IMDB genuinely is better than RT, the critics RT uses are shitcunts

How is this any different?

Getting a job at a major publication is a bit harder than making an IMDb account.

RT gets points for effort.

Lots of those people who review movies on IMDb also have jobs. Some which are considerably more intellectual and hands-on than being some movie reviewer.

Just because you're knowledgeable of discipline A doesn't mean you have anything worthwhile to say about discipline B.

If that were the case then people would still be listening to Noam Chomsky.

>>79728422
Have you seen it OP?

Also imdb is usually just people who go and rate something 1 star that they haven't seen for whatever stupid reason. In this case, an interracial couple is in it.

He literally the most frequently cited living intellectual on the planet.

My point is that just because you're studied in discipline A, doesn't inherently mean that it voids all other opinions on the subject if they aren't equally studied in it. I don't need a degree in gender studies to call bullshit when I see it, just like I don't have to have a useless film theory degree to call out a movie for being overrated.

>the "I-I-I-IT'S NOT REALLY RACIST, IT'S SUBVERTING THE RACIST STEREOTYPE!" argument

No, it's racist. The movie revolves around the concept of cultural appropriation where upper-class liberals steal black peoples bodies because its cool, and hip.

Nice site.

How long until he delivers the killing blow to the perfect rating of this flick, and proves once and for all how pleb all other movie reviewers are?

It'll be a little while. He's got to find a way to position Trump into his reviews alongside Obama and 9/11.

It might be racist, but I'm not going to accuse a movie of being racist before I actually watch it.

I don't care how famous he gets he will always be Parking Pataweyo to me. The thought of him fucking a white girl out of badness would crack me up throughout the movie.

I'm assuming the silent film? I haven't seen it (nor the 2016 one) but I still would want to judge it myself and also consider historical context.

But I never said that was racist?
