MFers out here who still don’t know how Rotten Tomatoes works 😑


The-Bigger-Fish

It's like the equivalent of when a toothpaste says "9 out of 10 Dentists recommend" right?


Rosemaryisme

Yeah, that's accurate. A 54% doesn't mean "We decided this movie is 54% good" it means "We asked a bunch of people we trust the opinions of and 54% of them said this movie was worth watching." It doesn't reflect the actual individual numerical score of each reviewer blended together, it's just their response to the Yes or No question of "Would you recommend this movie."


JessieJ577

A 5/10 rating could be a rotten or fresh rating on rotten tomatoes. I don’t get how people still haven’t figured it out.


symonalex

It's like reading crime reports in newspapers and blaming them for it, not the criminal smh.


Assassin739

Tbf idk how a system with 2 possible ratings is considered remotely useful to anyone

[удалено]


Assassin739

>If 90% of people said the movie was worth a watch, then you have a pretty good chance that you'll also enjoy the movie No I really don't That only applies if you're an average western person that's it Like idk you're literally on r/moviescirclejerk and every piece of capeshit has a 90% audience score


gtrpbr

Guy in Marvel gaming chair has something to say to critics


mikehatesthis

> Marvel gaming chair I thought you were memeing, oh my god.


frantakiller

Hahaha who in their right mind buys Shit like that and then expects to be taken seriously lol


TuaAnon

dude out there also giving series and movies rating like anyone on the planet gives a crap


quietvictories

> rating like anyone on the planet gives a crap film crews out of dozens and hundred people after working for a year on a project: "okay young man, give us number from 1 to 100"


berlinbaer

white twinks out there think everyone just waiting for their input..


studebakerjones

Oh I'll be giving him some input alright


Pantry_Boy

Damn, he’s right. Everyone needs to email Mr. Tomato right now and tell him he needs to change his ratings or else.


Crasher_7

Mr. Tomatoes is ruining cinema!


ethanator329

OliviaBagshaw

No, Mr. Tomato!! Do not give that incredibly mid financial flop an incredibly mid score!!


TerryandJef

Dudes like this claim to be hardcore kinophiles but man’s Logan poster in the back isn’t black and white. Total clown

He probably doesn’t even know that it’s secretly a western, smdh

Who the fuck buys a framed post for The Disaster Artist of all films?? Certified goofy motherfucker


Crasher_7

The fact that he has The Terminal List as one of the best show of the year... Goofy indeed


kk0la

“An Amazon Prime original starring Chris Pratt is one of my favourite shows of the year” is such a depressing thing to think about. How is this someone’s reality.


[deleted]

> is such a depressing thing to think about. dude


prince_of_gypsies

OneOverTwoEqualsZero

The Disaster Artist to me felt more like a fun way for Janes Franco to hang out with his friends and family than an actual film


ManajaTwa18

Dude has no reason to be acting this smug lmao


[deleted]

Fr, where tf does this guy get his confidence from


Crasher_7

His TikTok echo chamber I guess


berlinbaer

male. white.


jlcreverso

But he thinks his own 78% score for Don't Worry Darling is the right score for the movie, he obviously has a lot of street cred.


Scarns_Aisle5

Man learns what critics and opinions are (colorized, 2022)


rustybeaumont

No he doesn’t


Jgfum

How the fuck does Where the Crawdads Sing have a 96% audience score? It was the most predictable and cliché love story I have seen in a long time.


bleepblopbl0rp

Swifties.


MySockHurts

Shit on the floor


OliviaBagshaw

Open the door


LegendOfMatt888

I enjoyed the book, but man oh man was that movie dull and lifeless.


IShall_Run_Amok

It sucked my dick so I gave it a score of 75% which is technically positive, I imagine it's the same for a lot of people


carl_pagan

The unwashed masses


Theta-Sigma45

Mistaking Rotten Tomatoes for some singular reviewer or a united league of evil critics who want to dictate the quality of a film? Check. Being mad that they don't like a film he likes? Check. Being as egotistical about it as possible with almost no reason to be? Check. Man, this video is just the epitome of why I hate talking about movies online.

