Predicting Film Ratings With Simple Linear Regression

First of all, imputing film data is simply not very effective. Picking mean budget or runtime values is also questionable, since budget values, for example, increase over time with inflation and other factors (Note. I did not account for inflation, at least in this iteration of the project). I also avoided engineering new features. Although I could have created genre or keyword clusters, keywords on IMDb were bizarre, unfitting, and even inappropriate.
