Jason KingMy Scoring is Changing!!!

The New Revolution of Salty is HERE :)

The time has come for me to succumb to a more suitable scoring technique for my film reviews.
This has been a long time coming and has been nibbling at my mind for weeks. The prices of film tickets are constantly fluctuating and with the release of DIGITAL 3D the general price of a movie ticket will soon be $20-. If I am going to score a film out of $20- I might as well score it out of 10.
So from now on - all films will be rated out of 10. No 11's or higher. Just 0 to 10.
I couldn't find a good image for "change of score" so instead you can all laugh at a pic of me a friend did with an Iphone Application.
Goodbye $$ scoring - I will miss you

Get into it - it's a quick review with a number. Most of my friends ask me "how much did you rate this film?" etc

So that's not your haircut? Shame, it suits you
I've never really scored movies in the whole fifteen years I've been film reviewing ... I felt it was too constrictive. Hang on, I did for a short while, when I was film reviewer for rushTV.com ...
It was very Y-Gen-centric and went something like:
***** = rocks!
**** = cool
*** = good
** = average
* = sucks!
Pretty ordinary really ...

Yeah - out of 5 stars suited me also - but I thought ten gives it me a broader scoring system. I do like giving it a score first, then working backwards as to why. I have some great friends that like to question me and help get to my decision - as do most on Orble when they disagree, Bryn
Have a good one!

The pricing review would be tricky.....which is why I never bother - although now that I'm back on orble again maybe I might start scoring films??
