I just wanted add more proof to this position.
These are the top 9 movies last week. Notice the Rotten Tomatoes ranking. (Based on all movie reviews averaged out)
1 - I Now Pronounce You Chuck And Larry - 14%
2 - Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix - 77%
3 - Hairspray - 93%
4 - Transformers - 57%
5 - Ratatouille - 96%
6 - Live Free or Die Hard - 80%
7 - License To Wed - 8%
8 - 1408 - 76%
9 - Evan Almighty - 24%
It's pretty obvious that the average dope doesn't spend their money the same way the critics would.
