Big question to you all: How good are you at sticking with your ratings? I'd really like to know your philosophy on this question, I need perspectives.
Background on why I ask: I do not like rating movies because I feel like life is an of constant and perpetual consciousness-building, so while no version of me may ever see E.T. as anything but a four-star/10 of 10/A+ film*, I can certainly see a version thinking more highly of The Wind Will Carry us, which I just saw and didn't much care for. I've adopted a simplified color coding system because it helps in some list-making, showing where I differentiate when considering groups of films, but anything more just seems like too much of a commitment.
*Picked to avoid debating an actual film. It's in my username. It's in my email address. It's everywhere. You don't have to like it, but it's pretty obvious where I stand.
