Reviews: Suggestion to increase the increase the relevance of reviews
Hi there,
I always refer to the reviews on IMDB before renting or buying a movie, but they are not perfect.
I think the reviews would be more useful if we knew the age and sex of the writer.
A movie that gets 10/10 from a teenage female, might not be enjoyed by a 65 year old male (me fir instance).
I am sure it would be "fairly" easy for IMDB to incorporate (but I realise the older reviews would not have this extra data.
Please reply to this thread so that IMDB staff can see if my idea is any good.
Regards,
Paul

reviewers could add "I reviewed this movie when I was 15 years old" ??
too young to register at IMDb ??
Users / reviewers could post Birthdate on their Profile page ??
