So they combine imdb rankings, which are based on votes of registered users there, and some combination of rottentomatoes critic rankings and audience reviews. What a mess.
This ranking by averaging a bunch of opinions reminds of a quote from the great physicist Richard Feynman: "I couldn't claim that I was smarter than sixty-five other guys--but the average of sixty-five other guys, certainly!"
It's an interesting list, mostly of the older decades, but I don't take rankings like this seriously. I'd rather find a single critic whose opinions generally agreed with my taste and go by that one critic's reviews.
