Flickchart pulls me in

It’s pretty basic.  Do you like this movie or that movie better?

Somehow I get drawn into playing Flickchart.com a lot longer than I had planned.  The rankings come out a little wonky for me sometimes. Here are a few top 5 lists.

Combined rankings for Best 2008 horror – 1. Let the Right One In 2. The Orphanage 3. The Midnight Meat Train 4. Diary of the Dead 5.  Teeth

My rankings for Best haunted house movies: 1. Stir of Echoes 2. The Shining 3. Monster House 4. Poltergeist 5. Dark Water – I don’t recommend Dark Water except as sleep aid.  I should have added Monster House to my own list.

Combined rankings for Best 1990s romance:  1. Edward Scissorhands 2. Titanic 3. Jerry McGuire 4. Interview with a Vampire 5. As Good as It Gets

My rankings for Best 1990s romance:  1. Romeo + Juliet 2. Strictly Ballroom 3. Edward Scissorhands 4. Clueless 5. Jane Eyre.  – at least we agree on Scissorhands.

Combined rankings for Best 1940s mystery: 1. The Third Man 2. The Maltese Falcon 3. The Big Sleep 4. Rebecca 5. Spellbound

My rankings for Best 1940s mystery: 1. Rebecca 2. Spellbound 3. The Third Man 4. The Big Sleep 5. Laura – the last kind of surprises me since I really didn’t like Laura.  The rest I have no complaints about.

Anyway, try it out if you have some time to kill.
