I don't need Pat Sajak to mansplain movies to me. His view is skewed by his white privilege.

There are few real critics anymore. It’s all news sites with writers masquerading as critics or outright fanboys pretending to be impartial.

The bigger problem is their need to sensationalize and put out click-bait comments to separate themselves from the pack.

Sajak is a damn national treasure.

And things like Rotten Tomatos lumping all critics together equally is absurd.

Half the overall critic pool they pull from are random millennials from SomeWebsiteYouveNeverHeardOf.com

How they assemble reviews and grading is dookie. The same critic can give 2 movies a 3/5 and on one they’ll count it as a fresh and the other rotten.

Sajak manages to be woke without being an a-hole. It’s an impressive feat. He calls out nobody and everybody in the same breath.

Yep. Rotten Tomatoes is a horrible system, that produces a horrible metric, and on top of that the horrible metric is completely misunderstood by the general population.

It's fundamental flaw is that marginally good movies are vastly overrated and marginally bad movies are vastly underrated.

I wonder if it’s going to suck when they’re gone. Like the showmakers will be thinking hey we have to update Wheel and Jeopardy...make them more edgy, provocative, and sensational.

He's right.

The American Left are, without exception, humorless cnts intent on making everyone around them as miserable and mental as they are.

Pat Sajak is one of the few famous people I think would be cool to kick back and have a beer with.

@patsajak Following Following @patsajak I remember a time when you could enjoy—or not enjoy—a movie based on its merits. Now we have to worry about the politics of casting, the social implications of the film and even the validity of the reviewing process. The joy is being sucked out of pretty much everything.


What is he meaning the "politics of casting"??
