Almost 400 films have a perfect score at Rotten Tomatoes

How many have you seen? This is a real eye-poppeer. I'v only seen about a dozen of them. Elvis starred in one of them!!!

The newer ones mostly seem to be documentaries about gay cowboys eating pudding.

Yes, I noticed that. Many films are about politically correct themes, and reviewers are under death threat not to criticise them.

One that struck me was "Terminator" -- I'm glad it made it. The Elvis picture was "King Creole", "Grey Fox" is also on my favs list, I never thought anyone paid attention.

I've seen about 100. I lost track at some point.

About halfway through the list it starts to fall apart, though. Remember that the 100 score doesn't necessary mean it's the best of the best. Remember how their scoring works.

I avoid movies with perfect or near perfect scores. Rarely ever is any movie so excellent, and if it is, the review is biased toward PC, or the movie is very original or another poor reason.

Art should be rated based on merit and quality, not merely whether it fits some political or social point of view. This undermines a major reason for evaluation of movies.

I don't watch or re-watch movies because of some critic's scorecard. Never have, never will. If some movie I know nothing about receives high marks it might pique my interest enough to track it down but I am capable of making up my own mind about what I enjoy. If I watch a movie and get so much out of it I watch it again (and again) its because I enjoyed it. In the end, that's what matters.
