Gary Franklin is a movie critic. He invented the Franklin Scale with which he rates movies from 1 to 10 (10 being best). When asked about his scale, Mr. Franklin explained that it is a subjective measure of movie quality.
 
  A movie with a ranking of 10 is not necessarily 10 times better than a movie with a ranking of 1, but it is better. A movie with a ranking of 5 is better than a movie with a ranking of 1, but is not as good a movie with a ranking of 10. That's all it really tells you. Based on Mr. Franklin's description, his scale is: A) ordinal but not cardinal.
  B) cardinal but not ordinal.
  C) an objective standard to judge movies.
  D) neither cardinal nor ordinal.
