This post is part of a series of posts to analyse the digital me.

In my previous post about analysing IMDB ratings in this series I explored some of the data I collected about my movie preferences, also compared to the ratings other IMDB raters.

Getting my IMDB ratings with R and Rvest

I’m a big fan of IMDB and have been for many years. It is a fantastic website with a lot of information about movies, documentaries and tv-series. Besides fact-checking (“who was that guy playing in that one movie?”) it is also a place for me to collect all the ratings I have done on movies in the past few years. The star rating system is pretty effective to see if I already watched a certain movie and what I thought of it.
