Nice illustration that prejudice can be a useful thing.

You could go selecting movies to see completely at random and only rarely 
see one that you actually like, or you can use your best judgment to sort 
away the ones you think you won't enjoy.

Is judging a movie you haven't seen a random shot in the dark? Of course 
not. I think most people have seen movies they didn't want to see very much 
because it was together with someone else who wanted to see it. In those 
situation you most often find that you were right about your initial 
prejudice and only very rarely is a movie you didn't think was good actually 
a positive surprise. At least in my experience.
