Basically the only way you can give a score is to prove you bought a ticket to see it, and to combat review bombing.
Rotten Tomatoes has officially dropped its traditional Audience Score in favor of a new “verified ratings Popcornmeter” system which will only measure ratings from fans who have actually purchased tickets through Fandango (owner of Rotten Tomatoes).
The announcement marks the first major change to Rotten Tomatoes since back in 2019 following the Captain Marvel controversy when Rotten Tomatoes dropped the audience “Want To See Feature.”
Now when users go to Rotten Tomatoes, they will see the “Popcornmeter” instead of the “Audience Score.”
That’s not all, as Rotten Tomatoes has also revamped how it makes scores available, which depends on the movie’s box office estimate (see below). No longer will scores be made available right away with a limited number of reviews or ratings available.
