Worst Rotten Tomatoes ratings comparison ever? They disrespected The Wrath of Kahn

Most movies rating sites became useless years ago, but this is egregious. Can anybody find a worse comparison between similar titles?
How is there anyone (and I mean a single individual) on this planet that would rate Starfleet Academy above Wrath of Kahn? Even the 43% is 43% too high.

Rotten Tomatoes has Interstellar at 73% and Star Wars: The Last Jedi at 91% to show you how absolutely stupid and worthless the critics reviews are on that site. The only thing worth anything is the audience score.

to be fair is 99% if critic give a move a like 3/5 that’s 99% fresh
doesn’t mean it’s a better reviews move that 70% of critics give 5/5 starts to and 10-% give 2/5
i think that’s how it works

there are so many examples of this. it's obvious that modern critics are entirely detached from the actual quality of the movie and are instead reporting pretty much solely on The Message.
i honestly wouldn't even be slightly surprised to find out that many of these modern critics dont even watch the stuff the are supposedly rating.

Who gives a frick about rotten tomatoes in 2026? It’s always been such a shite metric in judging if a movie is any good.

For awhile the Acolyte had a higher score than Stranger Things S4, I believe
Saying Rotten Tomatoes is worthless is an understatement

Outside of internet bubbles, The Last Jedi is considered an enjoyable star wars movie. 91% of critics thought it was at least decent (though plenty did and do really like it).
Outside of this website, Interstellar is somewhat divisive. People absolutely loved it or they thought it was stupid, with much fewer thinking it was just a 3/5.
If you don't acknowledge how RT works, you end up with dumb assumptions. The aggregate score does not represent group think. The aggregate score represents a binary. It eliminates the nuance and variety that exists within the writing in favor of a simple number percentage.
Also, how is 87% disrespecting The Wrath of Kahn?

it has an 87% audience score. Critics don't know anything about anything. There's no firm metric, it's just "muh feels".

I would put it about there. I think the OP's point is just that Starfleet Academy was rated higher and it's one of the worst things Star Trek has ever put out.

Rotten Tomatoes ratings used to have value.
"Used to", as in past tense. As in, "not anymore."

Go through the TLJ reviews, and see how many 2 out of 5, 2 out of 4, C- reviews were classified as fresh
I did when it was in the theater, years back.
SPOILER ALERT it is a lot
Easily the most manipulated rating in the history of the RT score

That’s not how it works
But I don’t doubt this new Star Trek show is a turd

I watched the first 3 episodes. I was hoping it was like SNW, as in a horrible Trek show, but passable as a background show while goofing off on my phone
It is unquestionably the worst Star Trek thing ever created. It is basically if you took the SW Holiday Special, crossed it over with The Acolyte. . .and just called it a Trek show as a prank.
It is, just so bad.

If you follow Rotten Tomatoes & for it credit, you don’t know cinema. They are literally a joke.

Compare who the reviewers were for WOK versus now for STA. Not a single "influencer" or "youtuber" in the bunch. Actual critics.

Star Trek Learing Academy. So preachy and condescending. Tig Notaro needs to go back to stand up and Holly Hunter needs to sit up and put some shoes on. What a pile of DEI crap. They already picked up the second season?

Rotten tomatoes is trash, my opinion matters more to me than a bunch of people I'll never know.

MacGruber has a 47% critic score, and 36% audience score. They can all go frick themselves.
