Okay, I just checked IMDb's math forumla for putting movies in the top 50s. I can see it's reasons, but at the same time, it's one of the reasons I'm not too fond of IMDb's rating system....
The biggest miss here is Stop Making Sense. From what I've seen, it just might be the best concert film ever. It has an 8.1 IMDb score, higher than others on the list...
@ninkira: I disagree. There's just so much in the "Redux" version that's unnecessary. Still, it's not as bad as some other Director Cuts, like Cinema Paradiso's.
You can complain about the list all you want, but (and I have the book, 2008 edition I think) it's great for discovering films you've never even heard of before. and it's a lot of fun to just flick through.

Phenomenally bad.Movie comment on Memento

@viet-tan: Let's be honest here, the story itself in Memento is pretty average. The thing that makes the movie is how the story is told.Movie comment on Drive

@koshthethird: Eh, you get used to it. Read up about what Gilliam said the title means, then it might make more sense.Movie comment on Raiders of the Lost Ark
