![]() After the last five Star Wars movies, I prefer to be disappointed in my own home rather than to spend an evening out at the theater being disappointed. I’ve found that since The Phantom Menace, I walk out of a first viewing of the Star Wars movies having really enjoyed them it isn’t until a second viewing that I’ve gone “Oh, this is kind of shitty, actually.” I’m not sure about The Last Jedi, I haven’t seen it yet. They may not be looking for the same thing as you in a movie. In the end, you’ve got to take critics’ reviews of movies with a grain of salt. Which is lucky for us, we have made some enemies. Look, you can’t just shut down a website because you don’t like it. Metacritic has a very similar aggregate score for The Last Jedi, an 86 from critics and a 4.7 from audiences, because they put scores from critics on a 100 point scale and audience scores on a 10 point scale, but sure, that’s better, guy. IMdb and metacritic ratings is more reliable site for movie reviews. RT is a horrible review aggregate site and very unreliable. Both movies will have 90 percent on tomatometer. For example if a movies has aggregate critics rating score of 6/10 and another movies has 9/10 aggregate critics score. The tomatometer system is extremely broken and unreliable. ![]() ![]() 3/5 score for a disney film is listed a fresh/good review and the same 3/5 review score for non disney blockbusters are listed as rotten/bad review. RT has a very flawed aggregate rating and broken system. I guess the guy who made this petition thinks Rotten Tomatoes is part of some conspiracy theory to make Disney films do better in theaters or something. This is what has everyone’s conspiracy-loving panties in a bunch. Star Wars: The Last Jedi is on the opposite end of the scale, with a 91% rating from critics and 52% score from audiences. I’m not the only person who loved the comedy-drama, as it’s currently sitting at a 93% positive audience score, despite a terrible 20% from critics. My favorite new show of the season has been, hands down, The Orville, Seth McFarlane’s brilliant Star Trek pastiche. Sometimes, and this seems to have been happening a lot recently on very high profile movies, critics and audiences disagree. They also have an audience score, where users of the website can leave their opinion. The reason a movie has a high or low score on Rotten Tomatoes is because critics either liked it or hated it. All they do is release an aggregate score of all the reviews a movie has received from websites, newspapers and magazines. Oh, and remember when Richard Roeper, of all people, was branded a sexist for giving a negative review to the dreadful Ghostbusters remake? Today it’s a petition to shut down Rotten Tomatoes because Star Wars: The Last Jedi had a much higher score from critics than from audiences last year it was a petition to shut down Rotten Tomatoes because Suicide Squad, which turned out to be a shitty attempt to copy Guardians of the Galaxy, got bad reviews. If there’s one thing people like to get lathered up about on the Internet, it’s when they disagree with a critic. “The aim of the petition is to deliver a message to the critics that there is a lot of people disagree with their reviews.Would it surprise you if I told you that people on the internet were mad about something? If I told you that thing was Star Wars, would you be even less surprised? How about if we throw Rotten Tomatoes into the mix? Shocked yet? Scandalized? “A petition definitely won’t shut down the site,” he wrote. However, the creator has since added a clarification stating that the goal of the petition is not actually to shut down Rotten Tomatoes, but rather to send a message. “Critics always give The DC Extended Universe movies unjust Bad Reviews… and that Affects people’s opinion,” the petition’s creator wrote. The petition - which has been signed by more than 11,000 people to date - argues that critics don’t give DC Comics films their just dues, ruining them for viewers before they are even released. With stars such as Will Smith (Deadshot), Margot Robbie (Harley Quinn) and Jared Leto (The Joker), David Ayer’s antihero flick is one of the most highly-anticipated movies of the summer. Following a slew of negative Suicide Squadreviews from critics, DC Comics fans have launched a petition to shut down Rotten Tomatoes - an aggregate site on which the film currently has an approval rating of 33 percent.
