As of today’s post (my 100th on Flickchart!), I’ve now been using Flickchart for 555 days, watched 756 movies (I keep a movie diary), ranked 1900 movies 50000 times and generally had a swell time. If there was a Flickchart for websites, I’d click on Flickchart’s “poster” every time.
Rank the week of January 11th’s Blu-ray and DVD new releases against the best movies ever made:
The Social Network (DVD and Blu-ray | PG-13 | 2010)
 |
Rank it amongst the best biopics of all time.
Flickchart Ranking: #27
|
The Story of Facebook’s origins is brilliant director David Fincher’s latest. It’s ranked number two on Flickchart’s list of the best movies of 2010.
Piranha 3D (DVD and 2D/3D Blu-ray | R | 2010)
 |
Rank it amongst the best horror comedy movies of all time.
Flickchart Ranking: #2563
|
Killer fish, gore and copious nudity. If you’re into that type of thing (and really, who isn’t?), Piranha should go over very well with you.
Louis C.K.: Hilarious (DVD | NR | 2010)
 |
Rank it amongst the best concert movies of all time.
Flickchart Ranking: #5172
|
Louis C.K. is without a doubt the best comedian working right now. His stand-up is brilliant, his new TV show is brilliant and his first directorial effort, Pootie Tang, is brilliant.
Alpha and Omega (Blu-ray and DVD | PG | 2010)
 |
Rank it amongst the best animated movies of all time.

Rank November 23rd’s Blu-ray and DVD releases against the best films of all-time
The Expendables (DVD and Blu-ray | R | 2010)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best action movies of all time?
Flickchart Ranking: #2363
|
I was a little bummed walking out of the theater for The Expendables. I don’t remember a car ride home with my friends that quiet since we saw The Passion of the Christ. It had a few things working in its favor (Jet Li, the threesome scene and Terry Crews‘ gun) but ultimately just fell kinda flat. And one of the characters living at the end has surpassed the son surviving in The War of the Worlds as the most illogical and silliest ‘hey look, that guy is still alive, though we totally showed him dying’ moments in movie history.
Eat Pray Love (DVD and Blu-ray | PG-13 | 2010)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best romantic dramas of all time?
Flickchart Ranking: #16074
|
Julia Roberts doing what the title says with James Franco, Billy Crudup and Javier Bardem.
I’m Still Here (DVD and Blu-ray | NR | 2010)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best “documentaries” of all time?
Flickchart Ranking: #11436
|
Joaquin Phoenix’s fake meltdown on film.
The Disappearance of Alice Creed (DVD and Blu-ray | R | 2009)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best thrillers of all time?
Flickchart Ranking: #12839
|
Gemma Arterton is held hostage.
The Winning Season (DVD | PG-13 | 2009)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best comedic sports movies of all time?
Flickchart Ranking: #4619
|
One of the strangest sports movie casts ever assembled with Sam Rockwell, Rob Corddry and Emma Roberts.
