Can we predict the viewer rating of a film (on IMDB) from information prior to release, such as the film's streaming platform, critic rating (from Rotten Tomatoes) or genre?

See the notebooks for the data compilation process and analysis.

Note that the file containing the film titles can be downloaded from https://www.imdb.com/interfaces/ [title.basics.tsv.gz].

The environment is being managed by conda with configuration stored in the 'env.yml' file. To create your environment just use conda env create --file env.yml from the base of the repository. To update using a new config use conda env update --file env.yml --prune.
