How Draw works

Inflation-adjusted worldwide box office, on one global curve, and nothing else. It does not know whether a film was good.

How Praise works

Critics set the score; a tiered award record, Picture and Directing carrying the most weight, claims half the headroom above it. Praise is the verdict at the time; Legacy is the verdict since.

Legacy42

Not judged yet, so Legacy falls back to footprint: how many still rate it, how highly, and for how long.

How Legacy works

Canon list membership, reach (Wikipedia traffic above IMDb votes) and time served. Every signal behind it keeps updating, which is what separates Legacy from Praise.

Added, not multiplied, so a film transcendent on one pillar and weak on another is not zeroed out. A compression curve then squeezes the top, because the seven greatest films ever made should not be four thousand feet apart.
