IMDB Top 250 in 2 1/2 Minutes

IMDB Top 250 in 2 1/2 Minutes

This is one incredible list of films/movies. If Peter Weyland wanted
David to learn about cinema while the crew of Prometheus was still in
hyper sleep, he’d probably have him go down the IMDB Top 250. This
list does change infrequently, and I began the project over a month
prior to November 1, 2012, so attention to my haters…Yes…I KNOW
some of these movies are not on the top 250. 53 Titles to be exact
(as of 11/1/12). However, none of my haters can tell me that any of
these 303 titles do not exist on IMDB.

From what I can gather, each film that makes it on the list has to have a rating of at least 8/10 on IMDB. After all this is a democracy, so each film does appear because of a substantial amount of votes. However, I couldn’t put “The Avengers” in without “Ferris Bueller”, and I wasn’t going to let “Scarface” slide if “Bringing Out The Dead” wasn’t in there too.

Either way, I hope you all enjoy it.

The song, by the way, can be found here on youtube. It is a mashup
mix of Joan Jett, The Beatles, House of Pain and Cypress Hill by the
very talented DJ FAROFF. His opens with a cut from Rage Against The
Machine, but it didn’t work with the video.

After the last two videos (163 Horror Films in 2.5 Minutes and Dance of the Criterion Collection), I had a lot of support and motivation from many bloggers, heroes and friend who deserve a special call out.

Very Special Thanks to Susan Arosteguy, Steve Griffen and Kim
Hendrickson of The Criterion Collection, Roger Ebert and The Chicago
Sun Times, Uncle Creepy and Bloody Disgusting, Dan Adler, Kyle Wilken,
Flying Lotus and the gang at Brainfeeder, Brian South, Kira South,
Drew Miller, Samantha Mantor and of course, Tiffany Smith who without
her patience, support, tolerance and encouragement I would have thrown
my lap top out of a window.

Please Enjoy, Share and Create.

(*Something else I must add while this video is currently at 700,000 views in its second day. The joy of people responding to this positively is not something I have the ability to wrap into a few words. Thank you everyone for liking it so much, and those of you who don’t, I’m sorry it’s just not your cup of tea. But allow me to set some rumors floating around a little straight. I made this because I don’t feel like a blog full of words is going to express how much I love film. I made it because it’s the supercut I would really like to see. And nobody…I mean NOBODY is seeing a dime from this. This also is not an “eff you to censorship and copyrights”, by any means. Every clip on here, including the song, can ALL be found streaming elsewhere on multiple YouTube accounts. This just keeps you from clicking and searching 303 different videos (304 including the song). This is made by and for people who love movies, that’s it, end of story.)
