A new report details how a PR firm paid off critics to post positive reviews of 2018 drama Ophelia on Rotten Tomatoes, prompting scrutiny over the reviews aggregator.
I really loved IMDb back in the day. While the user ratings weren’t perfect, there used to be a formula you could use to figure out the worthiness of a movie to watch. Now (10 years or so), IMDb user ratings are inundated with conservatives and older generations who tend to rate based on their fragile feelings rather than on how watchable a movie is.
Don’t forget the anime weirdos voting against incredibly popular shows so their anime can be the best one. Once Breaking Bad was knocked out of the top spots by Attack on Titan and Fullmetal Alchemist weebs I stopped caring about the ratings.
Sure AoT is good and FMA might be good (but bored me tbh), but actively voting against other shows makes the fandoms look ass. Ozymandias was the best episode from any show and it shows you’ve never watched Breaking Bad.
Fair point. I was a jackass and could have made my point more rationally. My offense was with the implied suggestion in the original comment that AoT and/or FMA are only highly rated like that because they’re favored and terfed by “weebs.” It ignores the fact that they are also objectively incredible shows on par with Breaking Bad and many other shows on the list you linked and have just as much of a dedicated following as your favored shows.
Re: the opinion point: linking an article that shows other people sharing your opinion does not in fact make it any less of an opinion. Yes there are technical aspects that can be objectively compared or analyze, but generally speaking, these things are matters of taste an opinion. There is no “objective” best and as such cultural lists and rankings will change.

My original point in my original comment that there was brigading by weirdos as seen here which make the fandom look ass.
I didn’t put the shows down, but adding to the fact that IMDB ratings can’t be trusted because of brigading and paid reviews as indicated in the OP.
And to your second point it is an opinion, I never said it wasn’t, just adding a few links to show it isn’t an opinion that only I hold.

“Woke” doesn’t mean what you think it means, JesusLittleKidLover88, and it certainly doesn’t apply to Crank 2.

Tell me you haven’t seen either Attack on Titan or Fullmetal Alchemist without telling me you haven’t seen either fucking masterpiece.

Personal opinion re: “best episode from any show”. Very bold assumptions re: my familiarity with Breaking Bad
Says the guy who assumed I’d never seen AoT or FMA, and I can assure you it isnt just my opinion.
