What I genuinely love about this is that a good film can score poorly and a terrible film could score highly. I’d agree with Long Walk scores poorly on the system but is also better than an 11/23.

Not enough chaos on substack.

Yesss Alessandro! That is the best bit of it!! Thanks for commenting :)

I think you're probably right, 11 is harsh considering how much I enjoyed it.

(But also aliens IS a 23/23)

What I love about this is that it’s structured, but still with loads of room for subjectivity. You can assess ‘fun’ either by humour, and cleverness, and silliness, or by how much you enjoyed watching something. Same for sick, and scary. It’s structured but flexible. Anyway I won’t share mine because, as you know, I have a whole spreadsheet.

Share them anyway!!!!!

But yes, absolutely, it's a fantastically subjective system. The flexibility makes it endlessly enjoyable to revisit.

Thanks a lot Jamie! I'm forever grateful to you for engaging with it. Seriously - you're a legend.
