I respectfully disagree. As I understand Rotten Tomatoes it just adds up the amount of good and bad reviews and bases a percentage on that calculation. But how do they decide a review is bad? Do they also include reviews in other languages than english? And if the review states the movie is mediocre does that count as a good or bad review? I will take Iron Fist as an example. Lots of reviews counted for the RT scores were based on the first 6 episodes or even only the first. The show definitely picks up in the last few episodes so that part doesnt get translated in the score. Also a lot of reviews were bad because they said the main character should have been Asian. Well that isnt fair since the Iron Fist they went with was Danny Rand who always have been a white guy. Still it didnt help the RT score even though its clearly weird. Dont get me wrong I have my issues with Iron Fist and think its the weakest thing in the MCU but its a better show than the RT score would have you believe. I agree. I'm not hailing RT as a perfect entity of movie judgement. But what else is there to go off of to get a sense of a general objective reception? Fan reaction is too mixed to ever get anything close to unbiased. I usually base it from both RT score AND boxoffice earnings. RT scores representing critic opinions, and boxoffice income representing general audience opinion.

Iron Fist actually isn't as bad as the reviews said. And Iron Fist is a much better show than Jessica Jones. Jessica Jones is a really boring snoozefest. Watching paint dry is more entertaining than watching Jessica Jones.

Watching paint dry is more entertaining than watching Jessica Jones. Jessica Jones suffers from fading into nothing. It starts out good but after a while I lost interest because it got boring. I do love Killgrave though.
