I personally could care less what a single critic has to say about a movie. But if I hop on Fandango and I see a large majority of critics praising a movie, then that has some substance. And exactly the same can be said when a large majority of general moviegoers are praising a movie.

How much less could you care? Personally I couldn't care less.

If I asked 200 people on the street if a movie was worth seeing and 180 of them said “yeah” I would probably believe them. Definitely going to believe 180 out of 200 people who literally watch movies for a living. That doesn’t mean I’ll see it. I don’t want to see a Top Gun sequel. 98 percent of critics agreeing its good doesn’t change the fact that I don’t want to see it. But it’s a perfectly sensible barometer to determine if something you are interested in is worth spending your time and money on.

Right, exactly. Minus the part of someone pushing you to see something you don’t wanna see, hope that’s not how you took my comment.
