The last two and a half pages demonstrates how not to debate this topic.
Please heed Anchorhead’s post above.
The thread is now unlocked. Do not continue the aforementioned ‘debate’ - thank you.
We start afresh…
And also, a reminder about this thread in general:-
This is just a ranking thread - it means little at the end of the day; some films are liked more than others, for what could be considered the ‘strangest’ or personal of reasons - and we know from posting on here we each have our quirks, eccentricities and somewhat different views. And opinions, even previously staunch ones, may change over time…
Some people may only actually give a stuff about 5/6 films and just include others for the sake of being completionist. Some may not be able recall their own preferred ranking of the films the day after…
This all really isn’t worth getting worked up over - please stop with the circular and repetitive arguments that your opinion is right and someone else’s is wrong, or that someone should rank film X over film Y. It’s tiresome and come a point where members are reluctant to post in here for getting ridiculed or told they are ‘wrong’.
By all means ask why someone feels why film X is over film Y - yet do it with some respect and civility - we may even learn something…
Some people love their first ever car (which may be a piece of shite to many others), some have a special place for their first crush or love (NOT still being kept in a dungeon), or the first hi-fi they saved up for with pocket money or from their 1st wage etc. You don’t ridicule them for it - so please don’t have a pop at someone for liking The Holiday Special over Empire etc…
