Not surprised.

Everyone thinks everything is bad on the internet.
But I, that am not shaped for sportive tricks
Nor made to court an amorous looking-glass;
I, that am rudely stamped, and want love's majesty
To strut before a wanton ambling nymph.

Wait, how is this decided? Just curious.

Not really indicative of much, I'd say. The "internet" also said the Malibu was a bad car yet they sold to the tunes of the hundreds of thousands a year. There's a gap in who's reporting and reality of any sort of base.

Yet Gamera has a 99.5% approval rating.

Yeah, I think this little comparison is all we need to gauge the merits of these ratings.

Goes to show the obvious problem with a poll conducted in this way. Would 99-100% of respondents even know what Gamera is? Godzilla remains something everyone knows, whether they can actually pick out Godzilla's design(s) or anything of that nature.

Well I think these are worth keeping in mind:

The Beatles
http://www.whatdoestheinternetthink.net ... %20beatles

The Black Eyed Peas
http://www.whatdoestheinternetthink.net ... yed%20peas

Ramones (personal bias, but they're generally considered classic or at least important)
http://www.whatdoestheinternetthink.net/?s=ramones

Lady Gaga
http://www.whatdoestheinternetthink.net/?s=lady%20gaga

Socialists (we're a pretty chill bunch, mostly)
http://www.whatdoestheinternetthink.net/?s=socialists

Though that last one's not too surprising, considering the bad rap we've gotten thanks to failed attempts such as the USSR and the PRC. But that's a discussion for another thread.

Pretty sure there isn't anything to this except randomized percentages.

I have a feeling that most of it has to do with the American movie. That is assuming that these aren't just bs results ;) .

No, I looked up the American Godzilla movie on the website, it was 100 percent negative

Jesus...The Rolling Stones have a 72% negative? That tears it, these ratings are absolute bullshit. On the other hand, I'm glad they rated higher than the Beatles (I do like their work, just personally think it is overrated, expecially when compared to the Stones, the Yardbirds, and others).

EDIT: Apparently, Eric Clapton scores 98.2% positive, so not everyone is a total moron. :huge:
