Quotes

Harry Turner:
Chester, I give you my *solemn* word. *This* time it's not dangerous.


Chester Babcock:
Not dangerous?


Harry Turner:
No.


Chester Babcock:
That's what 'cha said when you shot me out of a cannon, when you dropped me in a tank with an octopus. When you had me wrestle a gorilla. It's not dangerous! I'm not goin'. I'm through. I've had it. So forget it, *Charly*!

Mistakes

How do we recommend titles?

With more than a million titles, it isn't feasible to handpick recommendations for every film. That's why we came up with a formula to suggest titles that fit along with the selected one. The formula uses factors such as user votes, genre and keywords to generate an automatic response. The system produces relevant results most of the time but since recommended titles are not manually chosen, occasionally they may include less than perfect matches.
