I think you may not be familiar with what barking up the wrong tree looks like:

I'm not saying everyone should necessarily like it, just that it deserves some amount of respect. Audience score of 80% combined with a tomato score that isn't total garbage is probably a sign that there's something the movie is doing right in there. I'd sooner trust a high audience score and a poor tomatometer than the reverse, in any case.
I clearly was pointing out that not everyone shares your sentiment, namely me, someone who actually is stuck doing lame-ass write-ups for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I kept it short and sweet because people like you - sorry - people who are exactly you - always feel the need to crusade stupidly for people to give a shit about something about which they don't give a shit. There are 100 movies here, and my downtime at work is not long enough for me to give every film the treatment I gave Supers-man I-IV. I don't have the interest in fixing something I absolutely did not like. And not only me, but many other people as well.
I absolutely have no problem with some fun discussion like I got on the Superman IV write-up. I really enjoyed that. I don't enjoy discussion that continues in these threads after I say:

I mean, I'm clearly not a fan and I had to do a write-up because it was nominated.
"Yeah, but you should give the movie respect! Despite no motivation to write up a movie you don't like at all, you must somehow put it on equal footing with a franchise where you have a lot to say."
The discussion on Me No Likey the Movie should have ended a while ago. I can't give a shit about every film that gets listed here. In fact, as opposed to Howard the Duck, I said, "We probably have to embrace the B-movie nature of this film because it won't work to change it." Which, you know, was in the write-up. Then I gave a couple quick recasts and a new exec producer because I was trying to move on. Unless you are really offended that I removed Hoagy Carmichael or whatever her name was from April O'Neil.
I don't like the movie, man. And I gave it an equal amount of respect as my favorite movies on this list because I included it.
There are like 90 films that will get - in my estimation - nice, detailed write-ups. This is not one of them.
