Good read. I like the data. I've sussed out critics I tend to align with and read what they have to say after watching a movie, but never before. If I want to be disappointed I look to see what RT scores it for comparison. Granted, RT is a relatively spoiler free way to at-a-glance see if something might be worth spending money on but clearly it's less and less reliable over the years. Reminds me of Yelp and their bullshit.
In a perfect world we'd all make much more money to see many more movies and not feel the need to min-max all the fuckin time. Maybe that's just me.
