The point of this site is to give you recommendations you haven't seen. I hate it when all the recommended movies on Netflix are all movies I've seen and can't

  These recommendations are pretty crazy (in a good way). All my favorite sci-fi, comedies and thrillers in one list. Impressed. Going to check all the ones I haven't seen

  Agreed. I just don't know how I could "rate" that the site is recommending good movies until I have watched them. That is, I'm curious how so many folks are claiming it is doing a great job.

    They all look interesting. Many years ago, netflix did the same. It recommended me a bunch of movies that seemed really interesting and I liked a ton of them, but these days netflix is a low bar. I'd bet they could do a great job, but have a more limited movie selection. Either that or the algo has actually declined.

      Or payolla. Never assume a bad algorithm when a good algorithm makes less money.

      Are you just on streaming? I've noted that the recommendations for streaming are fairly restrictive since they only have around 6000 movies available at a time. With DVDs, the greater selection means better recommendations.

        > they only have around 6000 movies available at a time That many? Always feels more like 10.
