No its not. What's the tomatometer exactly? Critic opinions. Why are critic opinions the most fair and reliable? Explain please.
Uhhh did you even read that part of my post? Let me quote it for you;
I clearly stated that one was an example of how its not just fans and general audience who rate it so highly, but also within the film industry. That was not listed as an example of a general audience poll. If you want one of them then just say so.
That is what I said in my main post, not sure why it was tough to understand.
I am not saying critics opinion is what matters. I am just saying there are movies that got better critical reception than TDK which can be seen from Tomatometer scores. In terms of reception, I feel tomatometer for critical reception and BO performance for GA reception is the easiest and fairest way to gauge. Tomatometer simply binaries an entire spectrum of subjectivity, which is great and BO performance always showcases how many people are willing to shill out their pockets to watch a movie. Cinemascore is also becoming a decent metric as there seems to be a decent level of correlation between BO performance and Cinemascore rating and its also the fairest audience rating mechanism right now given they are the only ones who ensure the polled folks have actually seen the movie first and there are no online algorithm shenanigans.
By The Academy's president (read my previous post), by the critics, by the precusors of The Oscar (PGA, WGA, DGA, SAGA, Critics Choice,...).
You should take your own advice and read my post again. All of those quoted are not representative of the General Audience.
