Everyone who uses Rottentomatoes just have to be aware that the 98% percentage is in no way the same as a 9.8/10 rating which a lot of people don't seem to understand.

I actually believe that it isn't the right way to measure reviews. Metacritic's way is far better. If only it counted more reviews...

The Tomatometer percentage is much more volatile than the average rating, hence why I pay a lot more attention to the latter. It's not a big stretch to say most are in agreement that it's not quite as sharp as The Lego Movie but still a good time, which you can't really gauge by just looking at the Tomatometer.

 

I prefer the average rating as an indicator of average perceived quality by critics as well. The Tomatometer is just a yes/no vote, which means that a film that is perceived as significantly better on average could have a lower Tomatometer score because a few more critics happened to not like it - which is something that could essentially be the result of random chance. This is particularly a problem for films of generally high perceived quality.

Yes, Metacritic has the advantage of all of its reviews providing a numerical score and presenting its data in the form of an average, but the sample sizes are indeed too small. Differences of around ~6 points or less are not meaningful (ie. safe to draw a broader conclusion from) for wide releases, with even larger gaps required for limited releases. Differences in the Rotten Tomatoes average rating are meaningful for wide releases when the difference exceeds 0.2-0.3 points.

What makes it okay is the average rating that is also featured. In that way Rottentomatoes is better than MetaCritic because they have more reviews that counts towards it.

Another rotten was added, but it's Slate, and they hate everything so idk

And it didn't exactly harm the percentage or the average rating so there wasn't exactly a whole lot of "damage" it caused.

Very cool the partnership between Warner Bros and Lego. One company has benefited the other. The marketing used by Warner in the release of The Lego Batman is incredible.

 

While Warner is reemerging for the animated genre with Lego movies, the toy maker has seen continued growth with excellent sales and a powerful brand, or rather, "The most powerful brand in the world" :D

The reviewers for Slate and Indiewire need to pull the sticks out of their butts so they can unbend and have some fun.
