Hey everyone, great to be back. Some of you might remember a similar title from a post I made back in April, where I made a list of the top 250 movies based on averaging ratings from 13 different websites. As a note, I will be releasing the statistical top 500 movies of all time in a month or two; I wanted to run this smaller list through you guys to get feedback/additional sources.
My original sources of data came from 13 websites (Rotten Tomatoes, Metacritic, IMDb, Letterboxd, TMDb, Trakt, JustWatch, Blu-Ray, FilmAffinity, Douban, Naver, MUBI, and Critics Choice). Over the last 4 months, I was able to include 10 new sources of data: 5 domestic (TSPDT, iCheckMovies, MoviesLens, RateYourMusic, and Criticker) and 5 international (the Polish Filmweb, the Russian Kinopoisk, the Czech-Slovak CSFD, the Dutch Moviemeter, and the French Senscritique). These helped make my ratings even more well-rounded and internationally representative.
In addition to including new sources of data, I significantly changed my algorithm. Rather than weighting the websites equally, I weighted them according to their Alexa ranking and their number of votes compared to others. For example, if The Godfather has hundreds of thousands of votes on Letterboxd but only a couple thousand on Metacritic, Letterboxd would be weighted more heavily. After obtaining the weighted averages, I then added the movie's iCheckMovies' favs/checks ratio and TSPDT ranking, if applicable. Regarding TSPDT, I included the top 2000 movies; as an example of my calculations, Rear Window's ranking of #41 would add (2000-41)/2000=0.9795 points to its weighted average. I removed movies that had <7-8K votes on IMDb, as these mostly had low ratings and votes across different sites as well.
Once again, I want to say that this is NOT an official ranking nor my personal ranking; it is just a statistical look at some amazing movies. I am glad to see that this list is able to cover a wide range of genres, decades, and countries. Even so, I can assure you that the top 500 movies will be even more diverse than this one.
