A group of my friends who are real film enthusiasts bashed IMDB top 250 in a similar way so they decided to create their own top 250. They had a big spreadsheet, argued and discussed for a long time. The result? Pretty much exactly the same as IMDB top 250.
- skinnymuch 8y agoReally? Their results ended up being close to IMDB? I’ve done similar lists with enthusiast friends. Ours was different enough. There’a no Shawshank Redemption anywhere close to the top, etc.
- Kiro 8y agoYeah, it was ironic. Can I see your list somewhere?
- skinnymuch 8y agoI’m trying to remember which service it was on. On second thought looking over IMDB top movies. The list probably is sort of similar. It really is hard to get a conesensus for top movies. Sure my own personal list as a media geek will be different. But no one else is really going to agree with my esoteric specific films. IMDB does have some films that stick out in the top of their list though. Star Wars being so high, LOTR being so high, Inception, Seven, Green Mile, Gladiator. No matter though you’re right that consensus is hard to get. And most of the films that I listed as out of place are part of fanboy beloved franchises or headed by fanboy beloved directors.
