May 2016 End Of The Month Report!

| | |
May is the beginning of Summer Blockbuster Season, but we got our most consistent hits from reviewing the ends of the current seasons of Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., Legends Of Tomorrow, and The Flash! For another month, readership picked up!

This month, we picked up three new followers on Twitter, but no new subscribers! We are always trying to get people to become regular readers and subscribe, so if you enjoy what you're reading, please subscribe by clicking on the right side of the blog to get updates with each posting. As well, if you read a review that really affects you, be sure to "share" it! PLEASE share a link to the blog, not the content of the article; this keeps people coming to the site and, hopefully, liking what they find once they are here! We're slowly growing our readership, so sharing and subscribing to the blog is an important way you can help! If you’re subscribing, please tell your friends about the blog!

In May, the index pages were frequently updates. The primary Index Page, is usually updated daily and lets you know what the featured review is and has an up-to-the-day tally of how many reviews have been reviewed in each category! Check it out and feel free to use that as it is a much more useful and organized index to the reviews I've written!

If you enjoy the reviews, please consider clicking on the links in the reviews and purchasing items. We really appreciate all the purchases made through the blog as that keeps us going. As summer spending picks up, if you're going shopping online, please come through the blog to to it. Thank you so much!

The Featured Reviews For The Month of May are my reviews of the first two big summer blockbusters: Captain America: Civil War and X-Men: Apocalypse!
Check them out!


The month of May was, predictably, dominated by prior new reviews of new television episodes, with a couple of surprise blasts from the past. For May, the Top Ten Reviews of the month were:
10. Folgers Fresh Breaks 100% Colombian Roasted Concentrated Coffee
9. "Legendary" - Legends Of Tomorrow
8. "Destiny" - Legends Of Tomorrow
7. Haagen-Dazs Blueberry Crumble Ice Cream
6. "The Runaway Dinosaur" - The Flash
5. "Failed Experiments" - Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.
4. "The Race Of His Life" - The Flash
3. "Emancipation" - Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.
2. "Absolution" - Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D. - Season 4
1. "Ascension" - Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.

I pride myself on being an exceptionally fair reviewer, but one who is very discriminating. I believe that most reviewers are far too biased toward both what is current and toward unduly praising things. I tend to believe most things actually are average and they ought to follows something around a Bell Curve. Mine is a little lopsided, but not as lopsided as most reviewers I know (who would probably have peak numbers between ten and seven)!

For my reviews, the current count is:
10s - 319 reviews
9s - 480 reviews
8s - 927 reviews
7s - 1033 reviews
6s - 957 reviews
5s - 1220 reviews
4s - 899 reviews
3s - 700 reviews
2s - 329 reviews
1s - 220 reviews
0s - 108 reviews
No rating - 117 articles/postings

While there was a decent amount of movement this month, the all time Top Ten remains unchanged. At the end of April 2016, the most popular reviews/articles continue to be:
10. The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
9. Safe Haven
8. Oz The Great And Powerful
7. The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bone
6. Warm Bodies
5. Iron Man 3
4. Now You See Me
3. Tyler Perry's Temptation
2. The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug
1. Man Of Steel
