..because the internet is where all truths are placed.
Because it's bad to uppity Negro journalist means it's going to be bad for me.

pretty good shiz for the most part-moreso at indicating the crappy flicks that have been released. I am more inclined to watching something with a 50 percent higher rating(like if a random movie pops up on tv for example which i havent heard of, ill go to rotten tomatoes for reference).

does have its flaws however.

When i used to live in L.a. most of my friends that were in the industry would check this site religiously . they would tell me is as close as it gets in terms of accuracy.

Me , I like this site , 8 out of 10 times the tomameter is pretty much in accordance to what I thought about a movie.

i generally don't watch things below 50% on rotten tomato. I often rely more on the top critics moreso than the general tomato meter.

why waste time if it sucks?

If a movie is borderline I'll read a review to get a better idea of what the movie is like.

How does a normal person decide if they want to watch a movie without looking at reviews? Advertisements? Most of the time they make a movie look a lot better than it is and some of the time they distort the actual apparent subject matter of a movie.

Roger ebert is the best critic imo.

Love that site. I spend more time reading the forums over there than I do on TA now days. I also hardly ever see a movie that is below 50% unless it was a movie I was waiting for. The quality of movies in the theater has sucked this year though. Lot of big movies in May though.
