::::I think Ben was referring to professional movie reviews in newspapers and the like. The Amazon reviews-by-internet-vote have the same flaw as the IMDB ratings, and should not be used as a reference in an encyclopedia article. --[[User:DinsdaleP|DinsdaleP]] 11:58, 22 August 2008 (EDT)

:::::I suggest we have some external arbitration from the other sysops to try and work out wording which is acceptable to both sides, as we seem to be going round in circles so far --[[User:J00ni|J00ni]] 17:07, 24 August 2008 (EDT)

IMDB, RottenTomatoes.com, Amazon.com and other ratings/review gathering sites are worthless because they rely on user submissions and can be skewed by people with a lot of free time on their hands (much like the way online polls are often skewed). IMDB and Amazon both have user-based ratings/reviews and Rotten Tomatoes has user-submitted ratings/reviews by other people who may or may not be well-known. I mean, on RT, they have ratings/reviews by such household names as Ken Hanke of the Mountain Xpress in Asheville, NC, and Fred Topel of Can Magazine (I've been in a lot of bookstores and libraries and I can say I've never seen Can Magazine - which sounds like a magazine which needs to be placed in a special obscuring bag on the top shelf), among others.
