Examining My Consistency
Last night before I watched The Matrix, I went through the archives and looked at many of the posts where I have posted a movie rating. After the first couple of reviews, I realized that I tended to have my scores fall into one of three categories: movies that I enjoyed and bought, movies that I hated and would never go near again, and then movies that were entertaining but not really worth a purchase. As it turns out, over the 4+ years of posting, my scale has stayed pretty consistent. Anything over an 8 I’ve gone to get on DVD, anything in the 7-ish range are the border cases, then anything below that I haven’t bought on DVD. I think one of my upcoming additions to this site will be a collection of all the scores I’ve ever given just so I have that record and don;t need to result to searches in order to be able to fine my score for a given movie.
The last day of Quakecon was fun, and I’m now rightfully posting again from my soon to be upgraded computer. That purchase will likely happen Monday, everything should arrive by Thursday or Friday, and then next weekend can be my big upgrade party. Well, it probably won’t be as much as a party as it will be a whole lot of complaining and sanity questioning, but at least that will provide some good post material for those days.
