I asked about this too, either on here on facebook. A great option. time to see if one of those not so often rated films that just happened to come up against my number 1 film can work their way into the middle of the pack.

I have rated both and am working on rerating Yojimbo into my top 10. Absolutely superb. Thank you for that. I hope that everyone gives them the votes they deserve.

New Categories a success

Man, there are loads and loads of new Genres, and I feel like they are beautifully able to encapsulate my preferences in films. Great to see that diversification

What I found when I have one or two movies ranked too highly (I had Gremlins 2 at number 61 for a long time because it was presumably one of the earliest films I rated and as such was disproportionately high) is that it is worth removing them from my flickchart, then finding them again and reranking them 2 or 3 times. A bit of a bother, but it certainly gets the job done.

I am a big fan of Repo: The Genetic Opera, but let's be honest, when it comes to completing a complex database, there are probably more pressing films to add than this.

Hey, that is one swift reply. :) I know it is a difficult difficult task to try and add loads. As stated, I believe that even with more contemporary and modern focus, Yojimbo in particular is of such modern relevance, in addition to its quality, that perhaps it merits consideration. Hope you get to it, so I can rank it up to my top 10. Thanks for the reply, and keep up the good work.

Broadening the Kurosawa collection

One of cinema's greatest directors, Akira Kurosawa, is a bit underrepresented. His epic catalogue of films should be part of such a great database. At the very least, I believe that Yojimbo must be added, as it is the basis for a number of remakes including a few spaghetti westerns, and the modern day "Last Man Standing". To omit Yojimbo is a great disservice to such a great site.
