Or just different thinking for different media and coupled with the fact that a game doesnt translate well or as expected to a movie format.

Pretty much and while I get that from what people are saying it being a movie lacking in gore the Fnaf franchise ever really had blood in it mine Springtrap existing.

Reading the reviews... I feel like this is a case of critic disconnect.

The biggest complaint they all seem to have is that the scares aren't great, too few, and that there's too much focus on lore/the campy story over making the movie scary.

And, fair enough, I guess. But like... the story/lore is literally the thing that the fans are interested in. Nobody cares about the "horror" of fnaf, anymore; it's not 2015. The sole reason the series is even relevant anymore is because of the story/theory crafting community behind it.

Seems to me like the movie is delivering what the audience wants, which is different than what the critics want.

... I mean, the movie is probably still terrible; most video game horror movies are. But these reviews don't really seem like they line up with what the movie or fans were actually looking for.

The movie lore did deviate in places.

You really shouldn't, considering the audience score is easily abusable with review bombing.

Yep.

Cinemascore is an A- meaning that the opening day audience is quite positive, but it was mostly their target demographic. So have to think if you fit that.

It is 2.7 (out of 5) on Letterboxd, which are more film geeks. Not a good score.

Ignore Rotten Tomatoes audience and IMDB. They are both rife with trolls.

I saw it, I thought it was pretty nice. Back half was kinda rushed, but not to the point of being distracting.

Yeah, that's a total misunderstanding of what fans would want from a movie. FNAF hasn't been about the scares since like FNAF 2.
