LMAO, cause your ratings determine automatically what is good or bad?And nobody is saying the list isn't that bad. What we're saying is this:A) You shouldn't expect anything different from a list filled out by the votes of average movie fans. Rather than simply complain about the list, you should have a much more substantial discussion. For example, rather than argue that Citizen Kane should be higher or lower or it should be a 7/10, I would rather argue its merits and faults. I would want to discuss its cinematography, themes, editing, music, and so forth. [Mod Edit] Do Not Quote that list please.

dude. i'm perfectly aware about the merits of discussion etc. i don't know why every time someone posts a list of something that someone has to come in and tell everyone, in a serious, parental tone, about how 'silly' lists are and how they prefer not to waste their time with such trivial things. personally, i like lists, and i will jovially complain about them as much as i like.

 

ps you might not want to quote my entire post.

Yeah I think we might ought to have a function of automatically hiding the most of it if we quote a long post.

Who cares what tone it is in, it's a completely valid point.

all these people saying that the list is not that bad after all...well, i'm not so sure about that:

 

Does your ranking scale go from 1(best) to 10 (worst)? 

[Darth Homer]

Yeah its pretty terrible. You'll soon find Skyfall and TDKR. 

Avengers deserves to be where it is. Funny that Skyfall and TDKR are lower even though they beat TA at the box office in the UK. People must be starting to realise how overrated those movies are, especially Skyfall.
