August 29, 2023 -
After embarking on this journey to come up with my own statistical "1001 Movies You Must See Before You Die" list almost 3 years ago, I have finally finished this massive project and am pumped to share with all of you. Here are my top 250 and 500 movies lists from 2020 for comparison.
I went through data from 30 different websites this time for almost 5000 movies, including from the classic Rotten Tomatoes / IMDb / Metacritic sites to international gems like Moviepilot / Filmweb / CSFD / Douban, etc. There remains work to be done on weighting, compiling, and updating; building a platform that provides real-time rankings and data of every single movie ever released is the ultimate goal. Ambitious and maybe impossible, but we can dream. Feel free to share your feedback and ideas, or just reach out to me through this form.
In the lead up to the top 1001 movies' full release, here are the best 100 movies on that list. I will be releasing the top 500 movies next Tuesday, and the final 1001 movies list on 9/15!
Come support through Buy Me a Coffee, or simply share this project with all of your cinephile friends. Hope you find some gems on here.

I've seen the majority of this list. There are a lot of great films listed. However, movies can be similar to sports in that critics seem to overvalue older films (athletes) and undervalue/over criticize newer ones. Similar to Lebron versus Bill Russell it is hard to compare modern movies to anything made prior to 1970. Both can be great in their own way, but they are almost different forms of art.

September 16, 2025 - Forget what the Oscars crowned as the Best Picture of 2005: Ang Lee’s tragic gay romance is the nominee that stands the test of time. Anchored by Rodrigo Prieto’s swoonworthy cinematography and a wistful Heath Ledger (whose performance toppled societal perceptions of masculinity), Brokeback Mountain is a milestone in LGBTQ art-house cinema. It reimagined the Western genre and became a part of the zeitgeist. Why is it one of the greatest films of all time?

The 50 Greatest Movies of All Time, Ranked
February 23, 2024 - While the 1950s was likely the greatest decade for the movie musical (and several of them, such as The Band Wagon, Singin' in the Rain, Seven Brides for Seven Bothers, and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes, could easily be included here or in a top 100), it was Bob Fosse's pair of 1970s musicals, Cabaret and All That Jazz, which are arguably the two greatest of all time.
