All Things Superman: An Open Discussion - - - Part 68

[Bran-El]

I'm actually laughing at myself for refreshing that review thread like crazy... The spoilers are SO there and yet I don't feel spoiled with the way it's written.

I had one of those days where I needed a light moment. This is perfect.

Sounds like she was talking about MOS though. #embargo means she can't talk about Man of steel otherwise she probably mentions it.

There is a difference between using a score to supplement your thoughts on a film, and just using numbers imo.

I like MoS better then TDK. It was a 9.5 and TDK was 9. That tells me nothing really.

Yes, we use the increments to show better ... but really goes into that #. What differentiates 9.5 & 9 ... and how did you come up with it?

When I think about tv shows and people ask to rate them ... or seasons ... it's so ridiculous ... um, it's an 8.5 ... a 9 ... a 8.0 ... after a while it's like you're just giving out random #s.

1 to 4 stars is easier to judge ... the 1-10 is just a mess at times.

So you/she is saying the studio doesn't believe in it?

This is a 2 1/2 star post.




And yeah, agree 100%. What in the world do the increments actually mean?

MoS sucks.

Well ...

 

[Bran-El]

To all lying reviewers:

Good one.

 

[DarthSkywalker]

Well ...

The first of many.

Actually I think it deserves about 1 1/2 ... pretty poor effort and very rushed. haha.

Yep, that's what I thought. Doesn't mean she didn't like it.

<enter overreaction to cryptic twitter comments mode> Can someone on Twitter ask her? Bad news if she didn't think the movie was good, this would be the first proper critic feedback.

whenever its a number grade, I usually just convert it to a letter grade. So 7/10 would be 70% or a C. 9/10 90% A-, 9.5/10 95% A. Makes it easier for me to gauge the review.

I am a fanboy of yours. That adds an extra star.

Skyfall had a leaked good review-and that helped the hype along. The thing about reviews, is that the first review kind of gets the ball started, so to speak. So I want a nice jerk who likes the movie to break the embargo

 

[kendalag]

The first of many.

I probably won't be here when the reviews become more readily available ... but I can imagine the reaction to the first negative review or two ...

I'm sure it will be something like it was with Batman.

And then someone tells you that a 5/10 means it is average.

And lets be honest. What is the different between a 7 and 7.5?

As someone who does lurk around the bodybuilding.com forums, I can tell you that the Misc section there is a joke. It is pretty much literally the troll sub-forum. No one should give that guy or his review an once of credibility.

Barely average and Average.....t:

IDK, that's just how I look at it. Not saying I like that rating system.
