Rotten Tomatoes Is Wrong (A Podcast from Rotten Tomatoes)

Why do fans love some Rotten films and hate some Fresh ones? What did critics make of a cult classic before it earned its cult status? In this bi-weekly podcast, hosts Jacqueline Coley, Mark Ellis, and guests go deep and settle the score on some of the most beloved – and despised – movies and TV shows ever made, directly taking on the statement we hear from so many fans: “Rotten Tomatoes is wrong.”

    166: Series Finale

    The time has come for us at the 'Rotten Tomatoes is Wrong' podcast family to say, "so long, farewell."When this podcast premiered in September of 2020, we wanted to shed a light on some of the films that may have been maligned by critics at the time. We wanted to cover the movies that, after watching them, made us think, "That was awesome!" or "That was such a good movie!" only to see that said film had a Rotten rating on the Tomatometer.Inspired by our book, Rotten Movies We Love, we set out to defend audience favorites and cult classics such as 'Sister Act 2,' 'Hocus Pocus,' and 'The Mummy.'After four years of fighting the good fight, Mark and Jacqueline are joined by Producers Lucy Bruckner and Brian Perez, and Mr. "Two Minutes with Tim" himself, Tim Ryan, to look back at some of their favorite moments and guests over the years, talk about their favorite films we covered, and discuss which films we wish we had the chance to defend: 'Eddie and the Cruisers II,' anyone?This podcast would not have been possible without the fans. We are so appreciative of the community we created and the support we received from you each and every week.Thank you from everyone here at 'Rotten Tomatoes is Wrong,' and in case we don’t see you... good afternoon, good evening, and good night!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
