Yay or nay?

This has been a big business presentation.

ambiguous much?

It's a good site, not necessarily good for deciding what movies to see, or citing for arguments, etc.

as long as you don't present their ratings as fact.

It's a fact that The Spirit is currently sitting at 15% fresh at rottentomatoes.com

i never really understood that site. who gets to vote, anyone or just he paid critics? i usually don't check it until after i see a movie. that's true of most reviews though, i don't want my first impression to be tarnished by someone else's opinion.

It's just an amalgamation of all critic reviews.

They don't really "vote" it's just that the site takes a review, determines whether it's positive or negative, and adds the review to the total fresh/rotten score.

i find that i actually do agree with the percentages of their total freshness ratings

for example i really did enjoy transformers 57% of the time
