Okay, let\u2019s get serious about The Flintstones - because apparently that\u2019s how the world has decided we must judge this 1994 live-action adaptation. Is there a silent majority that thinks this movie is good and has the internet\u2019s echo chamber fed the Tomatometer in this instance? Can we all at least agree that Halle Berry and Kyle MacLachlan are STUNNING in their prehistoric pelts? And how do The Contrarians actually feel about The Flintstones? It\u2019s all in this Real Talk segment!
