I don’t think Ive seen any of the shows or movies you have reviewed since you began the hobbit rating system.

Do you gravitate towards any professional critics in particular ?

I don't read any critics at all. Not quite true, I listen to Mr Seagoon.

I do read books and listen to podcasts by movie historians , I listen to commentaries by writers and directors and podcasts by story analysts.

Oh right, can you recommend a podcast?

Like Stories Of Old. Cinema Therapy. MB Archives. And all the LOTR ones. I used to listen to Film Courage, it's pretty good too.
