Those people at Netflix know me better than I know myself.



I've been a member of Netflix for a few years now, and so far, it's working out fairly well. It's pretty sweet to get DVDs in the mail, because I'm not a big fan of the whole video store experience. Most of the people who work in those places just kinda' freak me out.

Recently, Netflix added a new feature to their website. After they have received a DVD you have returned in the mail, they ask you to give the film a rating of one to five stars. Then, based on your opinion of the film you have just returned, they recommend two "movies you'll love".

Last week, I returned Jackass Number Two, and was asked to give my opinion of it at the Netflix website. So, here's what they recommend for me based on whichever star ranking I would have given the film.

One star (Hated It):




Two stars (Didn't Like it):




Three stars (Liked It):




Four stars (Really Liked It):




Five stars (Loved It):




Actually, this was quite helpful. Whatever my opinion of Jackass Number Two turned out to be, I have already seen all of their recommendations, with the exception of An Evening With Kevin Smith 2: Evening Harder.

Taking all of this into consideration, there are only two things I know for sure:

According to the Netflix recommendations and rating system, If I loved Jackass Number Two, then I'm going to love An Evening With Kevin Smith 2: Evening Harder. And if I hated Jackass Number Two, then I'm going to love An Evening With Kevin Smith 2: Evening Harder.

Special thanks to the brilliant minds at Netflix for clearing this up for me.
