Audience scores are much more unreliable and prone to review bombing. This is a huge change for controversial films like We're All Going to the World's Fair, with a 90% critic score and 28% audience score. With some films, the Metacritic score is available to see, but for films like this, all three review metrics are straight from audiences instead, meaning that anybody who Googles this will think that this was unanimously hated on. It seems like Rotten Tomatoes has hopped on the fanboy hate train for critics. Film criticism has already been weakened as a medium in the last years and this is going to make it even worse.
