Oof. THAT must have royally sucked
RT was shit from the start though.
not from the start, it wasn't no. after they sold out, it became a corrupted willing tool of the studios. i made the move to metacritic 10 years ago.
Aren’t they based on the same reviews?
oh they're there too, it's just the formatting, where "professional critics" are on the left side of the page, and users reviews are on the right as opposed to be hidden on an entire different page, it gives a more accurate view, in my personal opinion, or what users think. now, it gets brigades by the incels just like everywhere else, and there's plenty of one review accounts which are seeded by the pr companies, but the site itself, I've never felt is actively accepting and designing their critic roster, review, splash pages, and recommendation processes like Rotten Tomatoes has since it sold out

Remember IMDB in the early 00s? It was you needed from what it set out to be. I recently went back to grab some lists for automation and holy shit it’s a wasteland of bullshit. I can’t imagine getting lost in it for hours learning about movies and deciding what I wanted to watch next if it was what it has become

I really loved IMDb back in the day. While the user ratings weren’t perfect, there used to be a formula you could use to figure out the worthiness of a movie to watch. Now (10 years or so), IMDb user ratings are inundated with conservatives and older generations who tend to rate based on their fragile feelings rather than on how watchable a movie is.

“Woke” doesn’t mean what you think it means, JesusLittleKidLover88, and it certainly doesn’t apply to Crank 2.

Don’t forget the anime weirdos voting against incredibly popular shows so their anime can be the best one. Once Breaking Bad was knocked out of the top spots by Attack on Titan and Fullmetal Alchemist weebs I stopped caring about the ratings.

I miss the IMDb message boards so much. It was so neat to be able to ask a question about a movie or read a post someone made three years before explaining the ending.
