Rotten Tomatoes is embroiled in a new controversy over paid reviews, but it's not like the site has ever been devoid of problems or hot-button issues.
There has always been criticism of Rotten Tomatoes. The site has cast such a wide shadow over film discourse for so long that it feels like the shortcomings of this review aggregate website are almost as enduring as anything else related to this online destination.
This Vulture essay goes on to quote various insiders in the movie business about just how important working with Rotten Tomatoes has become in their day-to-day jobs. The site's metrics have even influenced the way studios green light movies while major companies have often selectively screened their titles in advance to certain potentially more receptive crowds to ensure an early noteworthy Rotten Tomatoes score.
These blasts from the past are necessary to note both that studios have resorted to trickery in the past when it comes to bolstering the reputation of certain titles and that problems with internet-based film criticism are nothing new. The dwindling down of corporations and movie studios controlling the media landscape, though, has exacerbated these problems.
