Quite often members throw out a perfect score for a movie.
Fan boy reviews aside - does anyone believe there is such a movie? A perfect movie?
To me a perfect score is unattainable.
Within a genre one could make an argument for giving a high score.
A perfect score, would be a movie that cuts across the lines of taste and is universally respected.
To give a popcorn movie a higher rating than a well made piece of film does not make any sense.
A well made genre movie would not only have to suceed at being compared to similar movies but also with films outside of it's genre.
A difficult task to be sure - much like comparing apples to oranges.
What one would say to having a perfect movie being released in a new version such as an extended cut or director's cut.
If it was perfect in the first place then a new version would be unnecessary.
