Did they also go and change it to not show the ratings when they're too low? I looked through a bunch of stuff and couldn't find anything below 57%, but saw a lot of stuff with the rating just plain missing.

Ratings were weird anyway. Every single kids show had 2 stars. It was funny.

You have proof they didn't? Present sources to back up your claims or get out.

No, you cannot go in here and try to make big claims like that without providing sources. Back it up or shut it up.

Probably changed it because Iron Fist was going to bomb and they wanted a perfect Marvel record or something.

I like the new system. A five star rating system is too overwhelming. I'm not a professional critic; I don't know how to decide if a movie was 4 star-quality or simply a 3. But thumbs-up or thumbs-down? I got that no problem.

No idea. I never knew there was another system for them. I just heard that was the reasoning behind netflix.

They should remove the dislike bar, especially since a controversial series is coming this month and the first thing people are gonna do is spam the dislike without watching it first hand.

I mean it does make sense. It's easier to click a thumbs up if its good or a thumbs down if its bad, then it is to be a "critic" and deciding if the film is worth an 1-5 rating. Hell even on the IMDB 1's and 10's tend to be the most dominate votes anyways because most people vote in extremes to either hurt or help the rating if they think the movie/tv show.

You have proof they didn't? Present sources to back up your claims or get out.

Actually, the burden of proof lies with you, since you are the one who claimed it was due to Schumer.

So where is your proof?

Holy shit it is so bad. It reminds me of those YouTube videos where TV shows are given '90s openings.

What if I liked it but didn't looooove it? I liked the stars. It will probably make me rate less if I'm not sure to vote just "yes" or "no".

This article from over a year ago proves it wasn't because of Amy Schumer's recent special. It's more related to their deal for Adam Sandler movies...
