You may have noticed in my recent reviews like of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie and Disney's Tarzan, I made a little update to my review formula where, at the end of each segment, I reveal their rating before moving onto the next.

The reason why I did so was to experiment if that can help with keeping viewers engaged throughout the videos so that there is a buildup to what will ultimately be the final score that is revealed in the end. However, now that you've gotten a taste of that, I'd like to know what you think.

I made this poll to determine if you'd like the update to stay so that it will show up in the next reviews, or if you'd rather I'd go back to how it was before the change. Feel free to also comment if that did help get you more into the reviews as they play or if that took you out of it. I'd love to know what you thought of it. At the very least, it was worth experimenting to see what would happen in order to improve my craft.

The only criticism I would make is that showing the scores again at the end of the review feels redundant. So if you’re going to keep doing this then I would recommend just going right to the final score at the end rather than showing each score twice

I couldn’t agree more!

I say keep. Because there were quite a few times in the past when I was racking my brain on what rating a certain category got. So this new update will put my mind at ease a bit.

Idk because that would completely change the end format hes been using since 2009

Wasn’t a fan of how it was used with The Super Mario Galaxy Movie review, but it’s grown on me starting with the Tarzan review. I’d say keep it, but maybe don’t repeat the scores at the end. If you still want to build up the final score while still keeping the music you use for each score such as the game over Sonic music for 3/10 or 4/10 scores or the Super Smash Bros music for 9/10 or 10/10 scores, maybe do something different with that like having a curtain pull back to reveal the score similar to the curtain draw effect for your Honorable Mention(s) intro or just a static shot of the poster of the film you’re reviewing as the music builds up to the reveal of the final score. Just some suggestions. 🤷‍♂️
