not only that, it's very obvious that younger groups rate more films
on IMDB so many of the great older films are now farther down on teh
list than newer releases these groups are familiar with
How can a 35 year old rate Ben Hur or M if he's never seen these films??
and on the 9200 list.. he clearly says some of these selections have
been submitted by other reviewers as he couldn't take on the work
himself in total

Those IMDB ratings are just as skewed as Bourland's or anybody's

So a list is a list is a list.

wonder: How did he rate 9,200 movies when he says he has only seen
7,000 of them)? But his ratings amount to only one man's opinion
of those films, whereas you can go to a place like IMdb.com and see
a rating on just about any film ever made that reflects a
compilation of many viewers opinions.
