You do know what day it is today right? 3/14 or 3.14, the day of Pi. According to Pi fans to meet March 14 (3.14, get it?), It is about a curious group of people with an almost religious zeal for a mind-numbing string of numbers. Actually one number, made up of a chain that is known — so far — to be more than one trillion digits long. They are the acolytes of the church of pi. And once a year many of them gather to talk about pi, rhapsodize about it, eat pi-themed foods (actual pie, sure, but so much more), have pi recitation contests and, just maybe, feel a little less sheepish about their unusual passion.
Along with that, I’ll found this: The Ten Coolest Numbers (from Digg).
Anyway, I had saw these links after watching The Number 23 with CDMCC. The movie was okay, but I don’t think the movie gave the audience enough clues to figure out the ending, which came pouring out like a fire hydrant once the valve was opened. It’s basically about a man who encounters a book talking about the number 23 and starts seeing similarity in this life and begins to obsess about the number himself.

is it by coincidence your rating is always in line with IMDB rating?
I wouldn’t say it’s purely by coincidence. Often times I pick movies to watch based on their IMDb rating. I hardly ever watch any movies rated 6 or below and I typically also give movies a rating within 6-8, unless it was super good or super bad. When I type up my blog entry, I enter my personal rating first, before fetching the others, hoping to not get biased.
Going through my past ratings, here are the comparisons.
IMDb : Mine – Movie
6.3 : 6 – Number 23
7.2 : 8 – The Host
6.7 : 7 – The Motel
8.5 : 9 – Pan’s Labyrinth
5.8 : 6 – Heavenly Mission
7.9 : 6.5 – This Film Is Not Yet Rated
8.6 : 8.5 – The Lives of Others
7.7 : 8 – Brick
8.1 : 8.5 – Children of Men
8.1 : 8 – The Prestige
8.3 : 7 – An Inconvenient Truth
8.1 : 8.5 – Casino Royale
6.2 : 6.5 – Miami Vice
7.1 : 6 – Highlander
7.0 : 6.5 – Rob-B-Hood
8.1 : 7.0 – Clerks II
5.5 : 6 – You Me and Dupree
5.9 : 6 – Nacho Libre
6.9 : 6 – Click
It appears the difference between my ratings and IMDb has a range of 0.1 to 1.3.
