Was Captain Marvel Bad? A Sentiment Analysis of Twitter Data

I have seen many mixed reviews about Captain Marvel. I wanted to determine what the general feeling about the movie was on twitter. Here I use sentiment analysis to determine what people thought of the movie leading up to it and after the premier. I also compare the sentiment of Captain Marvel to Avengers: Infinity war, the previous summer's blockbuster.

I get some very interesting results!

If you aren't interested in the code, feel free to skip to 5:58 for the findings!

Interesting. I was wondering how representative this approach is. Querying '#CaptailMarvel' would only pull up a portion of the overall Twitter conversation on the movie, as most casual users don't use hashtags in that way. You're likely looking at a sample of mostly media tweets. Doesn't devalue the analysis of course, great work!

Don't you think the sentiment for Captain Marvel could've been booster by ad-tweets. Even when removing duplicated, these surely impact a lot. Would there be a way to remove tweets that are advertisements?

I am using Python for the first time, I tried your code but when running the program there is a ValueError: Cannot take a larger sample than population when 'replace = False'. Which should be edited? Thank you

Is this compatible with langdetect 1.0.8 version? I'm getting KeyError: 'text' at line 40 where it's filtering for English tweets.

Where is the Avenger's video? I totally forgot how to get the comparative graphs for before and after in lines graphs. Please help.

#14: It's interesting how that analysis can lead to some hypothesis.
I thought Avengers was great and Captain Marvel not so much, but the data, is the data!! #66daysofdata

Can we use geocodes in this as well, I order to know the location of tweets? Kindly reply, it's very important for my project currently 😅