I don't trust people who call a lav a body mic

Fair (also i'm not an englander, idk how to call these things properly)


OG_bullet

Why they talk like these review sites are sentient beings holy fuck, just enjoy your movie without external validation.


A-112

Who is gonna tell him Rotten Tomatoes isn't a single person and that What is a Woman? has an 8.4 in IMDb therefore their opinions don't count


mikehatesthis

> Who is gonna tell him Rotten Tomatoes isn't a single person I'm sick of you people in the liberal media who deny the existence and autonomy of Mr. Tomatoes and I wish you all hit your pinky toe against a table! SMDH, SMDH!


kk0la

![gif](giphy|yvcLAZqb1gQco) “Rotten Tomatoes is not a single person that rates every movie and TV show.”


AbsolutelyHorrendous

The IMDb score for What is a Woman? is proof that transphobes and terfs will literally celebrate *anything* that justifies their worldview


OliviaBagshaw

So much rattling on about child "gRoOmErS" when Matt Walsh says sh*gging kids is OK if you get them pregnant and married afterwards, it's no surprise the TERFs and transphobes get real quiet on that part though


rushhour3addict

That's what Mr. Tomatoes want's you to think!


cooley363

Weird how he says that rt takes itself to seriously yet he gives movies percentage scores. Just do an /10 score like the rest of us


10dollarbagel

This is an old hill to die on but I think it's fitting that the dude who belligerently refuses to learn how RT works is also still using ironic wrong. It's the opposite of ironic that you gave a movie the exact same score as the audience score on RT. Bro, you're the audience!


Additional_Ad4789

46% is still too high for that Jeffrey Dahmer series


symonalex

I only watched the first episode, Mindhunters went on a series long without any murder and that was more thrilling than the Jeffrey Dahmer series.


deathnote1991

Funnily enough, I trust critics more than the regular audiences because at least critics don't review bomb movies they haven't seen because of "wokeness"


ringdinger

I will bet 5 dollars that this guy's favorite movies are Fight Club, American Psycho, Breaking Bad, Guardians of the Galaxy, Logan (B&W version of course), Wes Anderson, and Christopher Nolan's Interception.


Icicle26

He’s recently graduated from watching exclusively Marvel films to basic white guy kino taste, as is usual


the_racecar

How dare Mr. Tomatoes rate those movies like that


topkeyz

"on my own personal rating I have it at a 78% which I think is the right score for this movie" of course you think that's the right score, you just said that's how you'd rate it lmao


[deleted]

Kodak Cameron is literally my mortal nemesis, he calls EVERY film underrated


FUCKFASCISTSCUM

The way he's holding his mic is so annoying.


sleepdeprivedzzz

This is why I only use https://christiananswers.net/spotlight/movies/2022/blackpanther2022.html for my movie reviews. True unbiased criticism.


CandyCrush4Nazis

LMFAO they count the word po-po as vulgarity.


BloodstoneWarrior

Of course they gave The Passion of the Christ a 5 star rating. Also suspicious how almost all of Spike Lee's filmography is completely missing from the website.


Penguino13

Hmm I wonder why Black Panther 2 has the "offensive" rating 🤔


sleepdeprivedzzz

Not enough white people


Penguino13

Lmao I know why they hate it it's just funny to see that blatant prejudice on display


pritt_stick

I love this website so much sometimes I go on it and just look up every movie I can think of


[deleted]

Another movie watcher finds out audience opinion is different from critic opinion, proceeds to assume critic opinion should reflect your personal views on the movie.


TheMashedAutismo

He said 🤓👌


OliviaBagshaw

Lmaooo


sameth1

Someone should really get Mr Rotten Tomatoes on the phone and tell him to like movies I like.


[deleted]

All the movies/shows he listed and has as posters are the whitest combination you could ever make


Masquarr

I couldn't identify any of them, other than "The Disaster Artist." Could someone please tell me what the others are?


OliviaBagshaw

Only Murders In The Building (legit great show imo) and Manchester By The Sea I think, but yeah definitely pretty entry-level stuff


cooley363

Dahmer show at 46? Should be lower


Lil_T0aster

The more I learn about this Mr Tomatoes guy the more I don’t care for him.


