Taking Criticism And Having An Opinion

These days, people associate criticism only with bad reviews. Criticism isn't always negative. Constructive Criticism is actually very helpful. 
                         It doesn't matter whether you are a youtuber, viner, singer, blogger etc you are putting your content out for the whole world to see, so you would've to expect some form of criticism.
      There are namely two ways to take criticism - You can either be butthurt or learn from it. Most of the times its the fandom who get butthurt. 

I know that if anybody says anything about our idols,we try to protect them. Let it be Pewdiepie or even Dan and Phil, not everyone has to like them. They are grown adults, they can handle that. 

Same goes for the band's fandoms. Prime examples here are The Clique (Twenty One Pilots) and Directioners (One Direction).
Don't get me wrong, not everyone is like that. But since both these groups are huge, these types of fans are more easy to spot than other smaller fandoms.

That being said, the critique should also be fair. There is a fine line between having an opinion and being a rude bully. Sadly, people often mix these two. They say the meanest things and then try to pass it off as an opinion. If you don't like a certain celebrity, fine don't, nobody is forcing to like them, but that doesn't give you a right to be an asshole.

Conclusion- A person should learn from constructive  criticism but only if the critique is fair and not just hate.

Why Wonder Woman Will Do Well With The Critics.

Although the DCEU movies have done well at the box office, they were panned by the critics. 
Wonder Woman
Here are 3 reasons for which Wonder Woman will do well with the critics-

A single plotline/story arc- The main problems surrounding BVS and Suicide Squad were their confusing and muddy plot, which was overwhelming for the general audience. The reason for this was that, they had mixed and incorporated various different story arcs. The Wonder Woman movie should not suffer from this problem as they are not mixing several different plot lines but rather are following a simple basic story of Wonder Woman helping in the World War.

Comparisons to the MCU- Another major problem that the DCEU faces is the comparison to the MCU. Wonder Woman won't face this problem as there are no female-centric MCU movie yet. That being said, even though MCU has female characters they are nowhere as iconic as Wonder Woman.

Feminism- Wonder Woman has always been a famous feminist icon. And if the reports of them marketing this as the game changer in the superhero genre and playing more on feminism, this movie could be very big. Comic book fans aside, women especially young girls will be the main key to this movie's success. 

This is just my thoughts on this. Feel free to cite more points and your thoughts in the comments.
