Hello. It is I, Matt Brown… The one they call “Matt Brown.”

Who are you and what are you doing here? This is a website I created to keep track of my various collections: movies I’ve seen and want to see, and art books and albums I own. There’s no reason it should interest you except maybe to see the grades I assign to the movies and albums. If you are interested in that, for some reason, here is my grading system:

10 = This is as good as a work of art can get. You need to experience it if you care about art.
9 = This is excellent. Highly recommended.
8 = Very good. Worth seeking out.
7 = Solidly good. You won’t regret it.
6 = Better than most. Not a waste of time.
5 = Pretty bad. Possibly well-intentioned, but a failure.
4 = Bad. Skippable, despite a few positives.
3 = Very bad. Don’t waste your time.
2 = Terrible. Avoid it at all costs.
1 = Absolutely abysmal and irredeemable in all aspects. Might actually be entertaining it’s so utterly horrible, but more likely it’s just soul-depleting.

Thanks for accidentally stopping by!
