MODERATORS
I want to live in a world in which viewer opinions (reviews and ratings) are the most accepted indicator of movie quality, rather than how much money it made.
Audience and critical reviews will be the indicator of quality in the long term, once the movie's on streaming and disc. And many movies do gain a new life then thanks to how people feel about them.
Spiderverse is a recent example: it's doing gangbusters this time thanks to the goodwill of audiences who watched the first one on streaming (it didn't do great in the box office.)
