::I would just like to say about the comment about PC films, not all of the time are PC films given 1's. For instance, the film "Triumph of the Wills", often considered to be the best propoganda film ever made (in fact, a lot of people consider Expelled to be propoganda) has only 5.1% of the people rating the film a 1 (although, and I know this will get brought up, 5.1 is bigger than 5, I know). This film is very un-PC because of it's glorification of the Nazi party.

::Also, what is funny (although I really should not put it in this section), is how much this reminds me of "Ferenheight 9/11". This is because, both films are done from one person's point of view, not showing both sides. Both films are, in their own way, propoganda films (although not as bad as "Triumph" was) because they both premote their own point of views and do not mention (at least from what I have heard), the other point of view in a positive light. Therefore, they promote only one point of view and try to get people to surrender to those points of views. --[[User:Rocky|Rocky]]

I would like to raise some questions about the entry on the page about the Internet movie database in the viewer reception section.
 +
 +
I understand that it's a good idea to omit the reviews given without seeing the movie. I, being an online musician on a music rating site, happen to know that not all votes are submitted by peoplewho have witnessed the actual subject.
 +
 +
However, it says that removing the 1 ratings given without seeing the movie raises the score to 8.5.
 +
 +
It also says there were 1600 such reviews.
 +
 +
Did somebody actually check all of the reviews on that site and look for evidence that they didn't see the movie, or did the person who wrote that just assume that every single 1 rating given to the movie was because they didn't see it?
 +
 +
If it's the former, I salute that person. If it's the latter, we should probably remove it, since it's highly possible to greatly dislike ANY movie after seeing it.
 +
 +
We should get our facts straight about this.--[[User:JackSmith|JackSmith]] 15:29, 7 June 2008 (EDT)
