Idle hands...

It's late, I'm not feeling especially tired, and there's nothing terribly interesting on television.
Consequently, I've found that my current state of restlessness has been motivation enough to do some quick counting and a little math.

Of the IMDb's top 250 movies I've seen about 155, and of their bottom 100 I have, over some years, managed to subject myself to a total of 6. You figure which ones.
While I'm no master mathmatician, I figure this to mean that for about every single stinker that I've sat through, I've also seen about ten "classics". Probably not a bad hit-to-miss ratio.

I'd speculate about the movies that don't appear on either list and their impact on the ratio, but that's the sort of thinkin' that don't set in until at least 3am.

Beans.
