Hi! Welcome to the community, btw! I like your handle because I recently watched the old 60s movie you took it from thanks to Netflix. Great classroom film that had a nice 60s vibe.
Anyways, the highest sim% to me is 87% and then I met the guy on here and chat all the time. How cool is that?
I've never seen or heard of anyone with a 90+% so I'd be curious if anyone has run across that...
I'm 93% similar with UpcomingCinema. It's weird because looking through her ( I assume it's a her because of the avatar) queue, there's so much in her queue that I wouldn't even consider watching even if it was on broadcast tv. Perhaps the sheer volume of her rated movies and the meager ones I have coincide enough to rate the similarity quite high.
From what I've come to understand, the similarity for strangers is based not on movies rated or reviews, but specifically on how you've rated your Genres, in addition to what disks you've queued and shipped.
More often than not, someone with a 40% - 50% similarity will have much more in common with me than those who happen to have a high "similarity".
In many cases, their lists and their 5-star ratings will show me whether or not a profile has any specific interest for me.
My wife has 78% similarity to me. I, however, have 94% similarity to her. I suppose it's because I've rated a couple of thousand movies vs. her hundreds. So there's a good chance that anything she's rated I've also rated and we seem to have somewhat similar tastes (we're usually within one star of each other. Usually).
i have someone at 88% which is very rare for me as my genre love of heist,bank robbery,home invasion,cop action,card scams flicks seems to put me in a rare league! that i don,t find many others in!
