Metacritic's Highest Rated Movies of All Time
Favs/dislikes: 11:0. The 100 movies on the review aggregate website Metacritic with the highest metascore. -
Movies That Provoke Strong Feelings
Favs/dislikes: 8:0. Are you tired of watching movies that are just kind of...eh...? Then watch one of these movies and you'll likely love or hate it! Even if you hate it, hey, at least it made you feel something, right? Here's the formula: (favorites + dislikes) / checks, considering only movies with at least 100 checks. -
Polarizing Movies
Favs/dislikes: 8:0. Movies with a significant number of both favorites and dislikes. I combined several "polarizing" formulas into one big super formula to calculate this list. -

Wikipedia's List of Films Considered the Best
Favs/dislikes: 7:0. Here are all of the movies from Wikipedia's article "List of films considered the best" except those listed only for specific countries. -
Conversation Starters
Favs/dislikes: 6:0. If you want to have something to talk about with a friend, watch one of these movies together and you should be set for conversation for a while. I didn't select each of these movies individually; rather, I used a stupidly complicated "discussability" formula that I devised to generate this list. I have another list called "Discussable Movies" with a better formula, but I lost that formula and couldn't recreate it, so this here is my best attempt. -
Movies to Fight About
Favs/dislikes: 6:0. Do you like to disagree with others about whether a given movie is good or bad? Then I have just the list for you! Assuming the relationship between favorites, dislikes and checks reflects the chances of people in the general population to love or hate a movie, these movies are the ones you'll most likely find yourself arguing the merit of with someone else who has seen them. Have fun with that! Here's the formula: (favorites * dislikes) / (checks^2), considering only movies with at least 100 checks -

Cinema Interruptus
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. This is a list of every movie dissected at the CWA Cinema Interruptus since its inception in 1975. From Wikipedia: "One of the most popular events of the [C]onference [on World Affairs] is the Cinema Interruptus, hosted for many years by film critic Roger Ebert. Ebert selected one movie and showed it late afternoon at the beginning of the week, in a normal, uninterrupted way. Then, for a total of 8 hours spread over the following four afternoons, the movie was dissected almost on a frame-by-frame basis. Ebert, or anybody else in the audience, could pause the movie at any point, and comment about any aspect: plot points, acting or directing techniques, camera movement, frame composition, etc." -
Discussable Movies
Favs/dislikes: 2:0. If you want to have something to talk about with a friend, watch one of these movies together and you should be set for conversation for a while. I didn't select each of these movies individually; rather, I used a stupidly complicated "discussability" formula that I devised to generate this list. The formula is surely imperfect, but I'm happy with it at the present time. -
