    it’s kinda obvious when you think about it. You have to pick your movies with RNG if you want your score to average 5/10 because you need to include absolute trash in your watchlist. People do not pick their movies with RNG, we are selecting for things we think we might like.

    This goes for videogames and other stuff too.

      Even that assumes that movies should be graded to a curve discounting that people may rate movies in a more absolute sense of how much they enjoyed them and that the craft of film makers can result in more movies being enjoyable than not.
