Artist Teresa Tobat has created an excellent and informative movie ratings chart. The infographic takes film trilogies and compares their meta scores per movie from IMDB users and film critics.
The result showcases interesting patterns, specifically that both critic and users scores drop with each consecutive installment in the franchise. Examples of this include Rush Hour, Shrek and the Blade trilogy. Another common pattern seen in this movie ratings chart is a good first installment followed by middling second installment before a much more acclaimed third installment, like with The Lord of the Rings and Hannibal.
This movie ratings chart is accompanied by charming eight-bit illustrations of one or two characters from each film trilogy. There are illustrations of Spiderman, Hannibal Lector, Marty McFly and Doc Brown and more.
