Re: How often do you write Mini-Reviews?
I forget when I started but I write a mini-review for every film I watch. That said there are still a lot of films that I have no intention of reviewing unless I end up rewatching them.

Yeah, me too. Richardson missed his true calling.
after more than 6 years, I have decided to retire my Richardson avatar. Current pic is just a placeholder until I come up with something better. Suggestions welcome.
EDIT: I've been Lina-fied.

Either an exploitation poster or something Godfrey Ho-related is what immediately comes to mind.
However, why can't you use the Lina Romay avatar you have on Cinemageddon? I recall it was safe for work.

oooh yeah Lina. Lemme see if I can find that gif.
Seems appropriate, she's #2 on my list of actors who I've seen the most films starring (just 3 behind Jackie Chan), and the #1 female by a very large margin.

Re: How often do you write Mini-Reviews?
So apparently, I have written slightly under 200 reviews (191 to be exact) in just over a year, looking back at my post on November 30th, 2012. Considering I have seen 99 new movies since that time, which I automatically write reviews for, that is slow progress.
To be fair, I only have 160 movies left without a mini-review, and many of those I want to re-watch, as my memories aren't pristine.

Re: How often do you write Mini-Reviews?
My mini-review writing depends on few factors. I don't like forcing myself to write, so I'm waiting for reviews to spontaneously show up in my head. Sometimes they come in English, sometimes in Polish and I dump them on some forums in my native language. Depends what I have to say, Polish feels more poetic and flexible to me, while English is more straight to the point and easier to formulate short thoughts.

Re: How often do you write Mini-Reviews?
I used to not write anything...now I write something to use as a point of reference to let me know that I've seen a film. I watch all kinds of movies, from award winning stuff to people filming with a handy cam. After all these ratings, I honestly don't remember some of the films I've rated. Not even a single scene in some cases (usually the really boring/bad films) so writing something helps jog my memory.
On a side note, most of my "reviews" are rants or musings, rather than trying to be a proper critic. For instance, my amazing review of Troma's "Buttcrack" (which I scored 0/100):
"I will shit in Lloyd Kaufman's mouth."
Sums up the film beautifully, me thinks.
