Interestingly enough the tomatometer seems to be missing for equalizer 3 even though the movie came out last week. Just audience score is showing right now

They busted... its a wrap for them they lost all credibility...:dead: The audience score is the only thing that can be trusted IF ANY...

This is why reading the actual review is what matters, not the metric/alogorithim

I posted in the other thread, my friend who works in Hollywood told me basically no one does that lol

Not sure why anyone would use RT and NOT read the fukking reviews, but I understand, it's like a part of our culture to rate things, Lyft rides, slices of pizza, our dates, our movies, our books, in an easy to read and easy to quantify system.

Love the Hollywood speak too

such a skill to be able to talk to smoothly, how to be so indirect, and direct at the same time, while entirely nonoffensive and deniable

The industry has been on this forever, Weinstein was infamous for these kinds of relationships. Write a good review, get an invite to the premieres, get front row with the models at Cannes.

That's sometimes why C list movies would get at least one glowing review from somewhere like the Idaho Windsor Republic or whatever

Dead Presidents at 49%? How the fukk? Now I know it's just a bunch of cacs and c00ns writing these reviews. Marvel stans used to swear by these critics too but then when the movies started getting shyt on the last couple years they changed their tune about the site.

It's a metric. Just like anything else. Maybe sometimes it can be helpful. But nobody should take it too seriously, especially now that the cat is out of the bag.

The audience paid shills too...:mjlol::dead:

Back then the audience wasn't even 'verified' so it could legit just be one guy sending out dozens of reviews. There's a few people here who I wouldn't put it past Lol.

The last few years they added a "verified" audience score system where you gotta show you actually paid to watch the movie. I still wouldn't trust it completely lol
