The Irish Times Best 50 Irish Movies
Favs/dislikes: 7:1. IN VERY PARTICULAR ORDER, HERE’S OUR (CURRENTLY DEFINITIVE) PICK OF THE GREATEST IRISH MOVIES EVER MADE No sane person will sincerely claim that the ranking of cultural entities is anything other than a sophisticated parlour game. When it comes to Irish film, however, the debate will invariably focus less on relative placings – whether Garage is better than The Quiet Man – than on how we are defining our terms. Is The Quiet Man Irish at all? It was financed by an American studio and set in a fanciful version of the real nation. When testing a novel for Irishness, we need focus our attention on the writer alone. Colm Tóibín’s The Master may be set in England and published by a British house, but nobody would claim it was anything other than an Irish book. John Crowley’s adaptation of Tóibín’s Brooklyn is Irish as well. But it’s also British and a little bit Canadian. A co-production of the BBC and the Irish Film Board (among others), it quite reasonably competed for awards at both the British and Irish Academies. Few of the films on this list pass the purity test for absolute uncorrupted Irishness. Our rules are looser than some may prefer. Significant numbers of Irish personnel is a factor. Notable levels of Irish funding scores you a few more points on our jerry-rigged scale. Shooting a film in Ireland gets you a long way down the road, but, as should be obvious, external productions that use the country as a stand-in for somewhere else aren’t getting anywhere with the jury. Neither Saving Private Ryan (Normandy in Wexford) nor The Spy Who Came in from the Cold (the Berlin Wall in Smithfield) was up for consideration. Setting a film in Ireland is not in itself a qualification. We would never have been much tempted by Waking Ned, a British production filmed in the Isle of Man, but Yann Demange’s 1971, a British film shot in Liverpool and Sheffield, would have walked in if Northern Ireland Screen had lured the filmmakers to the real Belfast. Decisions also had to be made as to what we mean by a feature film. We settled on a production made for theatrical exhibition that exceeds 70 minutes. Pat O’Connor’s fine The Ballroom of Romance fails on two counts. It is a television production that comes in at 65 minutes. (At the 1983 Bafta awards, it won in the TV section, not the film race). Playing hardball on length, we had to regretfully exclude the early work of Vivienne Dick, Bob Quinn’s legendary Poitín and more recent films such as Graham Seely and Kevin Brannigan’s The Man With the Hat. The final ranking is – as all such rankings must be – the creation of a fleeting mood. The order may have been different an hour or so later. It is not, however, a ranking of Irishness. Once a film has qualified it competes equally with all others. Some may reasonably think our top film among the least Irish of the bunch. So be it. Having made the grade, we asked only whether it is better than the rest. The answer today was “yes”. Tomorrow, who knows? -

Time Out's best horror films
Favs/dislikes: 48:1. Time Out proudly presents the 100 best horror movies, as chosen by those who write in, direct, star in and celebrate the genre. Time Out polled well over 100 horror enthusiasts – including big names like Roger Corman, Guillermo del Toro, Simon Pegg, Clive Barker and Alice Cooper, and horror legends like Coffin Joe, Kim Newman and Tom Six – and came up with a definitive top 100 list. The list was first produced in 2012. The list was revised in 2016 with the inclusion of new voters, including Stephen King. After the top 100 I have included the runners up: every film nominated by the contributers. -
TimeOut's 1000 Films to change your life (2006)
Favs/dislikes: 3:1. Films are sorted by the order they appear in the book (including stills). Note: some films appear or are mentioned several times throughout the book. If a film is mentioned in more than one chapter it is listed under the chapter it is first mentioned (i.e. not necessarily the chapter the film is discussed the most). "Confession: there are, in fact, 1158 films mentioned in 1000 Films. Happy viewing!" #1-14: First pages & Introduction #15-159: Joy #160-301: Anger #302-442: Food for thought #443-533: Desire #534-616: Fear #617-720: Sadness #721-899: Exhilaration #900-1024: Regret #1025-1086: Contempt #1087-1162: Wonder (#1163: Only picture of the poster) (#1164-1177: Index of titles) (#1178: Penultimate page) "My Girl 2" should not really count as the inclusion of that movie is a typo. Films mentioned in the sections "Contributors", "Useful websites" and "100 to watch" (100 reviews of films - all of which are featured in the book - taken from Time Out Film Guide that in turn mention other films) are not listed. + Page 100: "Flight" Page 102: "End of Restriction" -

Top 150 LGBT Films
Favs/dislikes: 13:1. This is an updated list of my [url=http://www.icheckmovies.com/lists/top+100+homosexual+themed+movies/chantana/]previous version.[/url] I no longer separate between "serious" movies and movies with explicit sexual content as this distinction is idiosyncratic altogether. Many lists were updated or became longer. There will be no more ranking and calculating. The new system works much easier. Movies are sorted by the amount of times they were mentioned in the lists. New lists can be suggested and I am more than happy to find more interesting lists on the broad genre. There are essential gaps in the spheres of New Queer Cinema and LBGT porn. Both should find their way into a list like this and I am looking for good resources. One of which is Rich's brilliant book on the NQC. This is the fourth version of this list, which I update about once a year. As in the years before there is a slight increase in films. The complete list features 586 films.

100 Greatest English-Language Films - Dennis Grunes
Favs/dislikes: 0:0. One of the greatest film critics of ever, if not the greatest, lists his 100 greatest English Language Films. "This list is chronological, although if there are multiple entries for a given year I have ranked those entries, beginning with my favorite among them. The list reflects my one hundred favorite English-language films, then—at a particular moment, that is, on a particular day. Again, one hundred is a finite, unforgiving number, and everything including the kitchen sink dramas from England can’t make it in. Here are the one hundred films, then, by year, through 2007." The final film is "Passages" by Jon Jost. Available on vimeo. -
