For most of Wondermajica's existence, I've used two separate rating scales. My main scale was 1-5 stars, used for everything except movies, which used a 1-10 scale. The reason for this? My use of IMDb and its 10 point scale.
However, over the years, this difference has started to feel unnecessary and inconsistent, especially since I no longer use IMDb.
The Change
To simplify things and make my reviews more cohesive, I am switching to a 0-5 star rating system for everything, including movies. This will also include half-star ratings.
Older posts (pre-April 2025) may still use the old rating system. I plan to update them over time, but please be patient with me!
New Rating Scale
💭UR (Unrated): Used for things I couldn't finish or dropped.
💀0 Stars: Extremely rare, but available as an option. The absolute worst - awful, unwatchable, unreadable. Would not recommend under any circumstances
⭐1 Star: Did not like it at all. A struggle to get through, with major issues.
⭐⭐2 Stars: Not great, but had something redeeming. Maybe a few good moments, but overall disappointing.
⭐⭐⭐3 Stars: It was okay. Enjoyable enough, but nothing outstanding.
⭐⭐⭐⭐4 Stars: Really liked it. Solid, memorable, and worth recommending.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐5 Stars: Loved it! A personal favorite - something that truly stood out.
