It is a scandal that this movie is #3 on IMDB's Top 250 Movies list


Let's get serious here, how is this movie so high on that list? It is baffling, I mean sure it is a good movie and all that but #3 of all time? Ridiculous.

Didn't you say this already, here and on The Batman board, just a few days ago?

TDK lives rent-free in your mind, and you're taking the 'scandal' of user ratings waaay too seriously.

The fact that The Shawshank Redemption is #1 is way more of a scandal. Great movie but not even close to the top ten (and certainly not better than The Godfather).

That list is obviously influenced by children.

I agree. It's because Ledger died which pushed the 10/10 votes.

imdb/moviechat attracts a lot of rightwing incels who are addicted to the interwebs and comic books, thus why so many superhero movies are so high in the imdb top 250. especially if its a "dark" or "gritty" superhero film.
