searching for DVD reviews at RT
i apologize if this thread does not belong here so i'd be appreciative if the mods were to point me in the right direction.
ever since Rotten Tomatoes redesigned their site, it's become difficult for me to search for the dvd reviews of the movies that i am looking up. i used to do this with ease but i can't seem to even find the link for the dvd of a movie that i am interested in now.
am i doing something wrong here? i'd be appreciative if someone helps me out here.
thank u

If there is a trick that makes finding what you're looking for easy on RT now I haven't found it either. The redesign isn't really that bad, but their search engine is just plain broken. Searching a movie title usually just brings up a bunch of junk and rarely the main movie page. Search "Invasion" and it's painfully obvious something is jacked.
Well, there is a feedback thread on their forum and this was posted, so hopefully they will get this sorted soon.

Hey everyone,
Just to let you guys know, I spoke with our developers and had a look at some mockups of changes we'll be making, and you'll be happy to know that they address some of the concerns you all have had concerning movie pages. Among the changes I saw were the re-addition of a View All function for reviews, larger blurb font and more comprehensive info on movie pages, and of course, a return to our original search functionality.
We had some database problems that threw us backwards about a week or so ago, so the past week has mostly been spent trying to increase site stability and improve performance. Now we are ready to focus on these individual issues, so we'll be implementing these updates as they are completed. Thanks for all your patience!
