IMDB votelists

John · Post by **John** » 25 May 2008, 17:28

Hey, I created a new topic where I want you to give URLs to your IMDB votelists. This way we can compare ratings, make fun of those who put 8/10 on Crossroads and just generally discuss the movies we've seen. Also this is a great way to get a few extra movies to your own list, since we all probably have forgotten about some movies from few years back.

My movies
I've seen more movies than that but I havent voted for all Bond-movies for example since I can't tell which is which.

Now please give yours :*

First of all it was 8-ball who gave it a 1/10 :) second of all it was nat that great movie really. (I put an average 5/10)
If u want a good movie about 9/11 i suggest u watch this documentary: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0312318/ Its a documentary by 2 french brothers and filmmakers following a rookie firefighter in New York until one day when they get swept into the real deal ;x filmed from inside one of the collapsing towers and shit. Seen it x amount of times, prolly 3-5 times.

Alma · Post by **Alma** » 26 May 2008, 01:54

iÂ´ve seen it.. and i still thinks thats worls trade center is a great movie... but then Nicolas Cage is my favorite actor of all time, maybe thats why i like the movie

Some quite unusual ratings there. Did u seriously put 10/10 on Crossroads or did u do it just becuz of my first post here? :)

One nice way to keep this topic going (nat the most interesting topic, I know) would be if once u update ur votelist with a new movie, write it down here. The movie, ur rating, and some short comment on how u were thinking when u put that rating, semilong reviews would be appreciated too.

Kopaka · Post by **Kopaka** » 27 May 2008, 09:51

I voted it that years ago. Many of my earlier votes I would most likely vote lower if voting them today, though probably not Crossroads <3

I also have a listsofbests list of my favorite movies http://www.listsofbests.com/list/27397 aswell as my own movie site http://sshoyer.net/movies/

Pi and Survive Style 5+ caught my interest. Classmates has been talking about those and now when I see u have put 10's on both I have to check them out during summer.

i really don't get it how you can rate '300' the same as, well, let's not say 'citizen kane', but 'the labyrinth of the faun'. and give 'o brother where art thou' another chance, it's definitely worth it:)
all in all, i gave up watching movies few years ago, unfortunately, but this list makes me wanna start again.

Survive Style propably the overall best movie I ever saw.

noni: ye my list kinda sucks, often votet directly after the movie, soon changed mind, but didnt change vote. I was impressed by the action sequences of 300 so I gave it a 10 in the beginning. I am one of those guys who might say "great movie" even if story obviously sucks.

John · Post by **John** » 28 May 2008, 18:15

I duno but to me, movies are like 50/50 - story/visuals (different from movie to movie)... I think 300 was freakin sweet to see in the theatres, sach nice style in every scene. Well ye story wasnt max, but if u want a good story u might aswell pick up and read a good book

John · Post by **John** » 7 Jun 2008, 23:11

New movie to my list:
Fido - 5/10

Downloaded the movie on random about a month ago, watched it tonight. It was a decent one-time-watch but I wouldnt really recommend it. Trinity was in it tho :*

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0457572/

John · Post by **John** » 8 Jun 2008, 19:17

Be kind rewind - 4/10
quite a disappointment

8-ball · Post by **8-ball** » 9 Jun 2008, 12:18

Gave 9 to Irreversible, I love reverse-chronological storytelling

And the movie was pretty brutal.

nony · Post by **nony** » 11 Jun 2008, 08:04

did this quite recently and it's probably missing more than three quarters of the movies i have seen. most of the votes have also been based on my feelings/age at the time when seeing that movie.

http://www.imdb.com/mymovies/list?l=36995370

John · Post by **John** » 11 Jun 2008, 23:50

my 600th movie... watched Hitman last nite but gave it only an average 5/10. quite coal action but nat very good acting by some. Casting Olyphant as Agent 47 was a good move imo.

