One of the missing Ain't Nobody's Blues titles has finally been added to the IMDb (had to submit twice to get it through) -

This list is actually identified as "Bollywood's Best Films" - not specifically a Top 100.

Here are the source articles for the list:

Sure, I'll give "So that You Can Live" a shot.

You guys are missing five films from The Ain't nobody's blues list, 3 of them aren't on Imdb...


Which three are missing from the IMDb? I can try to pull together enough to get them added.

The Website is about counting movies , will the Tv Episodes in version 2.0 count as movies ?

cuz i think it will interfere with the concept and the goal of this great website.
The number of checks listed on your page will be the total number of titles you've marked as seen - including titles that only appear on personal lists (which may include TV episodes). Similar to how that number now includes titles which have fallen off the official lists.

But the number that goes towards your chart-ranking will only include titles on the official lists.

They already exclude non-listed titles when determining your overall ranking.

If you look at your page (http://www.icheckmovies.com/profile/intermezzo/) it says you have 906 checks, which includes the non-listed titles.

But if you click on your chart location (http://www.icheckmovies.com/profile/top/page+84/#intermezzo) you can see that only 893 of those titles count towards your ranking.

silhuzz -

Generally speaking, you'll be able to create lists of TV shows or lists of TV episodes. Anything as long as it has its own IMDb page.

IMDb's coverage of TV shows is spotty though, particularly for non-US programming, so you may need to submit shows and/or episodes to the IMDb before you can create complete lists over here.

Evenhurst has provided you with the direct link, but in case you wanted to know how to navigate to that page...

Go to *Movies* then *Unchecked* then click on *Number of top list entries*

@ErikSchierboom

I don't suppose you have the current 5th edition list in that format :-)

re: 1001 Movies 6th edition

Here's the publisher's page for the 2009 edition: http://www.octopusbooks.co.uk/books/general/9781844036806/1001-movies/

The index, listing all the films, is available at Amazon: http://www.amazon.co.uk/1001-Movies-You-Must-Before/dp/1844036804/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1270644539&sr=1-1

Okay, my formatting made that indecipherable. Trying again -

Hover over the Movies tab, click on Unchecked then click on Number of Top List Entries.

Would also like a function that crossreferenced the movies that I have not seen, and told me whitch movies would give me best impact on my lists. In other words, witch movies is listet often in all the lists (si fi, boxoffi., year, critic,).
Hover over the tab and click on , then I think you'll see what you're looking for.

Excellent - thanks especially for the Japanese, animated, Western, and short film lists.

Re: the Brief Encounters list - the IMDb Classic Film board compiled a complementary list focused on animated shorts and directors. It can be found here: http://alsolikelife.com/shooting/2009/08/100-important-directors-of-animated-short-films/

To answer my own question, it looks like the magazine refers to the list as "Bollywood's Best Films" rather than as a top 100 - which would explain why there are fewer than 100 titles listed.

Good to see some non-western lists (though I only netted 18 more checks overall). I'd love to see additional country/language specific lists.

Curious as to why the Top 100 Bollywood film list only has 83 titles?

I like the ability to mark disliked movies - thanks for adding. Any chance of adding a "disliked" criteria to the IMDb Vote History import process, so that any title with less than a specified rating is automatically marked as disliked?
