I saw that one of my posts about whether a movie should get published created a discussion on IRC yesterday. (Sorry I didn't join, but I was too busy proving correctness of a computer program.) The topic of the discussion was whether boring movies should be unpublished. I want to propose a different solution that addresses the problem of deciding if a submission should be rejected because the game is boring, despite the fact that it is played perfectly. If you could vote for published movies directly when browsing (and the mean value and number of votes was immediately visible), people could more easily decide what movies are worth watching. This system could also replace(?) the current star system. The downside of this might be more published, but boring, movies.

A system for voting/rating of published movies has already been planned a bit. http://tasvideos.org/TODO.html

I didn't think I was the first person to think about it (although I could have done more research before creating the topic). I still think what to do with boring movies played perfectly needs to be addressed, and perhaps this can be the solution.

Analysing what he wrote, it seems he will publish movies that are not played perfectly. I do not feel those movies belong on this site. I'm trying to find strict rules for when a movie should be published.
