Yes haha, don't know when I'll be back in action on this site though, thanks for checking. I'm moving to a different state and progressing through several life changes at the moment. Just super swamped and no time for movies, music, etc, right now...

Much appreciated HK, lots of changes but all for the better. I’m busier than ever with life stuff and whatnot and won’t be able to consume as much media/art etc like before and so I won’t be updating as much as I was before either, but I’m about to start to get going again now (even if slowly). I’ll see how it goes but main focus may have to become more on insights/analysis/discussion of works I’ve already listed more so than with consuming more of them or on as many revisits as I had been doing.

Were there any notable ratings updates changes/updates from Scaruffi over the last 3 months? Things like new 8s, or “this 7.5 got updated to an 8.0” or “he finally rated some Classical/literature pages (or painters)” or “he finally listened to you and upgraded Brazil or In the Aeroplane etc”  Anything happen like that?
Haven’t been keeping up or found the time to go through “Scaruffitize me” pages yet to see what they caught, or to go through his site yet and try to find it myself so any info of any interesting developments (if they exist) would be helpful.

^^^ Note that I am mainly asking for ones that aren’t immediately on or were missed by the RYM scaruffitize me/scaruffi in the movies pages and especially something like him rating some painters, literature or classical music (which are harder to catch than Rock, Jazz, Cinema)

Good question, it’s kinda hard to determine what counts as a Christian record in more modern cases outside of those more plainly in the CCM genre. And beyond the more obviously or plainly religious works, classical can be tough. Good Son could be called a rare exception in Rock outside CCM.
Maybe something like:
Mass in B Minor - Bach
A Love Supreme - John Coltrane
Requiem - Verdi
Glagolitic Mass - Janacek
St Matthew Passion - Bach
Missa Solemnis - Beethoven
German Requiem - Brahms
Polish Requiem - Penderecki
Messiah - Handel
Passion - Peter Gabriel
St Luke Passion - Penderecki
Requiem - Mozart
Requiem - Ligeti
Gets pretty messy, uncertain below Missa Solemnis because I need to revisit those more to better place them (besides Gabriel’s Passion). Also things like which version of Mozart’s Requiem etc.?
Also there are lots of Beethoven that allude to spiritual salvation and the like but are they Christian?
Good Son might be around #20-25 for me if I ironed out and added to the above though keep in mind that I haven’t rated it as high as 9 like Scaruffi in probably 15+ years.

Welcome back AH. Thanks for the little Christian list, it'll do.
Not really any updates, but Touch of Evil has overtaken Citizen Kane as his favorite movie.

Apparently aside from cinema he's also been working on the classical ratings, that's what he said when someone emailed him
