| Topic | TIL Jackie Chan and Rush Hour essentially birthed the website Rotten Tomatoes |
| Jagr_68 05/16/21 6:02:15 PM #1: | Rotten Tomatoes was launched on August 12, 1998, as a spare-time project by Senh Duong.[11] His objective in creating Rotten Tomatoes was "to create a site where people can get access to reviews from a variety of critics in the U.S".[12] As a fan of Jackie Chan, Duong was inspired to create the website after collecting all the reviews of Chan's Hong Kong action movies as they were being released in the United States. The catalyst for the creation of the website was Rush Hour (1998), Chan's first major Hollywood crossover, which was originally planned to release in August 1998. Duong coded the website in two weeks and the site went live the same month, but the release of Rush Hour was delayed until September 1998. So Jackie Chan is vicariously responsible for the review bombing phenomenon, Zack Snyder Cuts, and bought Disney review conspiracies lol. --- New York Rangers [2004-2008] https://media.giphy.com/media/WvQHBYW0q4TuxdAg61/giphy.gif https://psnprofiles.com/Jaromiroquai68 ...
