    Why does Tribute write this every week? They have the box office numbers on the home page. If we were interested, we would look there. And the Tribute star rating counts for nothing, since people can vote over and over again. It’s not limited. One person can vote a movie up to 4 or 5 stars, so who cares what the rating is?
