They now base it off of verified movie ticket purchases that rated it positively (3.5 stars or higher). People thought TLJ was review bombed because it had thousands of negative ratings that weren't verified, so if anything the % is more relevant here than with TLJ.

How does the audience ratings go from 6K to 25K and the % refuses to rise or fall even by 1%? Even if everyone who rated it after 86% loved it, you'd think there would be an increase at the very least, unless literally every negative review is being canceled out with a positive one...which is in the realm of probability I'm sure
Tbh, my knowledge of statistics is a little dusty because I havent looked at it in a while. But if there were mostly positive ratings on the first day, then that diminishes the importance of positive ratings. One negative rating drops the percentage much more than one positive rating would raise it. So as one poster pointed out already, you could have a lot more positive votes and not as many negative votes and have the percentage stay fixed.

It is unlikely, sure, but totally within the realm of possibility and the data from other movie rating websites does seem to support it.
