Seems like they recently updated their Policy. https://www.fandango.com/policies/privacy-policy

They now Suggest using this form to request Use of the api https://www.rottentomatoes.com/help_desk/proposalform

Please note that at this time we no longer support unauthorized use of our data (e.g. unofficial projects, non-user facing data integrations).

This could be whats causing the issue

yeah they got rid of their free API. We should remote the plugin.

I know letterboxd is working on an API, would even be useful to switch to that? Now, while my python is not great I am positive someone in the community could make this work. Just an idea though
