I love movies and data, which is I started tracking every movie that I watched as a new years resolution on January 1st, 2019.

I rated each movie based on how entertaining it was in context of the genre(s) it was in. Then, I recorded the IMDB scores of each film after I had given my own score, and calculate a difference between my score and the IMDB score.

Some movies I watched in movie theaters, a lot I watched on Netflix, or Peacock, Hulu, Amazon, Paramount, YouTube (free with ads), and other streaming services. Before the pandemic, I used to go to the movie theater at least once a week. But now, I go about once a month, at most.

In total, I watched 1,113 movies. Looking at the number of movies per year, On average, I watched 185 movies per year. This comes out to about 15 movies per month, or about 1 movies every other day. There is an upward trend during the first two years of the pandemic.

This graph shows movies viewed per year.

The average rating rating that I gave to the movies that I watched was 6.76 / 10 (with a standard deviation of 1.6). The median rating was 7/10, and the mode rating was 7.5. On average, my ratings were 0.26/10 higher rating than IMDB ratings.

A frequency table of my movie ratings is provided below:

You can also view a histogram graph showing my ratings of movies over the past six years here:

Below are the movies that I have rated either a 10/10, or a 9.5 /10. Keep in mind that these are from movies that I have seen in the last six years, and there are many great movies that I have watched before 2019 which I have not watched again, which is why they may not be in my top rated list.

Below are my top rated movies per release year. I have seen many more films made per year the closer the year is to the present. So, for most years before 1976, I only watched one film from that year, if not none at all. At first, I thought to only include years in which I have seen at least five films (anything from 1977 or more recent), but I also thought it might be informative to share my ratings for some great older movies that I had discovered for myself. Therefore, I have excluded any movies from earlier years which were rated less than 6/10.

Since my ratings are based on a scale from 1 to 10, in context of the genre they are in, I also wanted to present the top films from each genre. The problem is that most films fall under more than once genre. Therefore, I have somewhat subjectively included a list of the various combinations of genres that I found most common in my data.

For the most part, my…
