Mine's similar because I like almost every Denzel Washington movie
I can't believe Man on Fire got such low matos. I really liked it. But, like you, I like almost everything Denzel does.

I liked it.
You're the 2nd here. Let me be the 3rd. I think I went to see it 3x in cinema, the only time I ever did that. (Saw a handful of films 2x in cinema.) Then, saw it a few times from DVD.
I really don't have much interest in seeing that film now, anymore (while I will still see the other 2 films I mentioned, prolly, a few times) but I certainly find FFTSW a lot better than "bad". :thumbsup:

I can find a handful of sci fi movies that I don't remember being that horrible that getting totally panned on Rotten Tomatoes.

I think the genre overall is underappreciated by the mainstream.

Such as Pandorum, I see now. Don't make me laugh. It's not original, but it's a great movie. (The only thing wrong with it, is the darkness. I like to see a movie, not just hear it. But brightness controls fix that.) Add it to my "critics are wrong" list. :thumbsup:

Wow that was easy - apparently super troopers which blows my mind it has a 35 score. People hate to laugh I guess... no wait, this is the same country that still thinks the blue collar comedy guys are funny....so it does make sense....

I find that shocking. Is that 35 audience or critics?

That's mine too, but it feels like it hardly counts with an audience score of 90%.

I strongly agree with commdecker on Paycheck and a couple other Phillip K. Dick movies. Unfortunately, when I tried to use those as my answer on Facebook, a friend pointed out that the XKCD challenge requires "adulthood," and I wasn't an adult until June 2007 -- past the expiration date for most of these.

I wish there was a nice big easy-to-load list of Rotten Tomato scores for all movies. There are many movies I like, but guessing which ones were panned and finding their Tomato scores is hard.

There kinda is - from the main RT page, go to "Browse All" (Movies & DVDs -> DVD & Streaming Movies), and then there's a page where you can filter by genre and rating (so you can remove all the 50+ ratings). Still not the greatest system, but better than trying names one at a time.
