Total Recall
Actually in this list there are only 10 movies I could watch till the end...others just are a pure shit.
- So Total Recall is the best movie ever, instead of say, Citizen Kane? 220.253.12.35 06:29, 16 November 2007 (UTC) byrnes777
To be or not to be
This list forgets "To be or not to be" by Ernst Lubitsch, which is considered (at least in France) as one of the greatest film ever made. Maybe Wikipedia should create its own list. Alexander Doria 17:12, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- Yeah a Wikipedia list would be great. LMAO
- I think that that would be considered original research, which is not allowed. We can only report on lists that others have created, outside the project (as long as they are notable). To Be or Not to Be (1942 film) is also not listed at Films considered the greatest ever, I'm not sure where you might go to find a list that it is on. - Trevor MacInnis (Contribs) 23:26, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- In the French Encyclopedia "Quid" I read (page 389 B): "According to the review Positf (…) the most important films are (1992's referendum): La règle du jeu, Citizen Kane (…) To be or not to be". (Lubitsch's film is the 17th on a list of 21 films). And, the article Films considered the greatest ever precisely quote this review which stands as an international institution. Then, isn't it an irregularity? Alexander Doria 15:00, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Maybe so, but is not a mistake on Wikipedia's part that the movie is not on this particular list. This list is taken directly from here. We don't change it or make observations about it in any way. If you wish you could try making a page called X 's list of important films or whatever. I couldn't find the reference you mentioned above so I'm not sure how to name the article. Hope this helps. - Trevor MacInnis (Contribs)
