Correlation between budget of Films and their ratings

Hi

I've decided to do this investigation quite long time ago and finally i have gathered all the data i needed. So, i took the top 100 movies from the TOP 250 Movies of all time from IMDB. I took their ratings and their budgets. I adjusted all 100 budgets to 2011 inflation for obvious reasons.

So i've put all the data i have gathered into excel and yes, i did get positive correlation although it may not be very strong. I'm still happy there is some though because the data was pain to obtain sometimes (Opening 100 tabs and scrolling down to budget and alt-tabbing to write it down etc.)

I'm attaching the picture of the graph

so, my question is, what could i possibly do with it now? i want to say that "budget of a film indeed has effect on how it is rated in the future" or whatever. or should i change my hypothesis? also, what kind of calculations could i do? thank you! =)
