Hollywood sure to produce more short films and film noir

According to this analysis of movie ratings (with neat graphs!), short films, film noir, and documentaries have the highest ratings on IMDB. At the bottom of the barrel are horror, sci-fi, action, and thillers. With minor exceptions, film ratings appear to be inversely proportional to box office earnings.

(BTW, that analysis is courtesy of Lada Adamic, who makes an appearance in Linked: The New Science of Networks (1st chapter) by Barabási.)
