True, I was thinking about this some other time too. I think more granularity in votes doesn’t really solve that though, you need some way of weighting approvals. Like determining whose approval matters most.
If the point of a rating is to be used as a predictor for how much you might enjoy a movie, then it might be worth switching to a three star system and weighing the star choices of other reviewers higher or lower based on how many previous movies you rated similiar to them.
yes but with approval rating the “best” movies are the ones which appeal at least enough to the most people.
