I rarely do this, but here you go.

I'm sorry for ridiculing you yesterday.

I was wrong about the 4 star rating. I see that on Verizon Fios they use it and Redbox as you mentioned. I went off my most common critic forms of using the Washington Post, Local ABC 7 News with Arch Campbell, Newsday, Rollingstone, to my Cox and Comcast TV guides (major to local news & entertainment outlets, you get the idea here) thinking that since many of my entertainment outlets that use the star system out of 4, that there is no 5 star system for movies. But as you pointed out, Verizon and Red Box & Netflix, both of which I've used very seldomly, also use the 5 star system. I was wrong. My apologies again, mredskins.

No worries! It actually blossomed into a humorous segment here. If you have any hard feeling my apologies as well.
