I already have my tickets locked in for Thursday. I'm just praying I like it better than MoS.

All jokes aside and in all seriousness, IM3 has damn near glowing reviews on RT for some reason. So yeah

When a highly anticipated movie comes out, the first few negative reviews get more shine.

Maybe this will be like the reverse of reviews that are all praise. Maybe it's getting **** reviews early cuz it's actually good?
Lets see where we're at after 30 reviews or so

Rotten Tomatoes is the last place I would go to for reviews on comic book movies. Chances are, those guys have never picked up a comic book before so they can't appreciate these kinds of movies like a Batman or Superman fan would.e

On a serious note, I still don't understand how IM3 got glowing reviews.
And there's been movies I've liked that has been trashed all over by critics.
Given my history with DC movies though, this is very discouraging.

20 reviews so far. 5 good, 15 rotten.
Welp. Still looking forward to this but my expectations are definitely lowered. I did like MoS, so I hope this is at least better.

On another note, no racist intent, just real observation; big time film critics need to be less old white men, more diverse. Mother ******* made me watch Anomalisa. I'll stick to the niche youtube movie reviewers.

I think generally the old school critics are the ones who have the reputation to get into these early screenings

Same reason Rotten Tamatoes is the last place I would go to for comic book movie reviews: those guys probably never picked up a comic book before. They're not basing their judgement on what they know about Iron Man or Tony Stark, they're basing it on the movie itself.

Honestly, though, I can't share the same sentiment with that RT crowd and many critics for the most part. I'll hear or read what they have to say, but I'm not going to let their voiced opinion generate my like or disdain for something until I see or experience it myself.

32 now halfway to my prediction. Still not sure how RT works.

Idk what the critics being white and old have to do with anything. DC comics roots are crazy white washed, and crazy old.

That a bit elitist.
A good movie is still a good movie. Same for a bad one.
Can't go making up exceptions for comic book movies.
What's wrong with that?

What did you think of Spotlight and hateful eight? Genuinely curious.

That's why I said on another note. I would just like to see more diversity in the top critics (actually not even limited to just movies, food etc), different views. A lot of the time for any of the movies in general there'll be some pretentious criticism I never thought about or can't relate to. Not knocking RT either.

I hated Iron Man 3 because I didn't like the direction they went with Tony Stark, Iron Man, and the Mandarin. Critics probably loved it cuz they loved the story it told.
I loved Dawn of Justice cuz I loved the way they portrayed The Trinity. Critics probably hated it cuz they didn't like the story they told.

I'll be short and say I liked both. Loved The Hateful 8. Thought it got snubbed for the most part cuz for my money it was one of the best movies of 2015.
Spotlight was a strong movie and I got it right when I said it should and would win picture of the year.
Just cuz a movie rating site doesn't share your opinion on every movie doesn't mean you can just disregard it for what amounts to bias reasons.
