Click here for information about this ranking

I've been getting into watching movies recently, but there are so many "Top Movies" lists out there that it's hard to know what to follow.

Movies probably have the most interesting "ranking" scene I've seen, as the rankings created by movie critics (e.g. Sight and Sound) are dramtically different from the rankings you'd see from cinephiles (letterboxd) or casual watchers (imdb).

This is my attempt at creating a single list that aggregates the entire range of perspectives and rankings into one place. (although finding a balance is hard)

This list doesn't necessarily reflect what the "best" films are (that's extremely subjective), but rather what films are most likely to be well-recieved in spite of any one person's relationship with movies.

My own ranking and opinion has no sway over this list. But you can see what I'd call my favorites here.

the movies i've watched have

I'll be re-doing this soon, this is my old top movies list.
