Rotten Tomatoes 

An free, online compiler of movie reviews. Rotten Tomatoes generally compiles over 100 reviews for popular movies, and presents the average rating (based on the reviews that give stars) and the percent of good, or "fresh" reviews. If 60% or more of the reviews are fresh the movie is certified "fresh," otherwise, it is "rotten," hence the name of the cite.

Guy A: Did (MOVIEA) get good reviews?

Guy B: Yeah, it got a 93% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, you should definitely see it.

Rotten Tomatoes 

A review website that many people hate simply because their favourite movie doesn’t have of a rating of 80 percent or higher. Primarily used by angry teens to whinge on about how critics are “biased.”

Fanboy: “Oh my God, I can’t believe Batman v Superman got a 27 percent on Rotten Tomatoes! Critics are biased and stupid because they don’t share the same opinion as me!”

Me: “Sorry to break it to you, but not everyone shares the same opinion as you. That’s life. Complaining about it isn’t going to change anything.”

Rotten Tomatoes Dilemma 

When the opinions of your work of art by the educated few and the general public are wildly different from one another, leaving you unsure on which you should treat as important or relevant.

Ah yes, the ole' Rotten Tomatoes Dilemma; do you listen to the critics who know what they're talking about who what you to stimulate them intellectually, or the audience who come en masse to make an emotional connection with what you've made? Which one truly matters? Which one should you take seriously? Who's opinion effects future exhibitions? Do either of them even matter?

Rotten Tomatoes Dilemma 

When you aren't sure if you should listen to the criticisms and opinions of the professional few (critics, analysts and your teachers) or the unprofessional many (fans, peers and the general public).

The ole' Rotten Tomatoes Dilemma: should I listen to the critics who know what they're talking about and have learned advice, or the crowd of people that like what I've made warts and all?
