The Force Awakens Star Wars: The Force Awakens RT thread: Prediction and Discussion.

[TheVileOne]

The episode 4 rehash thing annoys me. The reason it annoys me is because while there are some similar basic elements, when you watch the film, it feels very different.

It feels like we have progressed and moved past those films. It feels like a progression of the universe rather than a rehash.

 

[kickass]

That's what I like to hear, TheVileOne!

 

[Silver Surfer]

Damn! 97%, wow.

 

[Napoleon]

Holy ****! 97% certified fresh! I know I shouldn't be so concerned with RT scores but that's ****ing awesome! I already knew Chris Stuckmann liked it so I know I probably will though.

Also was Faraci one of the few negative reviews?

Some reviewers will always use the word rehash whenever reviewing a sequel/remake. It's clever or something.

Reading this is very reassuring. Awesome!

 

[Snow Queen]

Few more negatives came in. Down to 95% with an 8.3 average rating, 150 positive and 7 negative.

 

[Napoleon]

How many more reviews will there be?

 

[TheVileOne]

Probably another 100-150.

 

[Solidus]

Now 96%

 

[Iceman]

95%..96%

It's all over lads. Close up shop.

 

[Unbreakable Lex]

What sort of mobilization is being done against those 8 poor souls that gave this movie a rotten review?

Faraci actually gave it a fresh rating. What's weird is that when you read the review, it's mostly positive, but then at the very end he writes "the force awakens is okay."

 

[flickchick85]

Well it would appear I was a wee bit off with my 78-85% prediction. And couldn't be happier about it.

I'll put this in spoilers even thought i wont say anything specific, just in case lol.

Eh, i think the rehash thing is spot on. It's just a matter of it working for you or not. For me, at times it was too distracting because it was so obvious. The movie is still enjoyable of course (ANH is my fave SW movie lol) but you cant deny the similarities. To me, it's the modern version of ANH with some updates.

When does it get to the point where the RT becomes stagnate, and maybe can only move up and down by 1-2 or numbers? At this rate, at 165 reviews, TFA will probably stay in the 90's.

 

[jmc]

Most posts I see from JMC are usually very gloomy negative etc so I'm shocked to see him say it was awesome. It's a miracle!

I prefer the term skeptical.

 

[Octoberist]

JMC's legit.

 

[JOE]

94%... This movie is starting to tank!

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

JMC's legit.

I like him.

I would be surprised if it dips below 90%.

 

[JOE]

What's the current Rotten/Fresh count? It never shows me on my iPhone with the mobile site for some reason...

 

[StarLord]

166 Fresh, 10 Rotten.
