Both are Fake positions. There are no exact criteria for judging food or movies! But I'll pick being a food critic and get to eat for free since there are no good movies to watch anymore.

30 years ago I would play 1 chance at bat for the Tigers . Now I'm barely qualified to be a bat boy .

Would you rather be in the Lion's organization or Tigers?

Lions - I'd know what to expect, a losing season and zero percent possibility of making the super bowl, so no disappointment if you set your expectations correctly.
