Not really surprising, this is just confirmation of what's been apparent for a while - Audience score is an accurate estimate of the movie, and the tomatometer (the critic score) basically just reflects the political correctness / marketing budget of the movie.

Lost me here.

Probably because they have an axe to grind and can’t stop themselves from souring every discussion by turning it toward politics. I see this happening more and more on HN and I hate it because this is one of the places I like to go when I need a break from the constant culture war bullshit.

Yes, the discourse on HN is turning really dissapointing recently, lot of “anti-woke”/anti-pc comments get upvoted to the top.

I mean, rotten tomatoes ratings have been fairly political for a while.

It is critic-career suicide to give negative ratings to any girl-power movie, no matter how bad or artistically bankrupt. At the same time, any movie that gets republicans excited (even if it isn't political) will struggle to be certified-fresh on the platform.

> anti-woke”/anti-pc comments

If that's the sentiment, then that's the sentiment. I know it sounds like we've had an influx of new angry redditors. But, a lot of old school HN folks have fundamental disagreements with the woke/pc tent.

I agree that HN should try to avoid culture wars. But not when it is the crux of the very thread we're on.
