Biased critics[edit]

Rotten tomatoes audience score 84%, Rotten tomatoes critics score 25%. One of the biggest disparities ever. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 150.143.179.40 (talk) 01:44, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User ratings are not reliable because they are subject to vote stacking and demographic skew. See MOS:FILM#Audience response. Big enough parties with agendas of all partisan spectrums have abused user ratings in this way. Erik (talk | contrib) (ping me) 01:47, 7 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Notable Production Entries?[edit]

Is it really notable that Ron Howard was spotted scouting locations? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.45.156.208 (talk) 01:46, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

It's not the most important part of the article, but it provides helpful details about the production process. Such information is not unusual in film articles. One advantage of Wikipedia over other encyclopedias is that there is not a strict limit in the amount of detail, as long as it's done reasonably and with regard to WP:WEIGHT.

Edit warring[edit]

An editor keeps adding "the performances of some of the cast received praise, with Close receiving supporting actress nominations at the Academy Awards, the Golden Globe Awards, and Screen Actors Guild Awards." This is not a good sentence. Yet, since they don't even know what WP:BRD is, I'm the one who is starting a discussion. (The article included "the performances of some of the cast received praise" in the lead before Razzie noms were added by another user.) ภץאคгöร 14:12, 16 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Can the sentence mentioning the praise be separated from the awards mentions? It looks like the "Critical response" section covers that some performances were praised even though the film was panned (which should be mentioned in the same breath, really).
