Why isn't in Top 250 Movies anymore?!


How it is that possible? It is one of the greatest movie ever made. The great story, the ending, the editing, the acting, the everything.. So, I can't believe that Black Swan and and The Wrestler are gone from Top 250 Movies now. Just still keep Nolan's Batman movies there.

There's something wrong with Esther.

Movies that are much more likely to get in and stay in the top 250, are movies that have a big scope and great cinematography/visual effects. Not low budget, raw, gritty, depressing movies like The Wrestler. It's just what people want. Most people acknowledge that it's an amazing movie but it's not easy to re-watch it and people didn't take pleasure in watching it cos it takes a lot out of you emotionally. It's just one of those movies.

I still haven't mustered up the strength to watch this for a second time. I was in a depressed mood for a week or two after seeing this movie.

Because the majority of white people could really care less about a poor white guy struggling. You could put Donald Trump blah blah blah. Nobody cared about the servants. Were in a service economy to begin with

Amen, jjpiccio. Sad state of affairs. And even woes is the poor white people struggling posting endless rants on Facebook about how Trump will make us great again! Because nobody cares about poor working people like an ultra rich white guy with an ego to match...we are so screwed.

This is one of the greatest films of this century, IMHO. Doesn't surprise me it's not in the top 250, however. Like a poster said...nobody cares about poor working people...
