side_streets Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 2 minutes ago, Bat-Fan said: You are predicting it will go under 75, eben with pending reviews? I hope it won't. But some publications such as Pitchfork or AV club don't show a lot of affection to Madonna, but who knows they might change their mind this time. That Uncut review was terrible, but I'm not surprised. Fingers crossed for 80% reviews.
VogueMusic Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 I just can't imagine giving reviews so much power that they dictate what I see or how I feel. I couldn't imagine closing myself off to things, or thinking I 'should' like something because of a bunch of opinions from no one I even know. Not to say constructive critique (particularly from those knowledgeable on the subject) isn't a necessary part of the arts, and word of mouth from people you know and trust is another, but putting so much into it that I no longer think for myself, or allow my own curiosity to drive what I want to see/do/hear/experience...is just, bizarre, to me. And I can't understand why so many fall into that. So many great works have never been understood or liked or approved by 'critics'... what a way to miss out. And some of the stuff constantly praised does absolutely nothing for me. Maybe it's because I've never really been a fan of gatekeepers.
Danmacevents Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 I hadn't even heard of metacritic until last week.
Danmacevents Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 Maybe I'll ask her tonight what score do you hope metacritic will give you?

Great post although I would apply these same sentiments to the charts. I love good reviews for Madonna, but they wouldn’t affect my opinion for one second. American Life and LAP are my faves. One was acclaimed and one was not.

luizotaviobarros Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 From Brazil’s most important newspaper. 4/5 X-Tudo is a large cheeseburger with all sorts of things in it. And Tudo (everything) is sometimes used informally as an adjective, too: Este CD é tudo = This CD is everything.
acko Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 I never heard of people actually using it either, imd and rotten tomatoes 4 series and films is a lot more common.

rocknrolla Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 It's used a lot in Stan wars they can claim she's never had a metacritic score over 90, even though LAP and ROL would have been

It might be wrong thing to do, but a lot of ppl (like most) do it. I mean if smth is rated over 7 = in most instances is considered good and ppl geerally would give it a chance . Plus, for example, the positive hype of A Star Is Born pretty much revived Gs career, though the film was a bore itself. Also, the universal hype of ROL pretty much guaranteed its success.
yououghttavogue Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 If its a high metacritic theres also a chance of Grammy attention. Which i would love to see for Madonna.
Simo9jo Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 I’ve always heard people refer to Rotten Tomatoes for movie scores/reviews, and I feel movies are less subjective than music (although still subjective). Metacritic omits só many important publications and counts some really bullshit ones. People in here are giving it way too much credit.

There are so many good albums and movies that have low or average metacritic scores.
graffitiheart Posted June 13, 2019 Posted June 13, 2019 Meta critic is only used in stan wars? Lol the fuck it, who has time for that shit
