, labeling or smearing other individuals quite regularly.
With all due respect, from my personal impression, some of their articles seem more like high school girls' high-strung social media rants rather than truly legitimate and valid criticism of any piece of art or entertainment. Please, for the sake of us all, do a little better, ScreenRant, and try to re-evaluate and improve your standards.
Opinionated filth, which attempts to be humourously clever as it's fails dismally in disparaging various TV and Film icons. Funny it ain't! And rationale is near non existent!
Stories are half baked easily debunked sad excuses for literature. They have little evidence and should not be looked to for any source of information.
Hi Nicolay, I'm not sure what exactly your experience was - but we're not aiming to be a literary site. Our goal is to bridge the gap between hardcore film lovers and casual moviegoers. We write a lot of explainers, editorials, and news - but we've never positioned ourselves as literary.
Non factual and bulls*it. Also adwall every chance they get. They're an internet company bent on spreading misinformation and clickbait stories.
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.
A bunch of losers who - failed in life, criticise others peoples movies. They aren't funny and they are pathetic.
This site is some of the laziest, most opinionated and biased clickbait around. It's like someone paid the Comic Book Guy from the Simpsons to write badly written hateful articles on everything. Expect to read gems like "DC MOVIES ARE BAD BECUZ THEY'RE DARK - DERP" and "FANS HAVE FORGIVEN GEORGE LUCAS".
Just absolute gutter level YouTube-like commentary dressed up as journalism. Avoid.
Hello Peter, I'm surprised by the two articles you highlight here. In general, our team is pretty supportive of the DCEU and the darker tone. We were one of the only sites reporting on the Snyder Cut - and, if you listen to our most recent podcast, are all eager to see the Snyderverse continue. I'm also unsure why writing an article highlighting how some fans have grown to appreciate George Lucas more (after beating him up for a decade after the prequels) in recent years would be considered hateful.
Pretty much what everyone else is saying. I look at mostly the DC Marvel stuff. The biggest thing that gets me a lot is the the dissing of Superman. 15 reasons this character is better than Superman, Superman can't beat these 10 villains, how you gonna list certain villains when Superman hasn't fought them?! But my biggest peeve was the belony they pulled with Man of Steel Superman and CW's Supergirl saying she's superior for really bogus bullspit reasons. Just uugh wtf are you people on?
Hi Dominic, sorry to hear you're upset about our Superman content. Superman is my personal favorite superhero and I loved Man of Steel. No one article on the site is site "canon". We allow writers with different perspectives to share their take - some are better than others but we're not dissing Superman on the whole. If anything, we've been some of the biggest supporters of releasing the Snyder Cut (and did loads of exclusive reporting on that prior to its confirmation) largely because we are massive fans of the Big Blue Boy Scout.
Screen rant is a fun place for people to learn about cool easter eggs, however SPOILER ALERT! Watch the movie first. Even better watch ALL the movies, easter eggs may be fun cool connections about movies but they have another name, spoilers!
The things on there are %90 wrong, there is no way to comment either. If i hadnt watched come of the shows myself, i would've been terribly misdirected to believe this site's BS
All this site is is a gossip rag along with the likes of The Sun and The Enquirer. Trying to stir up trouble where there is nine. Don't believe a word of what you read.
They have fake news. Their opinions, which I know are different and you can't change them, are really bad and their articles are horrific with almost no editing.
The sites decent but most of there articles are blatant clickbait just to get clicks and alot of the time there information is inaccurate especially there anime related things like most of there naruto articles are blatantly false like in one they claim choji can beat naruto and shikamaru also crippled gai could beat naruto they even clarified they meant boruto era him
Too many rumor thats not true, and many articles are hate speech. This site also show disrespect to official and director film. Please, search other news site. This one is unreliable and full of fake
Inaccurate and click-baity. Screenrant are clearly more interested in $#*!ting out new articles and content quickly than they are about the quality and accuracy of it.
Hi Nathan, sorry you feel this way. We are proud of a lot of the content we create and aim for the highest possible accuracy. That said, it'd be lying if I claimed things don't slip through the cracks from time to time. If there was an article that you felt was particularly inaccurate, feel free to reach out to me and I'll look into it.
Too obsessed with their social score and woke agendas to give an honest review. Spammy and too into politics and propaganda.
Every article they write is just pathetic. It shouldn't even be considered news. Hope this site goes down soon enough. Full of useless idiot "writers". No one needs talentless frauds.
Let's start with the goods: Screenrant pays their writers. IGN is already losing here. Until you realize this is the only good this company does. Other than that, most of the articles are distasteful lies, they spoil shows and movies in their own titles which isn't good when it shows up in people's notifications, and and some articles just have horrible opinions/facts everyone already knows they use for clicks. Like, just today, and the inspiration for making this review, I found an article talking about how no one knows Goku's real name. They even put in parenthesis (& It's not Karkarot). You click on the article expecting to read something you've never known, like maybe Goku was mixed up with a kid named Kakarot on accident or something, but no. It's just the $#*! about Goku being based on and named after Sun Wukong which is something EVERY fan knows. And I can guarantee you they didn't even figure this out themselves. It probably only took them 20 seconds of research for an article that a lot of Dragon Ball fans will probably fall for and the person who wrote it will probably make some bank, which is actually the $#*!ing worst. I hate it so $#*!ing much.
Answer: Not at all easy, customer service and management are horrible at communication and responding to emails.
Answer: It's a legal site, When I want to read late-breaking movie news, I'll visit the trade sites like Variety or Hollywood Reporter. However, when I want something fun, I go to ScreenRant. A lot of people hate lists and fun articles, and that is fine, but I would prefer fun stuff to endless regurgitation of the same stories over and over. For people who hate fun, there is always Deadline. For people who love to read fun stuff about movies and TV, ScreenRant is well worth the follow.
ScreenRant has a rating of 1.4 stars from 117 reviews, indicating that most customers are generally dissatisfied with their purchases. Reviewers dissatisfied with ScreenRant most frequently mention and fake news. ScreenRant ranks 315th among Movie sites.
Hi Vana, appreciate your feedback. There are definitely infotainment articles on the site that are, by design, supposed to be fun not hard-hitting editorials but there's also a lot of content on the site that is heavily researched and intended to provide a deeper dive for those who want it. I'd encourage you to check out our Interviews tab and SR Originals section for that kind of content. I apologize but we won't be deleting the site.
