Weird sites, are you crazy? Filmaffinity has more than 500.000 users, is the most popular web of its kind in spanish and is extremelly popular in Spain and South America, just cause you don't know it doesn't mean its a fucking weird place and just cause isn't as mainstream as the US centered Imdb doesn't mean is some kind of underground web, a bunch of movies have more than 150.000 votes and the page itself is arguably better designed than Imdb and getting more and more popular everyday, do yourself a favour and stop being so vocal about your ignorance, also if you want to use Imdb (which represents a more american kind of taste) then fine, the movie has a 6.6 there, which as far as I understand is not exactly a great score for imdb standars, is basically the same score as The Phantom Menace.

Oh yeah but imdb weighs critic scores quite heavily in comparison to user scores, this is actually incredibly obvious if you look at TLJ. Its score there was 7.6 last time I checked, but going through user reviews I counted maybe 3 or 4 positive ones out of about 80 or something. So in the case of Phantom Menace for example, the user reception there is actually probably worse than Bright, because Bright has had to counterbalance a much worse critical reception.

And no, I really don't know this filmaffinity thing and I'm from South America actually. I don't doubt it being big and stuff, but I don't see why you wouldn't use the most mainstream ones rather than only the semi-mainstream or whatever. I have noticed the proportion of TLJ haters seems to be smaller here in Brazil than in the US, but it's still pretty big.

Cause that was a more clear example that many people don't like that movie, seems like americans like it more and still don't think is great, but outside US the movie seems to be considered pretty weak to say the least, which is pretty on par with what critics said. Now I do have to admit I don't think the movie deserves a 29 on metacritic, it does has some interesting concepts and it isn't as absolutely painful as that score would make you think but I still found it pretty bad, it would be like a 4/10 to me. And yeah you live in south america but not on the spanish side.
