The formula for calculating the Top Rated 250 Titles gives a true Bayesian estimate:weighted rating (WR) = (v ÷ (v+m)) × R + (m ÷ (v+m)) × C
for the Top 250, only votes from regular voters are considered.
where:
R = average for the movie (mean) = (Rating)
v = number of votes for the movie = (votes)
m = minimum votes required to be listed in the Top 250 (currently 1300)
C = the mean vote across the whole report (currently 6.7)
