I base my understanding of 'how reviews, ratings, upvotes, social media, and blogs work on the internet' on many years of practical experience making a living online in the niche (in mainstream and adult). There is a good reason why Mountain Dew almost ended up with a new flavor named " Hitler Did Nothing Wrong" and the Danube almost had a bridge named after Steven Colbert.

If you believe the public controls perception on the internet... you are in the wrong line of work.

You base "the fact" that reviews were rigged on:
a) the fact that you did not like the movie
b) the fact that rigging happens
That only says that it was POSSIBLE that reviews were rigged. While you present it as a fact.
What's more - lets say you liked the movie and thought it was great, greater than 2010 odyssey etc. Then you would not advocate rigging that much because you would agree with the rating higher than oddysey (because you yourself would think that).
So yeah, fact that YOU did not like the movie has a big part in your thinking that reviews were rigged. You completely ignore possibility that people could actually like the movie that YOU personally did not like...
