cookie Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 (edited) Since most of us are starting or about to start reviewing I figured it’s time to launch the aggregate thread. The points system is based on Metacritic’s grading system: http://www.metacritic.com/about-metascores On a five-star scale, each star represents twenty points. The average, based on the accumulated points divided by the number of reviews, is on a scale of 1-100. More than 60 points indicates a POSITIVE consensus, with 81+ meaning the film has received universal acclaim. Between 40 and 60 points indicates a MIXED consensus. If a film receives a three-star out of five review, that review will count as mixed since it is worth 60 points. Lower than 40 points indicates a NEGATIVE consensus, with 19 or lower meaning the film has received universal disdain. As a bonus, a film that has received only two or less mixed or negative reviews will receive a CERTIFIED FRESH marker. For convenience sake I’ll include all aggregate scores in this post. Aggregate scores are not final until all reviewers have given their ratings. The first post will be updated at least once every other day. _________________________________________________________________________ January Mostly Human - 43 (6 reviews: 1 positive, 4 mixed, 1 negative) Bloody Mary -

It's up next on @4815162342's docket. And unless you crippled the film in the re-editing process you can expect a positive review from me.
