Ehmm, what exactly do you want to know?

Everything I wanted to know is there. That is what I was saying.

3183

Ahh, ok, thanks.

The idea is now to stay for some time with 200 lists, which means for every new one I will kick an older one out. There are still over 20 lists from 2006, the first year of voting, which were never updated. Most of these members, which did not contribute much to the forum, of whom I have no idea how many Spags they had watched, whose lists could not be influenced by all the high quality releases since then, or all the recommendations made here in the forum and the data base.One even claimed not to have watched much.

The first 5 ready for going are from these members:

Lanky Gunman Vote for Our Official Top 20 - #19 by Lanky_gunman (incomplete list)
bobm Vote for Our Official Top 20 - #42 by bobm

Also noticeable is that the films from 21-40 are now getting closer and closer to the Alt Top 20 where they used to be quite different. 15 of these are now in the Alt Top 20 if in varying positions. Only Mannaja, Requiescant, Four of the Apocalypse, Vengeance and Light the Fuse are not on the alternative list currently.

Yes, probably if I would make a list counting only the amount of votes since you started the alternative list, we would have a very similar result.

Interesting to see Kill them all… on par with 3 Leone epics. Is it really that great or are you one of those who makes lists strictly based on entertainment value? (actually never seen it myself, as i prefer more complex SW:s)

But as stated: Welcome aboard!

Its in my top 20, not quite so high as that though. Just scrapes in 20th. You should give it a go, though, you may well like it, won’t know for sure otherwise.

My ratings are based on how much I enjoyed the movies. There was just something about Kill Them All that had me smiling the whole movie.

And so it should be, entertainment value should be the main criteria for every top 20.