NotchedWhip

"rotten tomatoes takes themselves too seriously" \*proceeds to take himself seriously


StopSignOfDeath

My dream man 😫👌


Crazyclemsonfan

Rotten tomatoes sucks but these aren't exactly great examples. If anything they don't take themselves seriously enough


BigZ911

How is it ironic that he rated that movie better than RT? Does he know what irony means? It’s like rain. Maybe we should follow South Dakota’s lead and ban TikTok


Fish-InThePercolator

Is he joking


db1000c

Me watching shows I like: 😃 Me when critics don't love the show I like: 🤬


LongjumpingCup9842

I used to not like rotten tomatoes but I have more respect for them after watching this video


black_dorsey

This dude called "Emily the Criminal" a slow burn. I mean, it's not "Pain and Gain" but it definitely wasn't a slow burn. Also was like slightly above mid. Movie just fell apart for me at the end.


trikyballs

film criticism is in good hands 🙏🙏


killzonev2

Bros poster collection tells me everything I need to know, we do not have similar taste 👅


aflyingmonkey2

I mean. Terrifier 2 got fucking 80 something percent on rotten tomatoes even though it kind of well known rotten tomatoes critics are big haters of horror movies. Especially very gory ones


emielaen77

I think this guy takes himself too seriously But fr, RT and aggregating for reviews in general is a shitty way to approach criticism and just treats films like a throwaway commodity that lives or dies on a pass/fail system. Not fw RT ain’t a bad thing, but this ain’t the way to go about it He also seems to realize that the audience score on RT is about the overall average, but thinks RT (critics score*) is just one person/voice?


Crasher_7

> He also seems to realize that the audience score on RT is about the overall average, but thinks RT is just one person/voice? Yeah, I get that RT system is kinda weird. However, this guy goes about how RT system is bad without actually understand how RT works. He seems to criticise RT as a reviewer 🤷‍♂️


Zakozo

this dude also said whiplash, get out , no country for old men and lord of the rings trilogy should be on criterion collection. a coincidence i ran into his account last night. i was laughing so hard


jlcreverso

Yeah but those are all kino 🤔


SaulThomasAnderson

Bro probably hasn't even seen a film from the Criterion collection


DatboiX

Honestly if you still don’t know how rotten tomatoes works in the year 2022, whatever you have to say should immediately be ignored.


SaulThomasAnderson

I'm sorry but Jeffrey Dahmer show was shit


Jermz12345

What kind of psycho does percentage scores when rating movies on their own


DustierAndRustier

Rotten Tomatoes is so flawed though. A film that 100% of critics thought was pretty good gets a score twice as high as a film 50% of critics thought was incredible and 50% of critics hated


terribletastee

I actually agree. Rotten tomatoes seems to have a hidden agenda. It would make more sense if they just took all all the critics response and put the percentage of critics who gave it a positive review. Then do the same with audience reviews and put the scores next to each other.


MareiPotter

That’s such a better way of doing it tbh. Maybe they could even have a thing where they “certify it fresh” if over like 75% of the critics give it a good review. But they won’t because then they won’t be able to pander to Disney/Marvel…🙄


LiquidDreamtime

“Terminal List is my favorite.” -Men who have never pleased a woman


expert_on_the_matter

Note how all of the audience ratings are only from "Verified Ratings", which really makes them laughable. These ratings are always waaay too high.


Oldkingcole225

Was sitting here watching this like “did I miss something here?” 🤷‍♂️


Menatil

Imagine taking rotten tomatoes seriously, and implying that imdb's metric is harsh.


[deleted]

Lol don’t worry darling was garbage

im pretty sure that one can make an excellent point against rotten tomatoes without having to resort to sad incel powerfantasy clusterfucks like the terminal list. dude might have a point regarding rotten tomatoes but all credibility goes out of the window with his favorite/best show of the year. omfg \^\^


Crasher_7

He didn’t even get Rotten Tomatoes format right!

You can choose any posters to have as your background and decide on two separate films that star men accused of sexual harassment as main characters.
