O.K go to the IMDB top 250 and then the bottom 100. Make a tally of how many top 250 and bottom 100 titles you've seen.

(How many more good films have you seen on here than bad)

My Score is Ive seen 41 top 250 films and 17 of the bottom 100!
interesting bottom 100s Ive seen Troll 2(Own) The Room, Hobgoblins ( Own the MST3K)
Cool as Ice( Ive watched that more than once...strange)

Some of my favorite top 250 films are Shawshank, Pulp Fiction, Dark knight(Own) Annie Hall, Ed Wood( LOVE that film I'm Glad its on the top 250)

What are some of yours?

79 of the top 250, 5 of the bottom, though I will admit 2 or 3 were because my brother and I were kids and rented whatever they had at the video store in the kids section.

I have seen 134 of the top 250. I need to get on those other 116.

Of the bottom 100 I have seen 0 of them, or perhaps a few of them as episodes of MST3k. I'm honestly not entirely sure.

93-95 (count got a bit mixed up counting in my head) out of 250... Been a looooong time since I looked at that list. It's changed A LOT. When did Good Bad and the Ugly get so high? Not that I'm complaining, I absolutely love that movie so I'm glad to see it up there but yeah. Shawshank Redemption... does not deserve number 1 but that's just me. Good movie but yeah...

As for the bottom 100... I've seen 3. Baby Geniuses (absolutely terrible terrible movie... Worst movie ever but apparently 2 is worse... which had to be a major feat), 3 Ninja's: High Noon at Megamountain, and Kazaam.

Top 250: 112.

bottom 100: 8

Kind of surprises me to see so many modern movies on the top 250, in a good way. and...why is Pulp fiction number 5 ><. I'm sorry, but I just don't understand that film's popularity at all.

As a little kid I thought Troll 2 was one of the scariest things I'd ever seen. Especially the ending.

It's really not all that surprising if you think about it. The internet is disproportionally skewed towards younger people, of whom it's fairly uncommon for them to watch movies from before they were born. Honestly I wish it were different, but there's not much that can be done about that. There are a number of movies on the top 250 that I can't imagine will go down as classics studied for decades to come. That's okay, though, because this list will make for some interesting studies for future anthropologists.

Even still, it's got a good mix.

Because Tarantino is a top-tier film director. Not only is his cinematographic skill top-notch, but he makes his films very dialogue-driven. Something that so many movies fail to accomplish.

I clearly recall seeing at least 34 movies out of the top 250 list, and 3 out of the bottom 100. There were a few titles that sounded familiar, but I couldn't recall whether or not I've seen them. I chose not to count those ones.

I know I've seen plenty of movies (obviously not a part of the top 250.) The problem is recalling all of them and making a list like on MAL. I'd like to so I could revisit some of the stuff I saw years ago and see what I think of them now, but there's just too much for me to remember.

Anyways, it looks like I've got the lowest count so far.

I can't resist a good list.

On the top I had 53/250. My tour through classic science fiction movies served me well, as did watching large quantities of animated children's movies. Unsurprisingly, I also picked up quite a few from recent summer blockbusters.

For the bottom I got 2/100, Troll 2 and the Girl in Gold Boots, both of which were MST3K renditions.

Troll 2 was on MST3K? I thought it had a RiffTrax.

And I forgot one: Red Zone Cuba, which appears on the list as Night Train to Mundo Fine. Also from MST3k.

At 27 and 0, I relieve you of that dubious distinction . . . or would if it weren't for the fact that Edward's count is lower still. I don’t watch movies very often.

33 from the Top 250. Highest ranking was 12 Angry Men. I should start watching more movies.

2 from the Bottom 100: Manos and Soultaker. Both are MST3K movies.
