Feel free and feel often.

That's the philosophy that got me banned from the local sorority.

At the time I'm posting this, the new movie now has five reviews, and therefore has a Rotten Tomatoes rating. Currently it is at 100% Positive.

Oh my, that's huge.

I was worried about RT's rating... but Abrams may have actually pulled this thing off. Looking forward to it

"I'd much rather have one good, critically acclaimed, low-grossing Trek movie than a new series of them based on the financial success of something that stoops to the level of Armageddon and Independence Day in mediocrity"

Well I understand your point, I have to say that independence day is a kick ass film.

Don't count on the Enterprise until it launches. This reminds me of all the hype surrounding Watchmen. All the early reviews were positive but eventually most of the mainstream critics gave it average reviews and most audience found the movie confusing. I predict the same will happen to Star Trek. Most reviewers will give it average reviews (RT score of 50%) with the dreaded "Star Trek fans will be pleased" nonsense and mainstream viewers will go meh. ST will open big but fall away quickly. Paramount will make back it's money because of DVD and foreign markets but will shelve ST because the franchise has no staying power.

Watchmen was hyped for way too long and people were expecting another "V for Vendetta." Instead, they gone a long, confusing throwback to the comic. Star Trek promises to be far more mainstream like the first X-Men movie. I'm infinitely more optimistic.

I've never heard anybody bash Independence Day...

That's a joke right?

Watchmen as a movie was never under anyone's radar besides the rabid fanboys online. Everyone else knew it as the movie being directed by "the director from 300". Was it a good movie? To me it was. Was it a thoroughly entertaining movie? Not really.

I remember that quite well, and this doesn't remind me of it at all.

Actually while there were some early reviews that were quite positive for Watchmen, but before it even reached ten it was receiving negative reviews (some quite negative).

This film has also been screen to far far, far more people then Watchmen was with almost all reports being at the very least positive about the film.

 

[Augustus]

In fact, now we stand with 17 positive reviews and still a 100 % rating. I don't follow rottentomatoes.com super closely, but that seems like that is a sure track to a "fresh"rating. I doubt that of the remaining 100 critics all of a sudden 50-70% will say the movie is trash.

That's what SHE said.

Right before she had to rush from the bed to the eye wash station.

18th Review is up, still at 100%.

 

[Michael Chris]

That is the weirdest review I've seen.

 

[Arlo]

That is the weirdest review I've seen.

It's a "look at me, I'm a witty writer!" review.

Exactly, at least for the first half. When he actually gets into the review, however, he seems to write something straight on and worth paying attention to.

It's what the site does. Mark Ramsey is one of the writers there. The reviews are supposed to be satirical. It's their idiom.
