indicates that I saw the film projected in some kind of theatrical setting.

indicates that I had seen the film previously in its entirety.

indicates that I had previously walked out of the film (see W/O).

Ratings are on a needlessly precise 100-point scale.

An entry beginning with "W/O" in lieu of a numeral indicates that I stopped watching after seeing exactly 1/3 of the film's stated running time. (NOTE: Used to be two reels or 40 minutes for every film; now varies—longer films get more time.) This doesn't necessarily mean that I despised the film, but clearly I felt there was no compelling reason to stick around.

"[~]" after a film title indicates that I saw an unfinished version (e.g., score not finalized; not yet color-corrected; end credits missing; opticals incomplete, or any other deviations from the final release).

Films numbered "sXX" are short films (fewer than 45 minutes long).

An entry beginning with "INC" in lieu of a numeral indicates that I was unable to finish watching the film for reasons beyond my control, e.g. mechanical failure, medical emergency, movie not even finished yet, etc.

Jump to the last five.
