Or just not care about other peoples opinions on things and just watch what catches your eye. If it doesn't seem interesting by the nth episode just drop it.
That’s time wasted and you’re usually manipulated into it anyway with cliffhangers and flashy visuals instead of quality content.
If something is going to face plant like game of thrones, I want to know in the beginning before I get invested. All forms of marketing are geared toward hiding those face plants to drive viewership, but it’s the only metric people really care about: is this movie essentially longform clickbait that isn’t going to pay off in the end, like so much of the other shit coming out recently
On the other hand, pretty much anything I've ever disliked I've discovered through reviews or mentions online, while nearly everything I liked I've just stumbled upon myself.
Also because they usually judge criteria differently. They watch a lot of movies and are looking for things the average person isn't.
that's going to cap your bandwidth to what your friends have time to watch... not criticizing, i do the same, but honestly fuck bribed reviewers.
