This was lost after some house cleaning on my other site. So, I've reposted it.
Ratings on this website will attempt to follow a rational and meaningful system of evaluation and quantification. There will be two systems. One system will follow a number-name system between -3 and +3 with no fractions and only a theoretical zero. The second system will be identical in substance, but since everyone on earth rates movies using stars we will condescend to a star based system. from 0 to 5 stars using only whole stars. The meanings and terminology of the system are outlined below:
| Number- Name | Stars (movie) | Descriptor | Meaning | Success |
| +3 | 5 | Very superior, fantastic | A Z-score of greater than +2 or 2.275 % of all things of this nature. (98th and 99th percentile) | STRONGLY SURPASSED Revolutionary qualities and others better start taking notice. |
| +2 | 4 | Quality, very good, excellent, | A Z-score of between +1and +2 or 13.590 % of all things of this nature. (between 84th and 97th percentile) | SURPASSED Has surpassed expectations with unique and innovative qualities |
| +1 | 3 | Legit, good, alright | A Z-score of between 0 and +1 or 34.135% of all things of this nature. (between 50th and 83rd percentile) | STRONG PASS Has met expectations with general satisfaction |
| 0 | "2 1/2" | The theoretical average | This is the theoretical average point. A grade of zero will not be given. Iit has no real existential value. Have you ever had the average wine? | |
| -1 | 2 | Not impressive, has problems | A Z-score of between 0 and -1 or 34.135 % of all things of this nature. (between 16th and 49th percentile) | WEAK PASS Did not meet all expectations, but has certain redeeming qualities |
| -2 | 1 | Junk, bad, not good | A Z-score of between -1and -2 or 13.590 % of all things of this nature. (between 2nd and 15th percentile) | MARGINAL FAIL with no redeeming qualites (wine would be rejected) |
| -3 | 0 | *@#^&# | A Z-score of less than -2 or 2.275 % of all things of this nature. (0th and 1st percentile) | SEVERE FAIL Has qualities, but they are bad. This was a step in the wrong direction |
The Z-score is a statistical tool. If you decided to sleep through your statistics course or have simply forgotten what it all means please check this website for a brief refresher:
