I haven't seen the movie, but on the very formula that the actual list uses, the weighted average of this film is considerably lower than movies that aren't on the Top 250. I used The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug, a movie outside of that list, as an example to counter this movie.
Desolation of Smaug has 8.0 from 409944 users at the time I calculated this, which gives true Bayesian estimate of 7.943.
In comparison, at the same time, this movie, at the very bottom of the Top 250, had 8.1 from 41186 users. When I plugged the numbers together, I ended up with 7.685.
Am I missing something here?

Lol.
The dust has come to stay. You may stay or pass on through or whatever.

Yeah, you missed one of the best movies created, while calculating Bayesian estimates. I feel sorry for you.

And you also missed the fact that the IMDb Top 250 is also determined by the top 1000 voters and by the IMDb staff. So your calculations are wrong.

You are correct. This should not be in the top 250. It should be in the top 25 at very least.
