Top 250 Films - How many have you seen?

Hamzter · 25 Oct 2009 at 16:33

I came across the IMDB top 250 films list earlier today, I was a bit disappointed to find I'd only watched 85 of them

I've decided I'm going to make that up to 100 by christmas

So how many have you seen?

IMDB Top 250 Films

CBA to count through 250 films right now.

Edit: Also IMDB lists are so pretentious.

26 of the top 50 comedies of all time are foreign, and 12 of the English ones were made before 1950. I'm sure they're frickin' side-splitting. :/

Me either.

I managed 16 of the first 25 then ran out of fingers and mental capacity.

If I'm honest - not as many as I would like. By a long way too.

About 125. I really want to see Let The Right One In.

Hudzy · 25 Oct 2009 at 17:07

Only 26

Shocking.

Most of them, the ones I haven't seen are either foreign or really old.

Edit - 92 actually. Could have sworn I've seen a lot more. Scanning the rest there's quite a few that don't really appeal to me.

I have e.g. 12 Angry Men and the Godfather series but I just don't have the motivation to see them.

tntcoder · 25 Oct 2009 at 17:28

92

will have to make an effort to see more sometime

Saying that theres a lot of crap films on the IMDB top lists i.e Dark Knight, Wall-E, Up...

jp_bl_68 · 25 Oct 2009 at 17:35

Yeah, I'm surprised Zombieland and Snatch made it in there. God bless fanboys.

Only 91 so far, but plan to get that over the 100 mark over the next few weeks.

chrisd · 25 Oct 2009 at 18:06

Only seen 70 but I blame that on it being the worst list i've ever seen

melchy · 25 Oct 2009 at 18:14

Most of them, but seriously Blade Runner listed at 113

marc2003 · 25 Oct 2009 at 18:15

WTF is children of men doing on there? :confused:

i've seen 72 -quite surprised really. i thought it would have been much less before i started.

Mr-White · 25 Oct 2009 at 18:23

69, most of the old ones I haven't seen

Big Kev · 25 Oct 2009 at 18:32

180, although I think I may have seen some more as well, but I can't remember.

Irish_Tom · 25 Oct 2009 at 18:36

110 according to that list but I don't agree with a few of the titles on there.

Most of those I haven't seen are foreign/old.

Good comedy is timeless.

And what does it matter where it's from?
