THE ENTERTAINMENT MARKET
Underworld 4 (can't decide C- or D+...have we had a discussion on exactly what these grades mean to each of us?)
For me, "C" is the starting point...it's a movie that wasn't a waste of time for me. In other words, it's a movie that I enjoyed enough that it did not make me wish I had those two hours back. It did its job to entertain me, and that's that. "B" movies entertained me or involved me, and might bear a repeat viewing or two. "A" movies absolutely engaged me, thrilled me, stirred me, left me wanting more. And there are the + - shadings in between.
"D" movies I felt "meh" about; I could have spent my time doing other things, but they weren't a complete waste of time. "E" movies I should not have watched and I would actively encourage others not to do the same. "F" movies signal the end of the world.
