Literally anything critical of Christianity (or anything that could even be perceived as critical of Christianity, we can't actually expect them to watch it first).

I guess I should have kept better track over the years... Let me see if I can find a few.

An obvious one (video game though) that I can think of off hand is The Last of Us 2. Fantastic game, user scores brigaded everywhere "because gay/trans."

In fact, I think The Last of US TV show was review bombed after episode 3. Again, "because gay."

The TV show "The Watchmen" was brigaded by users (not sure if they've filtered those out, or if the score has been adjusted since, but when it originally aired, user scores were very very low due to review bombing). Anyone who's seen the show could tell you exactly why that happened.

Here is an article about it happening to a film about the Armenian Genocide (I haven't seen the film so I can't say if it's good, but I'm sure it doesn't deserve 1-star)

I will have to try to keep track from now on. Sometimes it becomes a cultural moment, like with TLOU, but lots of times it goes under the radar, and a show/movie/game gets quietly fucked over by idiots on the internet who have no interest in even trying the media first.
