There is around 1.3, 1.4 billion ticket sold in a year and 360m people in the domestic market and around 240m of them go the theater at least once in a year (and teen buy a bit more by capita), if we were really in a time when adults went to the movies 18 times a year's like in the late 40s/early 50s the annual domestic box office would be around 40 billion and A Star is born box office would be nothing of note, quite the average one, we would have like 50-100 adult movie making 100/400m+ a year.

The guys is a regular on a popular film podcast (filmspotting) I listened in the past and I would be quite surprised if he care about DC vs Marvel type of stuff. When you watch 300-400 new movies every year and not in the pundit game, there is way less obsession creeping up and he is quite old for that. Look at it, I am not surprised that he gave a positive review to Man of Steel and a bad one to the last Avengers movie.

Let them live in their fantasy world I can understand you, but: nope Every post like they do furthers the fanatism/blind following of mongers,.... culture. Or newbies/silent readers start to belief them bcs they get repeated so often. Too often I have read such things by newbies and after getting pointed to some background some were really disturbed to have believed such (in the past, other forum), and BOT got mentioned too as 'source' for their impressions Plus it gets boring like hell to 'have to' read too much of this immature BS scrolling through the threads on the search for news that actually have to do with the movie 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Critics are too nice to Disney films compared to others. This part isnt a conspiracy it can be shown with by plotting audience scores vs critic scores. Can I have your excel sheet/link, sound possible: Disney Average MC score: 61 Average audience score: 6.64 Audience gave 108.8% the average critic score Universal Average MC score: 52.87 Average Audience score: 5.96 Audience gave 112.7% the average critic score Paramount Average MC score: 54.61 Average Audience score: 6.18 Audience gave 113% the average critic score Fox Average MC score: 52.88 Average Audience score: 6.1 Correlation: .75 Audience gave 115% the average critic score Warner Average MC score: 52.73 Average Audience score: 6.39 Audience gave 121% the average critic score Sony Average MC score: 47.72 Average Audience score: 5.911 Audience gave 124% the average critic score Would like to adjust for pg-13 vs R and Animation vs Live action (pixar 80.5 average MC score is one reason Disney Score is so high and one were the audience average score isn't higher than that), also has critical score goes up it is maybe bound to happen, the MC/Audience score seem to get higher has the MC score goes now, Sony having the highest with the worst MC average, Disney the worst with the best MC average.

I think it is somewhat well known that MC score went up over time (between 2010 and now), would need to do it because it is bound to be the case for all studio if voters didn't change. 3 minutes ago, terrestrial said: Please save this somewhere and repost it every time someone again writes one of those $%&§$ posts about bias against or pro complete studios or so Well the number at first look do show that it could be true (Has Sony average audience score relative to the critics score could be significantly bigger than Disney), it would need to be adjusted for the release date of the movie, type of movie, MPAA rating, amount of vote/reviews, etc... And even if the audience score / reviews does not match up, that would not automatically tell us about bias and the random sample would always be a bit low. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
