When I click Waking Ned Devine, it looks like I've already voted for it and given it a 4 or 5 when I don;t think I had and I wouldn;t give it a 4 or 5 if I did. Nice work anywhoo. Need more votes overall IMO.

AG/DC Mar 16 2008 08:48 PM

Yeah, I'll fix that. It's linking to my version of the page I guess. Though I don't recall being that crazy about WND either.

Clerks II beats out Citizen Kane.

AG/DC Mar 17 2008 07:55 AM

Clerks II has a fucked-up Rogers poll, and I should have included it at the bottom with the two other polls that are too fucked up to tablulate. Folks who voted four stars on that may have meant to vote four out of four or meant to vote four out of five.

Nymr83 Mar 17 2008 10:58 AM

anything with less than 5 votes should get bumped to the bottom as well.

sharpie Mar 17 2008 11:00 AM

Nymr's 5-vote rule would make Waking Ned Devine the best movie. I would wager it would show up on no other list at the #1 spot.

AG/DC Mar 17 2008 11:01 AM

No. You see the lack of data there in column three. Adjust your expectations accordingly. You also have links to see which freaks contributed to the one-vote polls. Also, think of low vote totals as invitations for more votes.

metsmarathon Mar 17 2008 11:19 AM

so if we all vote down paper clips, will edgy be forced to come up with a new list? this could be fun, like that time we did that thing with the baseball players...

AG/DC Mar 17 2008 11:33 AM

I'll update the list periodically, certainly. Though I could use some help. I may not have a toddler, but I am, in my own way, fucking exhausted.

John Cougar Lunchbucket Mar 17 2008 11:38 AM

Rather than updating the list we simply need more people to contribute reviews and vote on the ones in here. It mioght take another few years but this eventually could be a cool thing.

AG/DC Mar 17 2008 11:45 AM

Additoinally, we could get a SQL guy to make a list that spontaneously updates with each new poll or vote added.

sharpie Mar 17 2008 11:52 AM

I've made a point to vote on every movie on that list that I've seen. I've also been responsible for at least a couple of reviews of movies that no one else has seen. After a while I stopped reviewing movies that I suspect no one else here will see. For instance, I saw The Counterfeiters this weekend. I won't put up a review for I think it destined to be a one-reviewer flick.

Good job -- it let me update choices for films I've seen since the thread was created.
