    Flickchart: Rank Your Top Movies

    http://www.flickchart.com/


    Flickchart is a website that lets you:
    • rank movies to create your own personal list of favorites by using the Flickchart matchup system

    That's basically it. There's more involved, but the site lets you choose what you truly believe are the best movies by pitting two movies against each other and asking you to choose which of the two you like (you can also choose to say you haven't seen one or the other to void the matchup).

    I figured it would be cool to see what people here on OS think are the top movies. I've also done a pretty good job of running my mouth lately on movies and it's only fair that I throw myself out there and share this with the community.

    It's in beta so you need to sign up. I have 5 invites and then those invites will have 5 invites. So, we can add people pretty easily.

    My Top 20 based on 303 movies.

    Updated:

    1 GoodFellas 1990 Martin Scorsese
    2 Edward Scissorhands 1990 Tim Burton
    3 The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King 2003 Peter Jackson
    4 Back to the Future 1985 Robert Zemeckis
    5 The Prestige 2006 Christopher Nolan
    6 American Beauty 1999 Sam Mendes
    7 Forrest Gump 1994 Robert Zemeckis
    8 Saving Private Ryan 1998 Steven Spielberg
    9 Beauty and the Beast 1991 Gary Trousdale
    10 Taxi Driver 1976 Martin Scorsese
    11 Million Dollar Baby 2005 Clint Eastwood
    12 Reservoir Dogs 1992 Quentin Tarantino
    13 Rain Man 1988 Barry Levinson
    14 Finding Nemo 2003 Andrew Stanton
    15 The Godfather 1972 Francis Ford Coppola
    16 The Usual Suspects 1995 Bryan Singer
    17 Inside Man 2006 Spike Lee
    18 A Beautiful Mind 2002 Ron Howard

                                  I sent out the last of my invites (except for the two people I'm waiting for email addresses from. You know who you are. Check your PMs).

                                              Pretty accurate, though I'd have Groundhog Day up there. It hasn't come up against top 20 competition though.

                                                          Sounds pretty cool. If there are any invites left I'll take one.
