I guess this is that one time when Disney forgot to distribute those critic coupon books.

:whatthe:

At the same time, Rotten Tomatoes can label a certain review as rotten or fresh as they see it. I've seen them label a review rotten when it seemed the reviewer actually liked the movie except for a few issues and vice versa. I'm not going to say that Warner Brothers' 25% and Universal's 75% ownership of RT has anything to do with it, but is it possible that RT isn't completely objective when it comes to their Tomatometer scores?

Rotten Tomatoes as critic aggregator, score influences, studio tampering Page 2

Quote

I know folks on here have talked about WB owning a large stake in RT. But I guess that changed when Comcast purchased the majority stake in 2016.

Fandango acquires review site Rotten Tomatoes, Flixster

   Quote

Fandango, which is owned by NBCUniversal (Comcast), did not disclose the price of acquiring the two sites from Warner Bros. Entertainment. As part of the deal Warner Bros. Entertainment, which like CNN is owned by Time Warner (TWX), will take a minority ownership stake in Fandango.

The executive is Fandango president Paul Yanover.

PAUL YANOVER, President, Fandango

   Quote

Before being named to his post at Fandango, Yanover served as EVP and Managing Director of Disney Online, where he oversaw all Disney-branded initiatives on the Internet and mobile web, from Disney.com to Disney's suite of premium digital products including online games, virtual worlds, network of family targeted sites, and streaming service Disney Movies Online. Yanover began his career with Disney at Walt Disney Feature Animation, ultimately becoming VP of Technology and digital production for the division, and also served as SVP of Disney Parks & Resorts Online, overseeing the ecommerce business across Disney’s resorts and theme parks.

I had never heard that before.

If anyone is going to get preferential treatment, it is going to be Disney unless Comcast wants to force the Fandango CEO to conduct some campaign against it. Yanover knows where his fallback is an executive, though.

I think anything under 3-1/2 stars is considered "rotten".

I've seen seemingly "positive" reviews with 3 stars, and it leaves me wondering, "why did you only give it 3 stars, then..?"

Rotten Tomatoes is junk. I think most people in the know don't consider Rotten Tomatoes a player any more.

Saw the preview for the Kitchen today with MIB and it looked pretty good. 
Has a nice mob feel to it no comedy which is odd for the actresses in it.

Can't get the preview link to work though.

Does anyone else think Frozen 2 is going to be big? Not as big as the first one, but still pretty big. I remember being in a Disney store with my daughters when 'Let it Go' came on the projector. Every little girl and their mother started singing along, and I knew it wasn't just a blockbuster. It was a phenomenon.

Yes, assuming they don’t screw it up. Which they probably won’t...
