How does Black Swan only average 8.0? Clearest 10 ever
There has never been a more perfectly made and performed film than Black Swan.
shareAgree! My special question why this movie isn't in Top 250 Movies anymore.. What a shame!
There's something wrong with Esther.
Especially when you look at the films that have made the top 250! Ridiculous.
shareNormally this movie should be in Top 250. Easily it's one of the best movie I've ever seen.

Why do you even care ? I think the most important thing is that this movie is on your top list. I loved this movie and gave it 8 but I understand why so many people score it lower. It's not a movie for everybody, and even if people like it doesn't have to resonate with them enough to get 10. You also have to take into consideration that many people nowadays have a binary scoring system, movies are either "Best movie ever" (10), or "Worst movie I've ever seen" (1), add marketing firms scoring movies with thousands of dummy accounts and that's why for example every blockbuster starts with 8+.
As far as Aranofsky's movies I love "Requiem for a Dream" (10) and "Pi" (9) better. We all have different tastes so no point arguing about it.

Your post is helpful, and I respect your opinion. But there's too many movies that doesn't deserve to be in the top 250.
E.g.: The movies which doesn't deserve in the top 250 were shot one month or less, and then Boyhood is shot 12 years. It was in Top 250 Movies and then gone after one year. It's a great movie!
