IMDB= officially no more credibility? | Thread profile

I love this site and respect so many reviews out there..I guess it's the people that actually write those things that actually try to rate things fairly... Any halfway decent film fan would take a glance at the IMDB top 250's upper ranks and realize it is a bit hilarious, but the fact that Batman became number 1 on opening weekend is just beyond belief!

Oh let it go. The fact that Psycho isn't number one told us long ago that the list doesn't matter So this is how Liberty dies, With thunderous applause.

- the fact it beats so many good films on the IMDb top 250, it is a realistic rating. Charlieeeee!!!... Charlieeee!!! We're going to Candy Mountain Charlie!!!!!!

UPDATED Sun Jul 20 2008 02:29:40 The IMDb Top 250 is a completely subjective ranking based on the opinions of anyone and everyone who chimes in. Of course it's not going to line up perfectly with your own personal Top 250, because not everyone has the same opinions as you. To say that some film does or doesn't deserve to be on a list is to say your opinion is more important then...

You didn't realize that when the list claimed Shawshank was better then every other film ever made? http://youtube.com/watch?v=EK4UuKoJcaw

Look, this happened with LotR and Jacksons Kong as well as many other films. When the dust settles months down the line this will drop. It's fanboy/girl frauds mixed in with people who genuinely thought the film deserved the rating. It WILL drop. **Skin that Smokewagon and see what happens!** Tombstone

Well it's realistic, it's a public poll, which means that it is democratic and representative of the masses, directly. The great majority of the movie going public from all over the world say this is the number 1 movie ever made. Period. The end.

Well, it's not "Period. The End." because only a day or two has past. People will be voting on this movie until Armageddon comes.

Did the fact, that this movie *may* be hilarious, ever come to your mind?

It's the equivalency of voting a senator, on his third day in office, into secretary general for U.N.
