Rank this week’s Blu-ray and DVD releases against the best movies of all-time
Toy Story 3 (DVD and Blu-ray | G | 2010)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best animated movies of all time?
Flickchart Ranking: #1571
|
Toy Story 3 currently sits in the top 6% of my Flickchart, so I preface the next statement by saying I do really like it. I do think it will drop a bit over time though. I don’t want to spoil too much but if it had ended about 7 minutes earlier, Toy Story 3 would have been an absolute masterpiece. Thelma and Louise is memorable because it doesn’t end with the characters magically sprouting parachutes after they drive off the cliff and then having a tacked on ending to make you reach for the tissues even more. I know it’s unrealistic because it’s ultimately a kids movie but part of me wishes Toy Story 3 could have just ended in the dump.
Centurion (DVD and Blu-ray | R | 2010)

An excellent looking, bad-ass Romans fighting barbarians movie from director Neil Marshall (The Descent).

Flickchart Ranking: #12976

Do you consider any of this week’s Blu-ray and DVD releases to be one of the Best films of All-Time?
Splice (DVD and Blu-ray | R | 2009)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best science fiction horror movies of all time?
Flickchart Rank: #4719
|
Adrien Brody stars in the new movie I’m looking most forward to this Tuesday. I love science fiction stories about experiments gone wrong and it looks like most Flickchart users have been rating this one very well.
The Karate Kid (DVD and Blu-ray | PG | 2010)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best martial arts movies of all time?
Flickchart Rank: #5065
|
I generally am OK with remakes if for no other reason than they finally give me some incentive to watch the original. The original was a solid little Rocky-clone and everything I’ve heard about this modern remake seems to be pretty positive too.
A Nightmare on Elm Street (DVD & Blu-ray | R | 2010)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best slasher movies of all time?
Flickchart Rank: #5577
|
Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy Krueger.
The Human Centipede (DVD & Blu-ray | NR | 2009)

How would you rank it amongst the best sadistic horror movies of all time?
Flickchart Rank: #6603

I don’t have the stomach to watch a human centipede in action but I am impressed by how nuts this movie seems to be.
The Secret of Kells (DVD & Blu-ray | NR | 2009)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best animated movies of all time?
Flickchart Rank: #6523

Best Animated feature nominee at 2010′s Oscars. Also on Netflix Instant Watch this week.

Jesse Eisenberg stars in one of those movies about a young Jewish man dealing drugs that seems to come out every few years.
Space Chimps 2: Zartog Strikes Back (DVD (DTV) | PG | 2010)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best animal movies of all time?
Flickchart Rank: Just Added
|
I actually kinda liked the first Space Chimps. It’s a little ridiculous, brightly-colored and features some decent voice acting. Can’t say I’m excited to see what a DTV sequel looks like though.
30 Days of Night: Dark Days (DVD and Blu-ray (DTV) | R | 2010)
 |
How would you rank it amongst the best monster movies of all time?
Flickchart Rank: #17730
