Like I said, the critics who’s loving this and giving high scores are mostly British critics, American critics are kind mixed. And dragging it to 60s doesn’t need bunch of red scores, Time’s 70/100 dragged it from 76 to 75 today. Remember the avg score on metacritic doesn’t really mean ‘average’, every critic that’s been included by MTC has different weight. (For example Spencer started out with a 97/100 with three 100/100 and one 67/100(Ben Croll from indiewire) the real average score is 92/100, and that’s bc Croll has no weight in their system.) And I fear it might get mixed reviews from ny critics, (New Yorker, ny post, ny times etc), and they weight a lot I believe, a few 40 or even 50s can drag down at least 4 to 5 points.

Right now I don’t see dune getting nominations for picture and director. Ratings (metacritic) will most likely to drop significantly (6X/100) after it hits festivals and cinemas in America. ATM majority of the higher ratings are from British critics, where dune is huge. “Incomplete story telling and theme, only to build up for the next movie” is not gonna sell well to American critics. I don’t remember the last time a 60+/100 160M+ budget blockbuster gets nominee for picture. I don’t think rottentomatoes rating will play a factor in this, as after the expansion it’s filled with nonprofessional movie fans, they will praise dune as a masterpiece no matter what, I can see this going above the scores of 2049 or any other Villeneuve films. let see what happens next week at Tiff, I hope it can do well tho.

On RT, I believe a fresh review doesn’t have a rating counts as 10/10? And a rotten review counts as 3/10? Wouldn’t that make the avg rating bit unreliable? I do think metacritic is more reliable when it comes down to ratings/avg points.

So as NZ, but could it just be similar situation as NTTD?

Dune is delayed to dec in aus and nz
