Movie Blink Prediction: Pink Panther

I loved the book "Blink" by Malcolm Gladwell. He talks about how most human decisions are made in the blink of an eye. He encourages people to rely on their instinct - Most people are taught to distrust their instincts and perform a rational thought process before any action.

Unfortunately, in most cases, the decision has already been made and the "rational process" works to extract facts selectively to prove the argument !

Gladwell believes that there are some folks that can through sheer instinct, predict the success or failure of ventures.

I believe that I might have such a talent with movies. I believe that I can tell if a movie will be a hit, just by looking at the trailer. So, I am going to perform an online experiment of sorts and "predict" the success of various movies .....

First movie, Pink Panther.
Starring: Steve Martin
Verdict: Flop
