There are some sadly misguided individuals who think LotR movies are actually good. This post will dispel that unfortunate delusion.
That tone of arrogant superiority is why. This is clearly rage baiting, it would have made it to the second sentence without insulting its potential audience if it wasn’t.
Maybe the author is just really upset and feels the need to be mean about it. I don’t see the need to be mean back, condescension in an article never hurt anyone.
Title: Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings is Utterly Awful
Article: Look at me. Look at me. Hey, Internet, over here. I said something controversial. Pay attention to me.
That’s a bit mean. Why aren’t people allowed to have genuinely held opinions anymore? Why is everyone who disagrees with you faking?

It’s literally rage bait
I don’t believe rage bait is this common. There’s no evidence for this conspiracy theory that the author is hiding anything.
Why else would he be writing about a movie that came out twenty years ago?
Might as well write an article about how shitty you think Lawrence of Arabia is.
We are on a sublemmy devoted to a 20 year old movie. People still watch LOTR.
