TDK is all-time Jul. 21, 2008
Source: IMDb.com
by: James Thoo


THE DARK KNIGHT is currently ranked at #1 on IMDb.com's all-time top 250 list. It now sits pretty above THE GODFATHER, THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION and THE GODFATHER II. As we reported, the movie just pulled in some major coin at the box office, smashing SPIDERMAN 3's all-time biggest weekend opening in the process.

In other news, the film has also been reported to have strange healing properties that scientists are looking into as possible alternative cancer treatments, and as a supermodel aphrodesiac. When reached for a comment, the Almighty winked, gave a thumbs up and said "you're welcome, guys".

I AGREE
that IMDB isn't the most loyal 'news source' to follow, but the difference here is that USERS have voted it to that spot, not employees/critics/writers.

THE DARK KNIGHT was, plain and simple, an amazing movie.

That said, we're talking about IMDB here. The same website that saw Joblo's April Fool's article about Kate Beckinsale being cast as Wonder Woman (back when Joss Whedon was still working on it) and ran it as fact.

I think that right there just goes to show you how much IMDB is to be trusted.

IT'S IMDB...
I dunno, I loved The Dark Knight and everything but I really think if IMDb wants its list to be taken a little more seriously then it should tighten the criteria for what can and can't make it onto the top 250.

Maybe a flick should have to be out for say, 3 to 6 months before it can be considered. I mean, just to put things in perspective, this time last year Die Hard 4 had a spot somewhere on the list. It even made it into the top 100 I think.

So yeah, maybe they should just wait a while for the opening weekend frenzy to cool down before considering it for the top 250. The real test of a film's quality isn't how it's thought of on opening weekend, but how it's thought of 10 or more years down the track.

As I said, I loved The Dark Knight and would definitely put it somewhere in my own personal Top 50 list, but its position at #1 now is nothing more than hype, which kinda detracts from the credibility of that list.

Case in point: Titanic used to be at #1

IT'S NOT THE BEST MOVIE OF ALL TIME...
...but you can't blame math for doing its job. People see the movie and immediately vote on IMDB, it's that simple. I don't think everyone was rating it based on, "well, was it better than The Godfather?" Of course not. You can expect to see any movie with enough hype, star-power and appeal that does WELL to get in the Top 10 of that IMDB list. It doesn't translate anywhere close to the AFI Top Films. Everyone chill.

I had no idea people took the IMDB 250 so seriously. This will average out as time goes on. Several movies jump into the 250 in their first weekend and then drift off. I personally did give DK a 10 because I give movies a 10 that completely satisfy me and that I have few to no problems with. But that's the problem with IMDB, that is my scale that I vote by. They don't have a stated scale for what voting for a given movie means. I vote for a film based on it's own merits, others might vote based on comparison with other movies or place in movie history. All could be right, but IMDB doesn't tell us. As such their list basically means nothing. And, like Peter Griffin, I did not care for The Godfather.
