It is natural for popular rankings to be higher due to the influx of art house, international and straight to video releases. Popular rankings are taken from IMDb and are fluid. Box office data is taken from The Numbers website (domestic)

Scoring (b-p)

10+ excellent
9 to -9 = good
-10 to -29 = avg
-30 to -49 = poor

Poor (-5pts each) = 1
Very poor (-10pts each) = 1
