How to Read This Blog

Welcome to my double-half-handed attempt at a review blog! This is something I've thought about doing for quite some time, since I end up reviewing nearly every movie I see anyways. So I figured, what's stopping me, really? Other than the daunting task of reviewing every movie I can think of.

Yes, that's right. My intention here is not merely to review current films. My intention is to review any and every film. I'll start out with my own personal collection (which is, to say the least, an oddity) and go from there.

I'm not going to bother trying to figure out a fair and/or balanced system of grading every movie on a weighted scale. I'm simply going to give it a take based on what I felt the movie did for me, good or bad. I'll give it a number score, rated from 1 to 10, with 1-3 being a poor-quality, "I really wish I didn't see this" movie; 4-6 being an average, "you could do better, but it's worth the watch" movie; 7-9 being an above-average, definitely recommendable movie; and a 10 being what I consider an obvious winner.

I'm considering extending this system to other things, such as music and video games. I'm not sure yet. We'll figure that out later.

For now, here we are. I hope you'll find this blog useful and insightful, or at least mildly entertaining.