Would have been a lot coaler if they had made some cartoonish version. Kinda like film noir/anime combined, lot of black, white and red. Good voiceactors doesnt grow on trees tho

John · Post by **John** » 14 Jun 2008, 23:11

The talented Mr Ripley, duno what to say. My sister and I just laughed at how creepy and gay Matt Damon was, still it was quite a decent movie so i put 6/10 at imdb ;o

John · Post by **John** » 15 Jun 2008, 01:53

Just watched Flood (2007), was sach predictable and stupid that i only gave it 3/10. It had some entertainmentvalue from time to time tho and some of the CGI of water flooding into the city was quite coal, some shots it sucked too.

nony · Post by **nony** » 15 Jun 2008, 09:12

watched Numb - 6/10, and, last night on TV, Little Odessa - 7/10, but should be closer to 8.

Palme · Post by **Palme** » 15 Jun 2008, 22:41

I just scrolled through your movies and rated for those

Kopaka · Post by **Kopaka** » 1 Jul 2008, 09:57

Recently watched:

The Constant Gardener: Had that kinda slowness feeling to it which made it kind of boring, but still a 6/10
Chaos Theory 8/10
Definitely, Maybe Sweet romance along with a couple of awesome actors <3 9/10
Mama's Boy 7/10
The Girl in the Park 8/10

bob · Post by **bob** » 2 Jul 2008, 03:24

i saw Kung Fu Panda last night. A very simple storyline, but it was still quite good - just a fun movie with quite a few laughs. Jack Black fit the character well. 7.5/10

i also saw the previews for WALL-E last night for the first time, i had never heard of it, and by the previews it didn't seem very funny for a typical animated Pixar film. On IMDB though, people have been giving it great reviews, and it's currently sitting 6th on the Top 250, but I'm sure that it will go down in time. Has anyone seen it?

John · Post by **John** » 2 Jul 2008, 10:05

Im looking forward to see WALL-E, seems like another great Pixarmovie.

New movie to my list is Bullitt. Nat as good as i had expected, it felt kinda slow to me. 5/10. Does anyone know other movies with carchases in San Francisco? must be quite a lot of them.

Igge · Post by **Igge** » 13 Jul 2008, 23:13

couldnt give it more than 7, despite being a very good movie, because there are simply so many better ones.

Costya · Post by **Costya** » 14 Jul 2008, 15:23

i also think that Goodbye Lenin is great movie (9/10) but it's much more close for people from ex-socilast countries, so the differnce in ratings is occured.

John · Post by **John** » 15 Jul 2008, 01:44

The Mist - 7/10 almost whane put 8/10

Snatch - 8/10

John · Post by **John** » 20 Jul 2008, 20:17

Vantage Point - 7/10

was fast paced popcorn-action, i kinda liked it...

Costya · Post by **Costya** » 20 Jul 2008, 21:35

Vantage Point becoming more and more worse after 3/4 storyline. and ending is just awfull. i have no criteria between 2 and 5 of 10, but place it somewhere there.

aa god, havn't seen but i do hate when movies begin awesomely, but end like crap. like 'the day after tomorrow' i think, first half was awesome, but then like second half just lame and boring.

whats wrong with the ending? we get to see how everyone's story ties together "Crash-style" (hoho)...

#SPOILER#
did we ever get to hear the reason why Kent went from good guy to bad guy? seems like he had been quite some time in the Secret Service already

Costya · Post by **Costya** » 20 Jul 2008, 23:21

spoilers about ending
meeting of these people in one point is simply unreal (2 or 3 storylines has no any logic)
driver drove emergency car perfect in traffic but when he see a little girl (it's the most logicless storyline) who he can easily pass, or kill (as he kill much more children at the square), or doing something else but not this crazy drift.
but it will be normal happy end in any other film but this. with this ending films turn into propaganda of democratic USA government which can unleash the war with such terroristic regimes as in Afganistan, Iraq (what a lie). Such ending state that USA system is strong and they can do whatever they want. Such ending justify their international politics as in questions of past (long list of countries where intrvention of seeding-the-democracy-USA comes into wars, civil wars, revolutions and so on) as in questions of present and future.
I can't take such rough propagandistic lying end which devalvates the whole film.
