The first thing I need after reading a book, playing a game, or watching a movie is a pen and paper so I can write down my thoughts (which I probably should do while I’m doing it) to determine if the experience was good, bad, or alright.
For all my reviews on the website, we utilize a five to one ranking system. This system I feel is fair and encompasses all of the different aspects of the product without a fully bias opinion. That being said, let’s get on to the ranking system.
Note: though these might not be accurate to the review they are of the quality in which they are posted.
1-Star Ranking – Total Garbage: This is reserved for projects that are the worst of the worst. They lack character, passion, talent, quality, and above all entertainment. Products of this variety deserve to be mocked and shamed into the deepest darkest depths of oblivion never to be seen or heard from again. Note: low budget doesn’t automatically translate into a 1-Star nor does bad.
Here are some of our 1-Star ranked:
- Book: The Cartel, Artemis Fowl, The Trophy Wife, Incredible Hulk vs. Venom, Venomverse
- TV: Batwoman, She-Hulk: Attorney at Law, Naomi, Velma, The Devil is a Part-Timer!
- Film: Zombie Ass: Toilet of the Dead, Birdemic: Shock and Terror, Halloween Ends
2-Star Ranking – Could’ve Been Better: This is for those products that tend to have great concepts that just don’t quite hit the mark. They’re entertaining enough and there’s some quality but perhaps its bad writing decisions here and there, or maybe bad CGI was implemented when practical would’ve worked better. This is where more money, a better writer, a better actor, or better direction could’ve made a superior product.
Here are some of our 2-Star ranked:
- Book: Fallen, The List, Aliens: Out of the Shadows, Aliens: The Female War, DragonBall Super
- TV: She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, Supergirl, Birds of Prey, Painkiller Jane, Vampire Knight
- Game: Saints Row: The Third, Resident Evil 6, Halo Infinite, Friday the 13th: The Game, Fallout 76
- Film: Day Shift, Black Panther, Wonder Woman 1984, Howling II: …Your Sister is a Werewolf
3-Star Ranking – Solid Entertainment: A project doesn’t have to be the best to be good. As long as the engagement and entertainment is there, along with a decent amount of quality and direction, it’s good. These are the type of projects you experience once and every blue moon you go back to experience again.
Here are some of our 3-Star ranked:
- Book: Starship Troopers, Star Wars: The Approaching Storm, Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Pink
- TV: Once Upon a Time, Futurama, Wolf Blood, The Legend of Korra, The Witcher
- Game: Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order, Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag, Turok
- Film: The Fifth Element, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, Prey, Fight Club, WALL-E
4-Star Ranking – Top 10 Worthy: This ranking is for those who are good enough to be remembered. Whenever there’s a top to list of the best, these are reserved for.
Here are some of our 4-Star ranked:
- Book: The Death of Superman, The Hunger Games, Salem’s Lot, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
- TV: Russian Doll, Extraordinary Attorney Woo, Samurai Champloo, Archer, Invincible
- Game: Resident Evil 4, Pokemon Legends: Arceus, Life is Strange, Fallout 4, Batman: Arkham City
- Film: Edge of Tomorrow, Room, Collateral, Inside Out, The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers
5-Star Ranking – Best of the Best: These products stand the test of time and are considered the best. They’re deep, entertaining, thought provoking, and want you to come back again and again to experience them. They may not be best of the year, but they are top contenders.
Here are some of our 5-Star ranked:
- Book: Ama, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Saga, A Game of Thrones, The Fault in Our Stars
- TV: Doctor Who, Stranger Things, Game of Thrones, Z Nation, Harley Quinn
- Game: The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Horizon Zero Dawn, Tales from the Borderlands
- Film: The Fault in Our Stars, Captain America: Civil War, The Matrix Reloaded, Aliens
