Average Ratings of All Movies From an Actor/Actress Game Thread

[Omar 382]

I posted in another thread about rating all movies on a scale from 0-5 with half stars for each movie I've seen, and then aggregating the average score for every movie they've been in for a particular actor. I thought we could do this here. It could go two ways; I'll post one first and then the next person can post their individual ratings for that actor, and then name another actor and post that ratings. This is similar to other games we play on here. We could also just post random actors and aggregate their scores and follow the poster-to-poster flow loosely. This could be fun as I would be willing to aggregate the overall ratings of every single actor from every poster.

The third option of course, is no one gives a shit, and no one replies to this thread as no one cares. This seems the most likely course of action.

RULES:

• Give the average rating at the end
• If you saw a movie in its entirety, but didn't rate it at the time, or forget your rating, you can just write NA, or not include it. Don't include it in your average rating calculation obviously
• Only credited performances (i.e. no Sam L. Jackson in Inglorious Basterds)
• TV shows are optional, but you should probably account for the whole series. Therefore, voice cameos in Family Guy don't count, but if you've seen a full series and want to rate it, that's cool
• Go in chronological order of release dates for convenience purposes. You can just type in the actor's name and then "filmography" and go to Wikipedia to find out every movie they've been in
• Only performances as an actor, no directing count (i.e. a movie someone directed, but didn't appear in)
• Rate on a scale from 0-5 with half stars/0-10 without half stars, or 0-5 with no half stars. No bullshit like 8.75/10. That shit drives me crazy. I have always reviewed movies on a 0-5 with half star scale, but any of the approved methods are good
• Round to two decimals in the averages
• If the consensus is to change one of these rules, or add a new one, then let's do it

I will start with three different actors. Here we go:

Michael Shannon:
Groundhog Day: NA
8 Mile: 4/5
Kangaroo Jack: NA

Talk about a thread sky-rocketing. Please slow down with the replies everyone, they're coming in so fast it's a blur and I can't read them!

Too much work. How about some boobs?

I was just about to post some reviews, but realized you didn't state which keyboard buttons could be touched with which fingers. I don't want to fuck this up.

Oh sorry. You're supposed to use your fingers to guide your curly pubic hairs (make sure they're curly- straight ones aren't allowed in this thread) and type your responses

 

[Omar 382]

Also, if you're Episcopalian, you can't reply. You're either Baptist or you're Catholic or you're not Christian- just accept it already Episcopalian's!!!

I'm clean shaven. I'm going to change the rules completely though.

Is the rating for the movie or just for the actors performance?

Lastly, you can't post from a place/area that begins with "New"- I'm looking at you New Jersey, New York, New Hampshire, New Zealand. Stop trying to be so hipster and chic- you're not that new anymore

 

[Gatorchip]

I'm not original... And I'm not going to take the time to look up release dates. Ratings also based on rewatchability. Not going to use real math either. so here goes

Brad Pitt:
12 Monkeys: 4/5
Seven: 2/5
Fight Club: 4/5
Snatch: 4/5
Ocean's Eleven: 4/5
Troy: 3/5
Inglorious Basterds: 4/5
Moneyball: 3/5
Burn After Reading: 3/5
World War Z: 2/5

Average: 3
Brad Pitt: 5 - Best Actor of the generation

I'll watch this thing for a while and see how it flows
But being from New Oklahoma, I'm hesitant to post anything.

Is there some kind of car I can identify???

Another question since clearly I fuckked up my first try.

You said we can only rate 1/2 stars and nothing smaller (i.e. 3.5 not 3.25) but then you also said we have to round to the nearest hundredth (0.01). Why is this important if we are only giving ratings in tenths? Actually only half a tenth since the smallest allowed increment is 0.5?

So if the average ends in 0.26 does that round to 0.5 since our increments are only in 1/2 stars or does it round down to 0.0?

Example:

AVERAGE: 3.25/5

 

[Gatorchip]

Example:

Movie A: 3.5/5
Movie B: 4/5

AVERAGE: 3.25/5

I see. 10 movies (with 1/2 star increments) divided by 10 will always end up in increments of 0.05. There is no rounding. The rules are fucked up.

waitaminute- Seven gets 2/5? wtf is this shit

It's a good movie, but I said I based them also on "rewatchability". It was fun only the first time through.

 

[outofyourmind]

but I said I based them also on "rewatchability"

This is what gets a movie into the ultimate category. A 5/5 or 10/10.
You have to be able to watch it over and over.

Ok this is getting ridiculous. I just received a PM from @Cedrique telling me he'd suck my dick to see Ryan Gosling's rating. Look, I love it when you give me fellatio, Ced, but I have Church tomorrow at 8 AM! Father Rick is letting me give the homily on why euthanasia is immoral and you will go to hell if you do it. I basically am going to say that you need to stop being such a little whiny bitch and endure the pain. You didn't see Jesus ask for morphine up on the cross, did you? And don't give me that "personal choice" BS, because I hear it's hot in hell this time of year, even in December!

oh yeah, coffee and donuts will be served in the hall after Mass, please considering donating to our Boy Scout's
