      You have to know how to use it. I know 80% audience and 40% critics will probably be a fun and interesting watch, but 70% critics and 80% audience will be a generic, well made but predictable movie that I’ll find boring. 95% critics 20% audience is arty and need to be in the right mood for. Etc.

        what a weird comment.

        is this supposed to imply i don’t have taste?

        should i clap back about how you prefer to let paid shills tell you how and what to think about media?

        or should we notice that we’re in a thread about liking bad movies and maybe not make attacks on each others’ character in the most chickenshit-ass sideways manner in the name of defending some corpo website from flippantly vague criticism?

      You know, this thread kinda has me thinking. Younger people these days will never know what it’s like to just watch a movie and make up your own mind about it. Every movie is the best thing ever or a pile of garbage and you haven’t even seen the trailer yet.
