imdb top 250


When imdb changed its rating system for the imdb top 250, some of the most beloved movies of all-time suffered as a result. The films below have tremendous scores, but have been bumped from the top 250 because they don't have the newly required sum of 25,000 votes. If you haven't done so already, cast your vote and spread the word to get these deserving films back in the top 250!

The Best Years of Our Lives (1946)
Throne of Blood (1957)
La Grande Illusion (1937)
Les Diaboliques (1955)
Sherlock Jr. (1924)
The Passion of Joan of Arc (1928)
Tokyo Story (1953)
Fanny and Alexander (1982)
Come and See (1985)
The Battle of Algiers (1966)
Judgment at Nuremberg (1961)
Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927)
Ikiru (1952)
The Wages of Fear (1953)
Seppuku (1962)

This has an 8.3 from 18,000+ votes. What else does it need to do?

It's all rather shameless.

So sezeth I, so sezeth the world.

Wages of Fear is back in. This needs just like 1500 votes more to get in and it really deserves it.

Documentaries are not elegibe for top250

reply

I don't get that. They weren't for the longest time, then they were briefly, now they are not again. But TV documentaries are eligible for the TV Top 250. In fact, there are 7 in the top 20!

La Grande Illusion has enough votes but is not in.
Sunrise is 155.
The Passion of Joan of Arc is 156.
Come and See is 182.
Tokyo Story is 163.
Sherlock Jr. needs 2383 votes.
Seppuku aka Harakiri needs 5224 votes.

Don't listen to the negative ones; their arguments are irrational.

Thanks, that's useful.

"Koyaanisqatsi" is not really a 'documentary', but IMDB doesn't have a category
like 'experimental film'.
--
That said, I would welcome a Top250 for such a category
and a Top250 for 'documentary'...
--
These categories shouldn't need 25000 votes for a ranking...they are usually not as popular as feature films.

No! Spread the word that the Top 250 is nothing but a meaningless popularity contest and competitive sport!

Your own opinion and judgement is all that matters!
