"Four ever European"

As I mentioned before, it ought to say 'Film Score' on the pages instead of 'Review Score', but I've got a bigger query/request now.

Am I right in thinking that there is no way of seeing all the films that one has scored (rather than those which one has also reviewed) in order? Assuming so, would there be any way that this could be added?

My reason for asking is that for a while I have wanted to regauge my scoring. Once the descriptions of the scores were removed at my request (since the middle three were essentially the same), I have scored with 3 being the baseline, giving this to films which were just about worth making. This would be a reasonable strategy were it not for the fact that I tend to view films very positively and thus think better than this of almost all of them. This means that the vast majority of my scored films are squashed into 4 and 5. I'd like to make 2 my baseline, with 1 being bad and 0 ethically objectionable or Dragonheart. However, I am unwilling to start applying this as it is unfair to the films I have already scored.

So, I'd really appreciate it were this ever possible. It would also be good to be able to see this list on anybody's page, as it would be interesting to see others' score spreads.

I think this is what you want, Sal. Go to My Reviews, and look up at the tan lozenge-shaped options. One of them says: Review Score. This will re-display your pages in the order of how highly you've scored them. Click the option again to reverse the order i.e. high-2-low or low-2-high. Then just do a search for any particular film on any particular page and you can change your score.

Another option is to call up the film in question. Your own score is displayed at the top under the film name, and you can change your score then and there.

Click on 'Unreviewed Films' (left centre of Your Page) and select 'Scored Only'.

Is this what you want?

Yes, almost. Although the link is 'Unreviewed Films', the 'Scored only' option does cover all films (and one can also see all one's reviewed films etc.). I'd really like it to list the films in score order, as I want to regauage them consistently, but it's certainly a lot better than nothing. Thanks.

I'm surprised to see that I have only scored 468; I would have thought it would have been more (especially bearing in mind that over 100 of those I have seen this year).

You can also click on the "Flagged Films" link, then click on Scored Films (or whatever other filtering method you want) from there. It has the same end result as clicking on "Unreviewed Films" except that I find it quicker as it doesn't have to go through a list of 16,000 films to get there.
