As of today, only 14 users have completed this list! I'm surprised.
(I've got 8 to go, myself, though I did have it completed last year or early this year, briefly).
This - is - appalling! Seriously. This list used to be a great starting point for people actually interested in getting into cinema beyond the mainstream - with tasters of work by great film-makers unknown to the casual film goer - it introduced me to films that I'd never heard of before when I was looking for something more than the mainstream. With the films nawi has listed below now gone that's a guaranteed decline in film knowledge for the future. A Top 250 films that doesn't include Come and See, Wages of Fear, The Grand Illusion, Les Diaboliques and The Passion of Joan of Arc is not a list worth reading, not to mention wonderful films that exist just below the radar. How are these films expected to get 25,000 votes? I am actually shocked.
If the inclusion of movies on this list (or any list) leads to people seeing movies they love, that is a plus for me. For the rest: who cares. It's just a bloody list.
Can any of you with opinions about what should or shouldn't be on this list state why? Because the reason they are there is that a lot of people gave them a high vote. You can't argue against that in my opinion, but I'd like to see you try. And as I have said before, if you don't like every movie on this list, that means you have a taste in movies. Which is by no means a disaster.
I've only seen three movies from 2011 personally, none of them even memorable. It's been catch-up season until now for me. I missed Rango in theatres, though.
Things that were considered flaws in film-making before is now often utilised to tell a story. This and many other problems means that if want to judge a film objectively then you have make a million rules for what a good film is. Pointless and not in the interest of anyone I can think of.

I'll take IMDB over TSPDT personally, as much as both may suck.KatForsyth
