1. rename():

Rename the “Film” column to “movie_title” and “Year” to “release_year”.

q1 <- movies %>% 
  rename( movie_title = Film , 
          release_year = Year)

head(q1)
## # A tibble: 6 × 8

## # ℹ 3 more variables: `Rotten Tomatoes %` <dbl>, `Worldwide Gross` <chr>,
## #   release_year <dbl>

2. select():

Create a new dataframe with only the columns: movie_title, release_year, Genre, Profitability,

q2 <- q1 %>% 
  select(movie_title, release_year, Genre, Profitability, `Rotten Tomatoes %`)

head(q2)
## # A tibble: 6 × 5
##   movie_title               release_year Genre Profitability `Rotten Tomatoes %`

3. filter():

Filter the dataset to include only movies released after 2000 with a Rotten Tomatoes % higher than 80.

q3 <- q2 %>% 
  filter(release_year > 2000, `Rotten Tomatoes %` > 80)

head(q3)

4. mutate():

Add a new column called “Profitability_millions” that converts the Profitability to millions of dollars.

q4 <- q3 %>% 
  mutate(Profitability_millions = Profitability * 1000000)

head(q4)
## # A tibble: 6 × 6
##   movie_title            release_year Genre    Profitability `Rotten Tomatoes %`
##   <chr>                         <dbl> <chr>            <dbl>               <dbl>

## # ℹ 1 more variable: Profitability_millions <dbl>

5. arrange():

Sort the filtered dataset by Rotten Tomatoes % in descending order, and then by Profitability in descending order. five <- four %>% arrange(desc(Rotten Tomatoes %) , desc(Profitability_millions))

q5 <- q4 %>% 
  arrange(desc(`Rotten Tomatoes %`), desc(Profitability_millions))

head(q5)
## # A tibble: 6 × 6
##   movie_title       release_year Genre     Profitability `Rotten Tomatoes %`
##   <chr>                    <dbl> <chr>             <dbl>               <dbl>

6. Combining functions:

Use the pipe operator (%>%) to chain these operations together, starting with the original dataset and ending with a final dataframe that incorporates all the above transformations.

final_df <- movies %>% 
  rename(movie_title = Film, release_year = Year) %>% 
  select(movie_title, release_year, Genre, Profitability, `Rotten Tomatoes %`) %>% 
  filter(release_year > 2000, `Rotten Tomatoes %` > 80) %>% 
  mutate(Profitability_millions = Profitability * 1000000) %>% 
  arrange(desc(`Rotten Tomatoes %`), desc(Profitability_millions))

head(final_df)
## # A tibble: 6 × 6
##   movie_title       release_year Genre     Profitability `Rotten Tomatoes %`
##   <chr>                    <dbl> <chr>             <dbl>               <dbl>
## 1 WALL-E                    2008 Animation          2.90                  96
## 2 Midnight in Paris         2011 Romence            8.74                  93
## 3 Enchanted                 2007 Comedy             4.01                  93
## 4 Knocked Up                2007 Comedy             6.64                  91
## 5 Waitress                  2007 Romance           11.1                   89
## 6 A Serious Man             2009 Drama              4.38                  89
## # ℹ 1 more variable: Profitability_millions <dbl>

7. Interpret question 6

From the resulting data, are the best movies the most popular?

extra_credit <- final_df %>% 
  group_by(Genre) %>% 
  summarize(
    avg_rating = mean(`Rotten Tomatoes %`, na.rm = TRUE),
    avg_profit_millions = mean(Profitability_millions, na.rm = TRUE)
  )

extra_credit
## # A tibble: 6 × 3
##   Genre     avg_rating avg_profit_millions
##   <chr>          <dbl>               <dbl>
## 1 Animation       92.5            2130856.
## 2 Comedy          89.3            5038005.
## 3 Drama           85.7            2197608.
## 4 Romance         87              5544871.
## 5 Romence         93              8744706.
## 6 comedy          87              8096000
