The formula for calculating the Top Rated Titles gives a true Bayesian estimate: 

 weighted rating (WR) = (v ÷ (v+m)) × R + (m ÷ (v+m)) × C

 where:
  R = average for the movie (mean) = (Rating)
  v = number of votes for the movie = (votes)
  m = minimum votes required to be listed in the Top  (currently )
  C = the mean vote across the whole report (currently )
for the Top , only votes from regular voters are considered.

In order to appear in the Bottom Titles chart the title must have received at least votes.
