How is it possible that the top ten films on the site drastically change every five minutes?

Lately I have been browsing the top ten reviewed films, and often times the majority of them are not worth watching. Sometimes they're ranked so high because they only have one vote of 5 stars in every category. A recent example: Harold:The Hitman ... It boggles my mind.

I think the reviewing standard must be changed so that the number of reviews plays a larger role in determinig whether a film is on the top ten; e.g. a film with 4 and a half stars and 50 reviews would be ranked higher than a film with 5 stars and only one review. So basically, there should be a review ceiling of at least, say, 30 reviews. That way the top ten reviewed films stay more consistant and worthwhile.

...just a thought.

I had thought of that a while ago but was too lazy to post anything, but i totally agree. The number of reviews should count in the ranking system.

Of course, there is also people like yourself. You watch the film, and think its bad. Review it as such. One 5 star, and one 1 star mean it will probablly never hit the top ten again. Thats whats cool to me. You have the power to knock it out of there. Just a thought.

Well I bet the top ten is automaticallly generated and it would be a major pain for the Admin to change it. But having a featured film picked once a month with possible production notes and what not would be great.

I hate not knowing how the film was done or how it was shot or the process. Having a monthly in-depth presentation of a real good film would be cool.

I would feel like such a killjoy...but from now on I'll do it.

I guess someone already did it for me...it's gone from the top ten.
