QuoteIt's funny people have been using this argument for almost decades on the INTERNET.
"The Majority" of rotten tomatoes/IMDB is part of the "Minority" on the INTERNET.
It's not funny at all.
After box office, those stats on places like IMDB and RT give an overall consensus on how a film was recieved by critics and punters (assuming there's enough votes for it to be legit). It's somethnig that's quantifiable.
What's funny is people falling back on non-quantifiable anecdotal bullshit like "I didn't like [film x] and neither did my friends, therefore
everyone didn't like it".
