I would have replied to this topic - Month in Review! - but it wouldn’t allow me to for some reason.
Anyway, I like the Month/Year In Review feature, however, I feel like the movies aspect is slightly nonsensical as it stands.
Taken as a Lifetime set of stats, it makes sense to list Most Plays for movies, but to do this for monthly or even yearly stats is slightly pointless. Most people will only watch a particular film once in a month and still most will only watch a particular movie once in a year (but I know there will be a greater number who watch a particular film more than once in a year than those who might do it in a month). Nevertheless, I should imagine this current stat is rather meaningless for the overwhelming majority of users, especially as it secondly ranks it by minutes watched, so a single watch of a longer film ranks higher than a single watch of a shorter film. This is entirely arbitrary and of no real value/interest.
Most Plays works for TV shows but it’s a little bit of a case of comparing apples and oranges.
I think the only part of Month/Year In Review feature that works / makes sense for movies is the “most watched genres” - perhaps something more interesting could be done with this - graphically at least, rather than just the simple type of stacked bar chart that it current is.
Maybe there’s an additional movie-related stat you could include in these monthly (and yearly) reports (“most watched decade”?), but whenever I read mine, I’m always struck by how meaningless most of the movie stats are and how it just feels like “we did this for the TV stats so we’ll do this for the movie ones, too”, rather than there having been an evaluation of the point or purpose to include it.
Perhaps I’m on my own on this and nobody else cares, lol, but I thought I’d offer some feedback, which I hope is at least somewhat constructive!
