I officially don't understand Rottentomatoes.

Saw Warcraft yesterday, it was a completely fine movie. Lazy editing, some cheesy dialogue etc. but 22%? Compared to those flicks?

nobody believes the disney paying cw critics bullshit, but there MUST be something these people saw on those shitty, lame movies that you and i are simply unable to appreciate.

I'm surprised too. As boring as most marvel films are at least they work as movies with a beginning middle end and characters that make some kind of sense

Rotten Tomatoes is a shitty website on which people can only put up 2 kinds of reviews: "amazing" or "godawful". Since 99% of the movies made don't fit into those categories and you can have a good but still deeply flawed movie or a bad movie but with nice redeeming features, RT is completely irrelevant and shouldn't be held as a standard of quality reviews.

Also, marks aren't reviews. Good critics don't simply put a percentage on a piece of art and call it a day.

I meant that you can't trust a mark, whether it's on RT or imdb, since marks or percentages aren't ways to review movies, nor are they ways to trust an opinion. Before going to see a movie, read a review, don't simply go on imdb and figure that such score means such and such when it's not a proper way to review a movie, or anything for that matter.

Scared of what?
Prince of Persia came out 6 years ago, it made 300 million, which is quite more than Warcraft looks like it's going to make, and nothing came out of it.

Assassins Creed will probably make much more than Warcraft too, and it'll be a much better movie too.

Yeah, and of all things, bad videogame movies are going to kill capeshit?

It's funny seeing Blizzdrones trying to find a target when someone shits on the garbage they've been looking forward to.
Videogame flicks have always been garbage, they have never delivered a single decent movie, and this movie looked terrible since the first trailer.

Everyone could see it was going to get shit on, hard.

What's even more funny is how people said this would get a 60% on RT, and then shit on it when it no longer suits their arguments.

I'm sure you have to make a couple of Overwatch shill threads in /v/, so i'll leave you alone.

Warcraft is the biggest split between my reaction and critic reaction I have ever seen. I can understand why people think its just a mindless popcorn flick, but I don't understand how people can think it is 1/10 total shit.

I've never played WoW, let alone "blizzdrone" (are there seriously people who are fans of incorporated companies?), but i'm going to see the movie again. Don't expect anyone to believe me, but I nevertheless submit this evidence to the court.

you fucking morons, it has an average rating of 4.4, thats slightly below mediocre, civil war has 7.6, that's not that high

the tomato meter is just a measure of how many critics gave it a positive review, a movie with a hundred 6/10s get's a 100% rating, a movie with a hundred 5/10s get's a 0% rating

You're right, you and the rest of /tv/ really DON'T understand RT. To the point where I think it's a meme that goes over my head.

The score isn't rating the movie, it's talking critical consensus. Look at the average ratings for those movies. They're C and D averages. That's not great.

>>70302634
Civil War wasn't even nearly as good as Winter Soldier or Guardians How the fuck it scored that high I have no idea.
>>
>>70304728
it's so high right now because the movie's not even out yet in many countries. Majority of people haven't voted yet. Regardless of whether the movie is good or not, early IMDB ratings are always shit. Wait for a week after it comes out and it'll start to stablilize.

Maybe if they didn't remove 40 minutes of the film (Part in the picture was never in the film),

and people didn't have see it with an already negative view on video game movies and

Maybe then, it would have had a better score.

They take an "average" of reviews
If a review says it was good it gets a plus in the positives checkbox, if the review is either average or bad it gets a negative checkbox. Most reviewers are saying the movie was fine, nothing amazing, but fine and perfectly watchable. This average review actually gives a it a negative score, the tally MUST to go one way or the other, so average reviews are not seen as positive. This is why RT is fucking cancer.

I have not found a single reviewer saying the movie was a mess like this is implying, its always "It was alright".

Also how the fuck is Civil War that high, It was boring for most of the movie with one good scene. Everything about it screams "average", the music, cinematography, plot(which has holes in it) was all middle of the road, but here its shown as a near perfect movie.
