Rate Next Week's Film:
• Bucky Larson: Born To Be A Star -- http://micropoll.com/t/KB75rZHqLu
• The Girl Next Door -- http://micropoll.com/t/KB75rZHqME

NEW FEATURE -- FACTOR FACTS: Breaking down the individual components that make up *my* score on the rate-o-matic, these 10 criteria will highlight what I thought about a film in certain areas. A movie like "2001" is high on technical, but low on pacing, whereas a movie like "Avatar" has great visuals, but an average story.

Enjoyment -- How enjoyable is the film?
Story -- Is it interesting, well-written?
Technical -- The editing, directing, and sound.
Acting -- Convincing, or just a script-reader?
Visuals -- Cinematography and special effects.
Impact -- Does it make you laugh/cry/feel?
Pacing -- Not too fast, not too slow...
Validity -- Given the environment, is it believable?
Mood -- Music, costumes, art-design.
Re-Watch -- Good enough to watch twice?

This feature is a work in progress, so expect to see a name-change, or shifting criteria brackets going forward... but if you have input, please share!

Wow, Brad Pitt seems to look kinda old now....

[JPizzle1122]

@IsaTheMovieMaker - And he looks just like Robert Redford, right?

[JPizzle1122]

@MrLowCalorie - Were you under the impression I did every episode of Movie Night unscripted?

[JPizzle1122]

@RoyAndKimble - I'm sorry? Bump myself into what ratings? You don't even know what you're talking about...

[Fuzzywink13]

@JPizzle1122 i don't know either to be honest. well anyway good video keep up the good work jon.

[JPizzle1122]

@Fuzzywink13 - I honestly have no idea why you'd think that.

[Fuzzywink13]

@JPizzle1122 i actualy thought it was unscripted till i saw this comment...

[GOLDRICKINATOR]

do solomon kane u would love it

[MikeJustesenFilms]

Factor Facts is a fantastic idea!

[JPizzle1122]

@apocaRUFF - No, it doesn't make sense to me.

I read all comments. Vote-whoring only makes me want to smack you in the face. Don't do it - because I *won't* reply to it. Ask a regular question, leave a comment. I see them all. I spend a lot of time answering questions, and I pride myself on reading them all.

[apocaRUFF]

@JPizzle1122 Er... it makes perfect sense. He's asking other people to thumbs up his comment, so that you will see it (as he probably thinks that you don't have the time to sift through all your comments). If his comment is one of the "top Comments" then you are more likely to see it, and therefore more likely to remember him asking you a question.

[JPizzle1122]

@johnpavelow - Thumbs up so I remember?

That doesn't make any sense.
