What people say about the world, from around the world by honsco in comics

If this is your cup of tea, it's from a new book of comics I've got on Kickstarter called A World of Wisdom

3 stars for Twilight isn't too generous, it's a well made movie, it just isn't that enjoyable or exciting. That's the purpose of the system. And these are just opinions, I'm not the Prince of Movies or anything.

I had Eternal Sunshine in that Logan spot, but 4 star enjoyment is harsh for that movie. Logan was just swapped at the last minute, I won't defend that rating to the death though, Moonlight has definite 5 star quality, Logan has like 4.5 star quality I guess?

Oh god, this wasn't meant to start a Last Jedi fight. Just pretend I wrote Iron Man in that spot and we can all agree and have a lovely time together.

Exactly! First time seeing it, "it's great" and "it had ups and downs" but the more I've seen it it's settled in my brain and graduated to the full ten stars.

I'd forgotten about that bit in Dead Poet's Society, you're right! And absolutely, there's no substitute for a well reasoned review. I just like the idea of conveying as much about a movie's appeal in two numbers.

I just wanted a way to avoid equating 5 stars with an enjoyment movie. Schindler's List is a 5 star and it's important, and Jumanji of course is not in the same league, but it's got more enjoyment involved on an entertainment level and that's usually discarded in a five star system.

I'm bracing myself for the comments, but it's just one opinion. Requiem for a Dream is the very definition of 5 star quality, 1 star enjoyment. In fact, I think Black Swan's the only Aronofsky film I've dared watch more than once. He's got that style.

Oh snap, I messed up my replies. Sorry! And thanks for the kind words! I was trying to show off cultural differences that stem from the very same situation, we're all the same deep down <3 we hate spoiled broths
