Thought on that inside.

Posted by: DTravel on Mar 31, 10:40 in response to slipping jimmy's post my personal experience with the Netflix algorithm: it may...

Its pretty clear that at least on the streaming side Netflix's recommendations have less to do with what you have watched and liked and more to do with Netflix pushing what they want you to watch.

I wrote some more about Netflix & old ideas about how movies can be good/bad dont apply on a platform that doesnt need traditional marketing Moviesnob Mar 30, 11:42

Great article and totally agree! Man, what I'd give to have access to their internal data. {nm} numbersix_99 Mar 30, 12:18

Would love to see how Annihilation (Netflix premiere internationally) fared against something like Cloverfield Paradox {nm} numbersix_99 Mar 30, 12:18

ha ha, they'll never tell {nm} slipping jimmy Mar 30, 12:23

Annihilation's exit polls in the US were A LOT better than I expected. It got a C cinemascore which has basically its comScore rating too. Moviesnob Mar 30, 16:49

my personal experience with the Netflix algorithm: it may think it knows what i would be interested in watching but maybe 50/50 at best slipping jimmy Mar 30, 12:22

also, what i generally want to watch (good/great features) seems to overlap with the kind of content they've pulled back drastically on slipping jimmy Mar 30, 12:27

you're likely a more discerning subscriber than most {nm} Moviesnob Mar 30, 16:44

Netflix recommended Donnie Darko one time... cause I had watched Babe {nm} RazorHawk Mar 31, 11:11

Netlfix's recommendations are mostly based on similar viewing habits with lots of others. Similar content is a smaller part of it Moviesnob Mar 31, 11:34

I hope it didn't also recommend kids watch Donnie Darko after watching Babe! {nm} tealfan Mar 31, 14:29
