Aint it Cool News Posting FAKE Reviews

Posted by:

According to Variety, Aint it cool News has been posting fake reviews of the upcoming Aliens vs Predator on its site. Members of The-Scorched-Planet.com became aware of a recent screening of the pic in Long Beach, Calif., and, using information available online, wrote three fake reviews -- without having seen the film.

Ain't-It-Cool quickly posted them. The-Scorched-Planet.com then revealed the plot in a long post on its Web site Aint it Cool News responded with.

"There's a democracy to what we do that gives a voice to the average filmgoer, even people who get excited in a theater and write for the first time. If this becomes a continuing issue, though, we'll scale back to just people who have a history with us."

Disturbing when you find yourself caught up in posting false information, or false reviews. I can assure you all that the reviews we post here are by people that DO watch the movies.

It hurts the film industry and the whole review process in general when people start doing up fake reviews, and unless you know the people doing your reviews it is hard to fight.
