Isn't the current iMDB score just an average of everyones scores combined?

How do you propose a scoring system would work where movies are scored according to your preference in movies?

If you look at what nomadlist.com has done for places - I can easily figure out if I would like to visit a place or not, by selecting their emoji based filters.. I think a similar emoji based rating, that could say how sad a movie is, how happy a movies is, etc, could be useful. What you think?

Personally I would associate a frowning/sad emoji with something negative; the movie is bad etc.

It sounds like you want to seperate the rating and emotion/vibe of a movie, and score/rate both?

Yes, emotions- "how does one feel while watching the movie". This is missing from the traditional genre tagging - "whats the movie about"
