My issue with RT is that a film could be simply slightly underwhelming for everyone who reviewed it and it would still get a 0%. Or a film could be just above average for everyone and get 100%. It's no indication of whether a movie is actually good, but people treat it like it's the hallmark of quality. It needs to not be a binary system and have a middle ground.

IMDB ratings are fan votes, so they're relatively worthless. I remember when people were downvoting movies in the Top 250 just so they could make The Dark Knight reach #1. It's still in the #4 slot.
