11-20 points: Your life is a mediocre sham, but there’s still some great movies out there that you shouldn’t miss.

21-30 points: You are bland and lacking in personality, but still generally likeable in a pathetic kind of way.

31-40 points: You know there’s a reason why you took this test, don’t you? Quit lying to yourself and get your head examined.
