Go back and read wtf I just said. I'm talking about people moving the goal post.Eh rt reflects the quality of the film whether you disagree or not. Thats why Rotten Tomatoes has always been mentioned when it comes to reviews/quality of a film.
If I'm unsure of seeing a movie, Id go to rt to see if I might waste my time/money watching a bad movie. Some films that scored higher intrigued me to watch the film. So thats just your opinion.
Common examples of grade conversion are: A+ (97–100), A (93–96), A- (90–92), B+ (87–89), B (83–86), B- (80–82), C+ (77–79), C (73–76), C- (70–72), D+ (67–69), D (65–66), D- (below 65).
For some quick comparisons, this is the same as Eternals. Also getting a B rating, Daredevil, Ghost Rider and the first FF movies. But for the real fun, same rating as BvS.
Elektra and Catwoman got a B in compariXon.That's the thing we a B Cinemascore.
Yeah, a B in an Academic context, is a good grade.
But when it comes to audience scores, the preferrable score is an A- to A level .
Honestly, I think the explanation is simple. I think the movies have mainly been approached similarly and yielded results percentage wise and quality wise similar to Phases 1 and 2 at least. So what's different now? Many are blaming the content amount or other outside factors, but if you ask me, I think just in general Marvel has chosen as the basis for their movies subject matter that is less appealing on a wider audience. The magic space rocks were easy to follow, but clearly the multiverse approach has more people confused and just in general multiverses are a harder sci fi concept that I don't think are as marketable to a wider audience.
Do people really go to RT for audience score though?
And a B from Cinemascore isn't great, especially for Marvel movies.
And if we use Cinemascore's grading system, the movie got a D- from critics...
The problem with this diagnosis is that Eternals and Thor: Love and Thunder were completely unconnected to the multiverse plot and yet were the two worst-received MCU movies before Quantummania.
By contrast, No Way Home was acclaimed in spite of making the multiverse a huge plot point.
BizzareDown to 47%. Tied with Marvel Studios' Eternals.
I doubt it.Part of the the reason for that really low score I think is that even critics are getting tired of the formula and Ant Man 3 is the straw that broke the camel’s back so to speak. If Quantumania and Thor 4 had switched release dates, they might have switched RT scores

Which Marvel movie with a higher CinemaScore grade bombed though?Movies with higher CinemaScore grades still bomb.
Movies with higher CinemaScore grades still bomb.
A cinema score doesn't guarantee a success any more than good reviews do, but it's an indication of the feeling of the sampled audience has, coming out of the theater .
So it's an unreliable sample size.
Why is it an unreliable sample size?
If your point is that the Cinemascore sample is not reliable because its not big enough to represent the majority of the audiences who've seen the film in general, that's fine.
Or are you claiming that Cinemascore is not reliable because it doesn't poll ever single person who's at the viewings they are present at?
I'm not sure what your point is , so you're going to have to elaborate what your point is or what issue you have with Cinemascore.
If your issue is with Cinemascore being used as a measure all together , there's nothing I can do about that .
All of the above.
