Everyone Is Realizing Rotten Tomatoes Scores Are Literally Ruining The Movie Industry
Rotten Tomatoes has become the battlefield for Hollywood’s biggest flops and fan wars, and the internet just realized it might be destroying actual cinema. The score system is now dictating which films get sequels, which actors get canceled, and which indie darlings are buried before they even hit streaming. Audiences are furious because a 30% Rotten Tomatoes score just killed a highly anticipated blockbuster before its second weekend, while critics are screaming that the entire measurement is rigged by algorithms and hype cycles. The hashtag #RottenTomatoesIsBroken is trending globally as moviegoers realize that a single tomato emoji can make or break a director’s career, and everyone from fanboys to cinephiles is out for blood. This isn’t just about ratings anymore—Rotten Tomatoes just accidentally confirmed it’s the most powerful gatekeeper nobody asked for.
