Edit for readability:

Lower ranking is better, as in "rank 1" would be the best movie rated by that group.

The top section shows movies highly ranked by women, but lower for men. The bottom section is the reverse.

Did I miss where the data comes from? It's interesting to ponder some of these.

I believe the data was from IMDB

I wonder if there's some strong self-selection bias here, then.

I think there's some bias for sure. Elsewhere in this thread, I pasted a chart showing that males are way overrepresented in the rating data.

I wouldn't be surprised if that trend is even stronger with older generations, leading to the male ratings representing more classics than the female ratings.
