Sleeper hit vs. box office flop vs. ‘Rotten Tomatoes’. For art’s sake vs. is that porn or what? Oscars vs. BAFTA vs. Golden Globes, Sundance vs. Cannes. And by the way, the Razzies and MTV Movie Awards. Let the world’s Roger Eberts weed out the bad from the good, but remember, we all like to score.
