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.

I really like the City of Ember movie, even tho it was a major flop.

Red Sonja ruled when I watched it not too long ago. Apparently everyone hated it, critics and audiences alike, but I thought it was fun.

The Master Of Disguise

The turtle scene is one of the best things I've ever seen.

Southland Tales - 41%

Waiting is a fantastic movie. Hilarious, especially towards the end with the new hire. 30% on Rotten Tomatoes.

From Paris With Love. It's fast-paced, has funny quotes.

Warcraft - I loved that movie and hoped it would become a new franchise. The weirdest thing is there was a huge anti-campaign, like the "critics" gave it 29%, while audience gave it 76%. I still don't understand what exactly happened here.

I'm Thinking of Ending Things. I love how bizarre it is, watched it like 3 or 4 times. I was surprised to see it has 50% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.

I don't trust and hence use these rating services. I just watch the full movie

Next (2007), starring the One True God, alongside Julianne Moore and Jessica Biel.

It's a brilliant movie (loosely) based on a Philip K Dick short story. It's been nominated and won actual awards (Worst Actor and Worst Supporting Actress from the prestigious Razzie Awards, Worst Foreign Actor from the Yoga Awards), and it stands the test of time comfortably at 28% on the tomatometer.

I wish I was kidding. I've watched this over a dozen times. I can't stop. Send help.

Hitman

I just like the action, Timothy Olyphant, and like seeing Olga Kurylenko naked.

A lot of movies I like aren't scored well on RT. I'm convinced it's just filled with the kind of people that want suggestion
