Flickchart News

After a 2012 of seeing, quite frankly, too many movies, and watching too many award shows filled with snubs, Flickchart users have once again voted for their favorites from the last year in a variety of categories. In the first ever Flickcharters’ Choice Awards, users picked Drive as their best film of the year.

Once again this year, Flickchart users voted on their nominees, then once all votes were tallied, voted on their favorites in each category. 2012 was a great year in film, making it even harder to narrow the bests of the year to just five, then to one final winner. Through hard choices, fantastic films, and even some awful disappointments, the winners are finally here. So without further ado, here are your 2nd Annual Flickcharters’ Choice Awards Winners!

Disney Movies Online has been the digital streaming service for the company since 2008. If you had a Disney Magic Rewards account, whenever you redeemed the code for any Disney DVD or Blu-ray Disc that included a Digital Copy, you also unlocked a streaming copy of that film through your Disney Movies Online account. It was all automatic; you didn’t have to do anything except redeem your Magic Rewards Code and Disney did the rest for you.

Flickchart at its core is about two big things: helping you discover and rank movies to develop a coherent chart of your favorites, and mashing everyone’s individual charts into a globe-straddling list of the greatest movies of all time. All the other stuff — social features, recommendations, and so on — flow from these overarching pair of concepts. If either are broken, it’ll ripple through the site in ways small and large.
