Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that’s an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I’ll go first: I think “Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows” was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

    Constantine - 46%

    Predator - 34%

    Ghost in the Shell - 43%

    Hellboy - 17%

    Robocop (2016) - 49%

    Well, it seems like I have poor taste in movies after all.

    The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. Sure it’s campy and way over the top. But I kinda like it for that. Plus the characters are awesome, the designs were pretty cool, and Sean Connery was great. Currently at 17% on rt.

      I genuinely loved that movie. Watched it as a kid, got the DVD as I got older, downloaded the torrent when I was in college, watched it with friends for movie nights.

      I had no idea it was supposed to be bad! I loved the weird fusion of camp, bizarre situations, and genuine action. Although I did have to chuckle at one of the reviews criticizing its CGI, written twelve years after the movie came out.

    Grandma’s Boy is a perfect stoner comedy. Featuring Nick Swardson in a hilarious breakout performance. RT can kiss 15% of my ass.

      Fuck RT, imdb it’s over 7. That’s really high for a comedy to be honest. One of my favorites and has rewatchability.

        I find imbd more reliable in a way than RT. If you view the 10 to 1 rating system as a percentage chance of you enjoying a movie, then it’s extremely trustworthy. Letterbox is pretty good as well.
