The MCP - Misleading Rotten Tomatoes (and IMDb) Ratings


Listen Later

So this week, we've decided to take on the juggernauts of pop culture that are Rotten Tomatoes and IMDb. We've all been there, we've watched a movie and formed our thoughts on it (for the sake of positivity, let's say we loved it) and out of curiosity you check what the rest of the world thought only to see a discouragingly low Rotten Tomatoes score. A lot of emphasis is sometimes put on these ratings, with there even being eager anticipation from some ahead of the 'Tomatometer' reveal, but we're here to discuss how important these ratings actually are. Join us as we go through various movies with ratings we greatly disagree with and don't worry, there are also plenty of wild tangents this week. We'd also like to say that since we're dealing with people's opinions, this is all done in good humour and no offense is intended. Everyone has every right to like or dislike something without others demeaning them, and we fully respect that. If you enjoyed, please leave a like, a comment or even a review to share your thoughts; it's all really appreciated. If you'd like more from us you can find us on Instagram (@marvelouscinemapodcast) and on Twitter (@CinemaMarvelous). Have a wonderful day!
