New Grading System

Hello, dear readers! It's nice to finally be able to blog again.


So here's the deal, we've been thinking about this and we're revising the previous ranking in the grading system. As you all know, we have the Stages of Beauty, and that won't be changed. Every range of score will exactly be the same from 'Ugly Duckling' to 'Royal Swan' to keep up with our avian concept.


Alright, we all know now that the movies reviewed are all based on five categories, which are PLOT, PERFORMANCE, VISUAL, MUSIC and SCRIPT WRITING. All of them carries the weight of 20% EACH and adds up to a total score of 100%, the overall score of the movie. 


Now, we are introducing new weights for the categories. The categories will be five and nothing's changed, but the weight they carry will be fixed. We feel that there's a little injustice so we're presenting you the changed and (we hope) a better weight. Here's the weight we've been using before, listed below:


PERFORMANCE:  20%   
PLOT: 20%   
SCRIPT WRITING: 20%
VISUALS: 20%
MUSIC: 20%


We're now presenting you the new grading system, the new weighing of the categories for the categories:

PERFORMANCE:  25%  

PLOT: 25%  

SCRIPT WRITING: 20%

VISUALS: 20%

MUSIC: 10%

All of the percentages will add up to 100%, thus the final overall score of the movie will be created. We feel that this new one is more fair and more adjusted to the whole thing. It fits better and we feel that it's more reasonable. If you have any suggestion, you all are welcome to say something by commenting this post below. Thank you.
