RT Audience Score Rigged Again

Definitely trolling going on. Just last week the interested to see the movie % on RT was over 90%. There is definitely a subset of the population out there who is wanting SW to fail or at least make it look like it is failing.

 

It shows that the "vocal minority" as many users usually say in this forum may not be so small. Just saying. The backslash against the franchise is real, it's an irrational and passional hating that is spreading most of the time for no reason at all. I'm worried for the next years, you can all call me paranoid but I'm really worried and hoping the EP IX can change these things.

 

I hope that's the case, my fear is them to grow like in the Prequels days. This part of the fanbase can be really annoying and obnoxious to the point of influencing the general public.

 

the movie doesnt look that bad honestly, but the trailers just didnt really feel like star wars for me besides the MF and a few other things...I find it funny how people can judge based on things that they do not know...even though I myself might not be fully optimistic about the movie, I'm not about to go to places such as RT and sh*tpost, or whatever you want to call it, just because without seeing the movie first.

 

I think that's the thing. All those nutcases who are so obsessed with the film having to be bad that they are willing to fake vote are already out there right now, doing it. So this might be that entire demographic, at least as it pertains to Solo (seems to be way less than TLJ, but then I think TLJ didn't get to the bot-level of craziness until it had just come out).

 

I honestly don’t why people obsess over the critics and fans scores? I could care less what the overall critics think of a SW movie as I would rather hear from fans like Darth Harloff or John Campea as they atleast ‘get’ SW the way we do.

As for fans overall scores, again who really cares? I still watch the PT and I’m well aware that many fans hated those movies.

This is sort of the problem with blockbusters today is people seem to care more about Box office, rotten tomatoes, whose side is loudest, rather then just giving us a great movie. I’ll take a cult/original SW movie that doesn’t appeal to the masses any day then a safe paint by the numbers movie like Solo.

 

I cited what essentially Darth Harloff said on Jedi Council Non spoiler review, not some random critic. That was my original point, as who cares what the general critics think as that is what the Rotten Tomatoes score is.

 

Rigging scores is not just Star Wars. DC vs Marvel "battles", politically-charged movies like Ghostbusters remake and the Black Panther, corporations rigging scores to make their movies liike better etc. At this point it's just safer to find reviewers you end up agreeing with most of the time and stick to their opinion before making a decision.

 

Screw the reviewers. And screw Rotten Tomatoes. If you're interested in seeing a movie . . . take a chance and see it.

 

I absolutely cannot trust any professional reviewers. Look at TLJ score, look at Black Panther or Wonder Woman. Are these movies masterpieces? Critics nowadays care about agendas. They care that Black Panther is, well, black, and were ready to call it fantastic long before the film was out. The same with Wonder Woman - they score not the film, but the idea of a film.

And TLJ. You know I hate hate hate it, but even if I was unbiased spectator, is it REALLY that good? No. I don't get these scores at all. Our culture rests on hype. We don't see the movies anymore.

 

Funny how the RT scores 4 the PT "seems about rite" but 4 Disney Wars its "rigged".

 

I'm not saying it was downright bad (mediocre though), but was it BETTER than Blade Runner 2049 or Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri?

What story is that? That was by far the most enjoyable DC movie, but the plot was obvious and okay at best.

We have IMDB for that.
