example database sample_mflix.movies.title is not always string

I tried to use the sample_mflix sample database to check MongoDB drivers of C#, how can I use them. The first idea was to download the movies into a statically typed classes, but the provider threw cannot cast int to string exception. Long story short. The problem was that whenever the title of a movie was a number (like spartan 300), the sample database loaded a number instead of a string. Can we change it so the initial load of the database contains only string titles?
