Screening log

EXCESSIVELY GEEKY EXPLANATION OF GRADES
10 — Year best contender and possible all-time favorite. Have watched the film repeatedly and it holds up to that.
9 — Annual top 10 contender, with no significant flaws. Highest grade a film can receive on first view.
8 — Warmly recommended and would happily watch again now. Sometimes a Top 10 contender with one major flaw.
7 — Solid. Recommended but would not be overwhelmed by grief if I were legally barred from ever seeing again.
6 — Recommended in net, but multiple significant flaws, or disappoints in some significant way.
5 — Mixed. Good points and bad points in about equal measure. Sometimes just one horrific, nails-on-blackboard flaw.
4 — Not recommended in net, but has multiple significant virtues or features that make me doubt my skeptical reaction.
3 — Little to recommend, usually has only basic competence going for it. Rarely doubt my negative reaction.
2 — A painful experience. Fundamentally misconceived by talented folk or hampered by basic incompetence.
1 — I couldn’t wait to leave the theater. No significant virtues or cause for enjoyment or productive thought.
0 — A film whose very existence is an offense to all that is good and right. Would happily burn the last existing copy.
To be perfectly honest, the grades 0-2 also are significantly affected by the wholly subjective “how much did this film piss me off” factor.

(These films are all films I watched on video in March, April and May in the context of starting the project of converting all my 1,000+ movies on VHS to DVD. During the day I decided to devote to updating my screening log for … (gulp) almost a year … unlike some of the other V-titles, I could not figure out the exact viewing date on these films from my Twitter feed or from movie tickets, which both have dates printed on them. I certainly remembered watching them and some details of the circumstances … e.g. I watched SISTERS and ABRE LOS OJOS off the same tape on the same day I built myself a new bookcase, say, and the three WW2 films back-to-back. But no date will come.)
